Students will explore our Solar System using an online simulation. Students will collect data based on distance from the sun, rotational period, orbital period, and average temperature of each planet. Students will then answer analysis questions based on the data they collected.
Students will complete an online lab about static electricity, construct an electroscope, and design and conduct and experiment using their electroscopes. This is a fun way to kick start a unit centered around static electricity. My students really enjoyed constructing these and seeing how they worked.
Students will create a never before heard of creature and determine where that creature belongs in an ecosystem and how it interacts with other organisms within that ecosystem. Includes project instructions and grading rubric - both editable for your convenience.
Powerpoint covers thermal energy transfer (conduction, convection, and radiation) thermal expansion and contraction, and thermal insulators and conductors.
Great for teaching check writing skills or using for projects! I used these for a project in which my students had to write checks for building materials! Comes with checks and a transaction register
Students solve physics problems dealing with momentum, impulse, inelastic, and elastic collisions. Instead of letters, the numbers fit together in a crossword puzzle. Great for review! My AP Physics students loved this activity. Includes answer key!
A hyperdoc that guides students' learning, starting from the basics of gravity, to how gravitational forces change based on the size and mass of celestial bodies. Document download is a PDF, which includes a link to an editable Google doc. You will want to create your own links for the Answer Garden and Padlet Prompts so that you can access your students responses. Includes: Videos Reading AnswerGarden Prompts Padlet Prompts Gravitational Force Interactive
Each student gets a famous scientist card, however they cannot look at it.They must rely on others in class to answer yes or no questions about their scientist. Each card includes a few helpful hints. I always have them introduce themselves before they ask questions. Students may tape their cards to their head or simply hold it. This is a great first-day activity! My students were really into it. Includes famous scientists, mathematicians, and inventors! Even some fun fictional ones! This is
Students compare the parts of an electrical circuit to systems and processes that they experience in real life, and then create a visual comparison (poster). For example, I had students compare the parts of an electrical circuit to parts of the brain, the hallway at school, the grocery store, etc.
A quick guide for students as they practice solving kinematic formulas. Includes: Basic kinematic formulasAdvanced kinematic formulasVectors/Scalar QuantitiesExample Problems with answers
El Nino and La Nina Hyperdoc Have students create their own copy to turn in digitally in Google Classrooms or Canvas. Students will learn about the effects of El Nino events, create a mind map, and a venn diagram comparing El Nino and La Nina Events.
General InformationA bundle of two worksheets on the mathematics of energy conservation Worksheet focusing on gravitational potential energy and kinetic energyWorksheet that includes interactions between gravitational potential, elastic potential, and kinetic energiesSolutions for all problems and worksheets, that are worked out step by step, are included Other Info:Gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s/sProblems do not include friction or air resistance
Students work in groups to design a biosphere that will be able to sustain itself in a mason jar. I had the students observe and record changes that took place over a two-week period. I provided some of the materials for my students, but many brought in their own.
Students create a postcard from another celestial body from outside of our solar system. They utilize the space hierarchy as their address. They also research other bodies outside of our solar system.
Students solve word problems using distance, speed, and time. As students solve the problems correctly, pixels of a secret image appear on the screen. This puzzle requires very basic math and knowledge of units. Once the entire puzzle is solved correctly, a dinosaur will appear! Answer Key included!
Engage your students in a hands-on activity that explores the fascinating predator-prey relationship between snowshoe hares (rabbits) and Canadian lynx. Using real historical data from the Hudson's Bay Company fur trade records, students will graph population trends over time and analyze the cyclical patterns of these species. This activity emphasizes key ecological concepts, including carrying capacity, population cycles, and ecosystem dynamics.
