Ionic & Covalent Bonds | Chemical Bonding | Interactive Notes, PPT & Video

Created by
Ysci
Ionic and covalent bonds come to life through interactive notes, a PowerPoint presentation, and an animated video. Students explore how atoms transfer or share electrons to form compounds and practice identifying whether a bond is ionic or covalent. These interactive notes can be used alongside the PowerPoint for direct instruction or paired with the animated video for independent or blended learning. Each format reinforces key ideas in chemical bonding through engaging visuals, analogies, and g

Balancing Chemical Equations | Hands-On Lab with Manipulatives

Created by
Ysci
Balancing chemical equations with hands-on manipulatives lets students model chemical reactions and apply the Law of Conservation of Mass. In this hands-on chemistry lab, students balance seven equations, record their results, and create visual representations in their lab sheet. The analysis section guides them to connect their models to the Law of Conservation of Mass, reinforcing that matter is neither created nor destroyed during a reaction. This activity builds a strong conceptual foundatio

Metals, Nonmetals & Metalloids | Interactive Notes, PPT & Video

Created by
Ysci
Help students classify metals, nonmetals, and metalloids using these interactive notes a PowerPoint, and an animated video. This NGSS-aligned resource reinforces key concepts from Structure and Properties of Matter, helping students connect an element’s location on the periodic table to its physical properties, such as luster, conductivity, and malleability, through engaging visuals, color-coded comparisons, and scaffolded questions. Students can complete the notes while you lead the PowerPoint

Exercise & Homeostasis Lab | Circulatory & Respiratory Systems | NGSS MS-LS1-3

Created by
Ysci
Help students explore how exercise affects heart rate, breathing rate, and homeostasis in this hands-on body systems lab. Students collect and analyze data to discover how the circulatory and respiratory systems work together to maintain internal balance. This low-prep investigation gets students up and moving while exploring feedback mechanisms and system interactions. It includes three scaffolded graphing options, labeled (guided), open-ended (student-created), and no-graph (digital or quick u

Genetic Mutations Activity | Harmful, Beneficial & Neutral | MS-LS3-1

Created by
Ysci
Challenge a common misconception about genetic mutations and make it stick. Most middle school students believe genetic mutations are always dangerous. This NGSS MS-LS3-1 genetic mutations activity gives them the evidence to think differently and the scientific reasoning to explain why genetic mutations can be harmful, beneficial, or neutral. Students trace three real-world gene mutations (lactase persistence, Huntington's disease, and MC1R skin tone variation) from DNA change to protein change

Anchor the lesson in a real phenomenon students can't explain yet.Show students a video of heart cells beating in a dish. Don't tell them what they're looking at. Then guide them through the science they need to answer one question: why can these cells beat on their own, but can't survive on their own? This NGSS MS-LS1-3 and HS-LS1-2 body systems activity gives students the structure to figure it out. Students build understanding of the circulatory and respiratory systems step by step, connect b

Created by
Ysci
Bring NGSS to life with this Body Systems & Homeostasis Bundle, combining interactive notes and a hands-on lab for a complete, three-dimensional lesson sequence. Students first build background knowledge on how the circulatory and respiratory systems work together through guided notes, then apply that understanding in a real-world exercise and homeostasis investigation. In the Body Systems Interactive Notes, students learn how oxygen delivery, carbon dioxide removal, and cellular respiration c

Teaching style

I believe students learn best when they can see how science connects to the world they live in. That’s why the materials in this store are designed to: - Show real-life connections so abstract ideas feel relevant and exciting - Spark curiosity with activities that invite students to explore, question, and discover - Engage visually through clear diagrams, creative notes, and interactive elements These resources are truly a team effort. My husband is a graphic designer and animator, and together we collaborate to bring science to life: combining strong instruction with professional visuals, creative manipulatives, and even animated videos (check us out on YouTube). Our collaboration blends teaching and design. Our shared mission is simple: make science fun, approachable, and unforgettable for students, while giving teachers resources they can count on.
