This scientific method report template is an easy to follow blank template where students are guided through each step of the scientific method. Students are presented with a real-world example of how the scientific method works. It then provides students an opportunity to choose their own experiment as they are guided through the 7 steps of the scientific method. As an added bonus, this resource provides students with examples of graphs and how to use them when writing their science report.

Pulling off fun science experiments for students can be an exhausting task, but this scientific method outline template will have your students wanting to come back for more, as they are the ones guiding their own learning. This is truly a teacher’s best friend!

Included in this resource

• Teacher Tips & Tricks on how to use this resource.
• Literacy Read – introducing students to the scientific method via a real-world example they can relate to. This is great for a CLOSE reading text.
• Link to various science experiments for kids.
• Lab report pages with a detailed explanation of the task.
• Graph reference sheet.

Resources you may also love that are aligned to the NGSS standards ❤️

• Scientific Method Worksheets, Digital, Distance Learning (grades 6-8) – perfect for the distance learning student. Comes embedded with audio clips of the material on each slide, virtual lab simulations, reflection prompts throughout the lesson, a formative, google forms quiz, and an extension activity or an intervention review to make differentiation a snap.
• Scientific Method Worksheets, Digital AND Print, Distance Learning (grades 6-8) — the best of both worlds.  This resource has everything the digital interactive notebook has,  plus it includes printable interactive notebook pages and in-class lab stations.  This is for the teacher who needs BOTH distant learning resources AND in-class resources.
• Scientific Method Lab (grades 6-8) worksheets with answer key.
• Scientific Method Notes (grades 6-8) tailored to the struggling, medium, and high-level learner.  Completely student-driven and NO PREP for the teachers.  Each slide is embedded with an audio clip of the material on the slide.

6th – 12th Grade

This 18-page catalog includes learning intentions, success criteria, vocabulary, technology links, and student-centered commentary for 13 learning experiences in chemistry, comprising an entire introductory unit of the course. Topics include reasons to study chemistry, the scientific method, basic chemistry terminology, the periodic table, physical and chemical properties, mass, volume, density, states of matter, kinetic molecular theory, forces of attraction, temperature, direction of heat flow and phase change, physical / chemical change and chemical equations, chemical reactions and equations, and the laws of conservation.

Though this resource is not a collection of complete classroom lessons, it does describe the lesson PowerPoints and digital, distance learning lessons which will post to my store within the coming weeks. It is perfect for physical science or chemistry teachers who are looking for ideas as they contemplate how they might (1) create a more student-centered environment in their classroom and/or (2) deliver complex content in a coherent way to achieve deep learning in a virtual classroom.

Each learning experience outlined uses technology to prompt a scientific-method-based investigation that builds critical thinking skills and provides the potential to produce artifacts that can be used to demonstrate learning and mastery. The technologies outlined are free, easily accessible and compliment diverse learning styles. In this free, preview catalog, suggestions for guided questions and/or graphic organizers are not included.

A complete edition that includes suggested guiding questions, graphic organizers, and data tables, along with real student artifacts is available for purchase.

Each individual learning experience can be purchased from my store, just search for the lesson title. Additionally, a complete catalog of learning experiences for an entire first semester is also available for purchase.

7th – 10th Grade

In this download you will find a menu similar to what you would find in a restaurant including items such as an appetizer, an entree, side dishes, and deserts. The way this is used, instead of food there are a variety of assignments that students can complete to show their mastery of their understanding of Plant Cells and Animal Cells. Some of the assignments include describing living things, describing the differences between cells, drawing and labeling cells, and creating flash cards.

So to use this, you will need to print out the pages included and students will need to have index cards to use for one of the assignments. The first assignment represents the appetizer (something that people share) because everyone completes it, it. Next the students can pick their entree (similar to ordering one meal), and they can pick just one of those listed assignments. Then with the entree comes two sides which students can then also pick which two of the three. For early finishers there is a desert that is entirely optional (great for extra credit!).

The reason why I made this was because I want students to feel like they have a choice in their assignments. I teach 7th grade and often times they just want the option of getting to choose their assignment. It is a great assignment for homework, amazing for centers (by having some students work on the entree or side dishes), and can also be used as class work.

I am in the process of updating my other menu boards as well to reflect this new and updated look and style, so be sure if you are in my store and want to see others, to click on menu/choice boards on the left hand side to see more.

This is a play on the symbols from the Periodic Table of the Elements. Using the symbols for Thorium, Iodine, Nitrogen, and Potassium you can create the word “ThINK.” Great for any science or chemistry classroom. Could be used for bulletin boards or anywhere you want people to “ThINK”! Thanks!

6th – 8th Grade

A free sample of three different puzzle worksheets from my sets of Next Genertion Science Standards review puzzles for middle school physical science that have students practice critical thinking skills and apply concepts from DOK level 1 and 2 needed to grapple with the performance expectations for NGSS MS-PS-2-2, NGSS MS-PS-3-1 and NGSS MS-PS-1-1

Great for stations, homework, early finishers or emergency sub plans.

FREE Sample Includes these three Puzzles

1) What would you get if you crossed Christmas with St. Patrick’s Day? NGSS PS-1-1

• This puzzle requires students to use data about the mass and volume of 8 different coins and a data table to determine the letter code for solving the riddle.
• Students can be expected to know the formula for density and fill it in the provided space or you can give students the formula in advance.
• Coin 4 requires students to use deduction skills to determine the correct volume of the coin.
• Density is a physical property of matter and is a commonly used as evidence to identify specific types of matter as described in NGSS PS-1-1

2) What movie do teenage ghosts love to watch? NGSS PS3-1-1

• Halloween Themed (Ghost) puzzle.
• Questions require students to calculate work, and potential energy using the provided formulas.
• Also to work with kinetic energy quantitatively (have to determine the new amount of Kinetic Energy if the Mass is halved or doubled while the speed stays the same or if the speed doubles, while the mass stays the same)

3) What do you get when you cross a lizard and a bee? NGSS 2-2

• Students solve net force diagrams to determine the missing force to put the object into equilibrium (net force = 0N)

CONTAINS

Cover, TOU and teacher notes (3 pages)

3 different Puzzles with Answer Keys (6 pages)

6th – 8th Grade

This is a card game using original photographs of rock types. Players use a rock cycle sheet as a reference during the game. The object of the game is to build rock cycles and win cards along the way. An important learning outcome of this game is that students will be able to explain the rock as a cycle with many combinations and outcomes. A fun game for any earth science classroom.
