In this science reading passage and worksheet, we will explore the wonders of the sun and its daily journey across the sky. We'll learn how the sun provides light and warmth, making our days bright and cheerful. But have you ever wondered where the sun goes at night? Let's find out together!
Immerse your students in a thought-provoking exploration of the devastating impact of oil spills on our oceans with this engaging worksheet and hands-on experiment. This resource combines an informative reading passage with a captivating experiment to deepen students' understanding of the consequences of oil spills and the importance of effective cleanup methods.
Engage your students in a hands-on exploration of water erosion with this worksheet This activity and reading passage is designed to help students understand the fascinating process of erosion and its effects on the Earth's surface while giving students a nonfiction text to read and discuss.
This physics lab worksheet focuses on exploring the concepts of collision and momentum using a simulation. The lab is designed to engage students by interacting with a digital simulation of two balls slamming into each other. Students will make predictions, and analyze outcomes. Students will develop a deeper understanding of momentum, velocities, and the differences between elastic and inelastic collisions. It is suitable for middle school and high school physics or physical science classes.
Students will be engaged in hands-on experimentation and discover the principles of motion and collision through a series of captivating lab exercises.
Lab Setup: To begin, set up the lab by placing one end of the track on two reading books and the other end on a pencil, creating a slanted track. The angle of the track will determine the direction of the marble movement.
Just print the paper on cardstock. Cut out the words and the prefixes. Then time the students to see how long it takes to match the correct prefixes to the root words.
I use this in my class with those students who aren't quite getting how to round yet. They either sit with me or a para pro and discuss these questions.
This is one of the papers I have my students' parents fill out each year at the beginning of the school year. This helps me know a little more about the student from the parent's perspective.
This is the rubric I use to grade each student's science experiment that they present to the class.
