Here is a great new spin on learning the rock cycle. This tool allows teachers and students to choose which processes to apply to a any rock...melting, weathering, heat and /or pressure...and then to see what happens next. When you click on one of the process buttons, the slide automatically advances to the proper location. This will show the students which processes are possible and which are not. The more you use the tutorial, the better you get at predicting the outcome. If you like this,

This is just a simple worksheet that introduces or reviews the similarities and differences between mixtures, compounds, and solutions, along with examples and practice.

Dear Teacher, This is a simple and effective way to either demonstrate a controlled experiment, or to assign your students a safe, meaningful lab. All you need is a few simple materials. I have also included a quiz at the end with an answer key. This lab covers topics and terms such as scientific method, controlled experiment hypothesis, independent and dependent variables, constants, etc. This presentation works best if you can alter it as you go. You can also change it to suit your needs or

FUN whole class activity! Being able to make observations and then inferences based on those observations is a very valuable skills to have in the science classroom, other subjects, and in life. This activity is a great way to introduce these skills or to reinforce them. The activity is led by the teacher from a SmartBoard or projector and can be easily completed in one class period. The file is designed so that the teacher simply clicks through the slides and the students follow along.
