Students will investigate the force of gravity and the impact of air resistance through hands-on drop tests and a biographical video about Sir Isaac Newton. They will analyze why objects of different masses and shapes fall at varying speeds.
A highly visual, adapted science unit for 3rd and 4th graders exploring the properties of matter, the physical nature of air, states of matter, and thermal changes. It features errorless sorting activities, heavy visual supports, simplified vocabulary, and structured lab guides designed for diverse learners.
An interactive third-grade science lesson introducing basic, water-related, and desert landforms. Students act as Earth Explorers, analyzing how natural forces sculpt our planet's surface through a visually rich presentation, hands-on journaling, and cooperative challenges.
A 3-page visual answer key for the Cosmic Eyes Review Packet. It duplicates the student review packet structure exactly but fills in all blanks, checkboxes, matching challenges, and written reflection prompts in a distinct green handwritten font.
A targeted science intervention sequence designed to help struggling 4th-grade students master experimental design, variables, and hypotheses through structured, tiered supports (Tier 3 and Tier 2) and highly visual learning aids.
A 3rd-grade exploration of Earth's landforms, guiding students to identify major land features, water-related landforms, and investigate their local geography using high-impact explorer-themed visual anchor charts and field logs.
A 2-page visual answer key for the Cosmic Eyes Quiz. It replicates the student-facing layout exactly but clearly highlights the correct answers in green with checked icons, allowing teachers to grade assessments at a glance.
A comprehensive teacher professional development and model lesson plan sequence. It equips educators with hands-on mineral testing protocols, inquiry-based (3D) NGSS teaching strategies, geological vocabulary support, and formative assessment tools for grades 4-8.
An inquiry-based science lesson aligned with TEKS 4.5A where 4th-grade students measure, compare, and classify physical properties of matter including mass, volume, magnetism, density, and conductivity.
A 2-page print-ready teacher instructional planner and resource guide containing pacing, script prompts, hands-on activity blueprints, and a complete answer key for the explorer log.
An interactive, highly visual ecosystem unit designed for 7th/8th grade MCAS standards but adapted to a 4th-grade reading and comprehension level. The unit explores abiotic/biotic factors, energy flow, interactions, and disruptions through hands-on activities, adapted readings, visual slides, and scaffolded assessments.
An accommodated science lesson covering telescope technology, optical vs. radio systems, reflecting vs. refracting designs, and the history of space observation (including Hubble and Galileo). Features high-scaffolding review materials and a fresh, aligned assessment.
A 2-page print-ready student explorer journal matching the field guide slides, featuring sketching boxes, write-in description lines, and a landform matching activity.
