SCIENCE LESSON – Physical and Chemical Changes

By:  The Owl Teacher

Grades 3-6

When I taught fifth grade, I just loved the physical and chemical changes unit!  It was so much fun and really engaged my students.  So I have put it together for you!

This unit was so engaging because it is just packed full of hands-on experiments where students really dig into the properties of matter and determine what makes a physical change and what makes a chemical change.

For instance, we melt styrofoam cups:

melting cups

We also created slime:

We explored the various properties of matter!  We looked closely at the three states – solid, liquid, and gas!

 We talked about a variety of scenerios where students had to determine if something was a physical or chemical change!

Included in this engaging resource are practice sheets and review sheets, answer keys, lesson plans, experimental labs, and much more!  You’ll even find some interactive notebook pieces such as this:

I am not affiliated in any way with these entities and any and all claims of alignment are my claims, not those of the groups behind the TEKS or STAAR test. Please contact me if you have questions.

FREE SCIENCE LESSON – “Introduction to Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics”

by The Science Vault

7th – 10th Grade

 

continental drift

 

This is a 10 slide powerpoint that introduces the concepts of continental drift and plate tectonics. It includes colorful pictures, powerpoint animations and a link to an online animation of global plate reconstructions.

The slides include a short discussion of the evidence Alfred Wegener used to develop his theory of continental drift, namely:

geographical fit of continents
fossils match across oceans
rock type and structure match across oceans
ancient glacial features

This powerpoint is meant to be a “starting point” for introducing the topic of continental drift and plate tectonics and gives you a base from which to delve deeper into the topic with your students.

I am offering it free here on Teachers Pay Teachers so that you can see the quality of my work and at the same time, get something that you can use today in your classroom.

You can find the complete powerpoint (50 slides in all) here:
Continental Drift and Plate Tectonics with Animations

This is a winter solstice activity. It is a great introduction or reinforcement to why we have seasons, and a fun, short, science activity to do right before a winter break.

It includes a little bit of information about winter celebrations around the world, and then an exploration into the ‘reason for the seasons.’ It is appropriate for middle school or high school.

This lesson can be done as a whole group activity with a projector to show the map, or by printing out the map ahead of time, or individual or small groups on a computer.

FREE SCIENCE LESSON – “STEM Engineering Challenge: Make a Table”

by Lopez Land Learners

3rd – 12th Grade

 

build a table

 

Engineering Challenges are an exciting part of the new NGSS Standards. I love the collaboration and team building that these projects bring to my classroom. My students LOVE the excitement and engagement that naturally occurs while they are actively participating!

In this challenge, students are given 3 types of material and have to collaborate on what kind of table they can make. The team sketches a design they all agree they can create and then set out on the journey to build a table. I do not set a timer, but this activity is easily adaptable to any changes you want to add, such as a timer or adding a different variable.

Perfect for grades 3 and beyond. I have used this with adults and the results are just as eye opening and engaging!

SCIENCE LESSON – “Force and Motion”

By:  The Owl Teacher

Grades 2-5 Science

There are lots of science activities on the web, but how many of them come with complete lesson plans that will walk you through teaching Force and Motion step-by-step?  I get it.  Some teachers feel a bit “iffy” when it comes to teaching science.  You don’t have to be with all my science units!  I write them out detailed with step-by-step directions for the new teacher all the way to the veteran teacher!

Force and Motion Science Unit

This unit is a fun and engaging way to get your students HOOKED on science and have a passion for learning!  This force and motion science unit explores force and motion concepts such as push and pull, gravity, friction, and much more – complete with practice sheets to reinforce the concepts and hands-on experiments!

You can read all about the fun my class had with this unit here at my blog!

Reptiles Scavenger Hunt!

 

Slide1I started making these scavenger hunts to support science in my classroom. However, what I found was that these hunts are a great way to also support reading.  Students read to find information about reptiles and then answer questions.  It works great a supplement to your science curriculum.

 

Reptile Scavenger Hunt

 

Here is a picture of the task cards. There are 20 total task cards.  Hang them up around the room and it lets kids get moving while they answering questions. Trust me they will love this activity, my students beg for them.

 

Slide6

Here is a picture of what the question pages look like.  One thing that I will be doing next year to extend my higher kids, is to have them write their own questions.  The lower learners can still participate with the already made questions.

Slide2

 

This is my first science scavenger hunt, but I’m working on more this summer.  If you have a topic you would like a scavenger hunt for leave a comment for this post with your email and topic.

 

Thanks,

Stories to Keep Students Engaged

Now that school is winding down, teachers often find themselves looking for that extra reading passage to keep kids engaged. I wrote these five original stories, which come complete with activities. 

https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Short-Stories-for-Classrooms-Complete-With-Activities-1763051

In this bundle, you will find the following:


Nonfiction Sports Story With Expository Writing Activity 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This nonfiction story depicts Josh Pastner, coach of the University of Memphis Tiger Basketball Team. His motivational story is quite impressive and provides a great model for kids. I have also provided directions for kids to write an essay about what they read in the story. Nonfiction writing is high on the common core expectations, and this activity is perfect for providing high interest curriculum and current events.

Help! I’ve Misplaced My Modifier. Humorous Story to Explain Misplaced Modifiers 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This humorous story helps students to learn about misplaced modifiers. Students are given the task of finding the misplaced modifiers in this story about a child’s birthday party. Answer key included.

Electromagnetic Energy Story (Creative Writing Activity about Science) 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This creative story shows the path of electricity from a neutron’s point of view. Students are asked to write their own stories that relate to a scientific topic.

The World’s Most Loyal Dog: A Nonfiction Story With Questions 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

I am an author as well as a teacher, and I wrote this story about Hachiko, the amazing Japanese dog who spent about a decade waiting at a train station for his master who had died. This story comes complete with vocabulary and comprehension questions.

Beware of Cooties 

Here’s a bonus story that one cannot buy individually on TPT. I fear it will never find a home due to its shocking ending, but none-the-less, it’s one of my favorites that must be shared. If you dare to share it with the kids, I promise they’ll get a laugh. Enjoy!

I have plenty of stories and reading activities at my TPT store. Won’t you please stop by?

Science Lesson – Earth Day Webquest

Intermediate Science Lesson

By Brittany Washburn

Earth_Day_cover

Send your students to the computer and let them work independently through 8 interactive websites. A reading passage with vocabulary is included to help them answer the 4 essential questions. In my classroom I have my students answer the questions in their notebooks so that I can check for understanding when I review their notebooks. This can be done all at once (45 minutes for most students) or over several days in the classroom.
