Una lección introductoria a la programación de videojuegos usando MakeCode Arcade, cubriendo lógica de bucles, coordenadas y eventos para estudiantes de 6to grado.
A high-stakes collaborative escape room where student teams navigate five distinct rooms of a mysterious manor, solving interconnected puzzles to solve a murder.
Students carry out a formal investigation comparing large and small samples of pure substances to prove which properties stay the same and which change, fulfilling standard PS.6.1.3.
A focus on intensive properties that remain constant regardless of sample size, including density, melting point, boiling point, and solubility. Students use doodle notes to visualize these 'identity' traits.
An introduction to matter and properties that change based on the amount of a substance, specifically mass, weight, and volume. Students explore how these measurements vary with sample size.
A comprehensive introduction to the pH scale, covering the characteristics of acids and bases, the logarithmic nature of the scale, and real-world applications across three differentiated levels (5th, 7th, and 9th grade).
A comprehensive assessment focused on the principles of waste management, specifically the 4 R's (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse) and essential environmental vocabulary.
A foundational lesson on Photoshop clipping masks, covering the 'layer sandwich' concept and the technical steps to clip images into shapes.
A comprehensive introduction to the pH scale, its presence in everyday substances, and its critical role in environmental health. Students will engage in a hands-on lab to test household liquids and discuss real-world impacts like ocean acidification. Updated with purple indicator lab.
An extension lesson for a water filtration lab focusing on the chemical properties of water and the real-world impact of pollution on local ecosystems.
A comprehensive lesson for 6th-grade students exploring the three methods of thermal energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Students will learn to identify these processes in everyday scenarios through visual diagrams and interactive examples.
A project-based lesson where students create a poster advocating for sunscreen use in Australia, focusing on the biological and environmental factors that increase skin cancer risk in the region.
Students present their evolution maps and prototypes in a class showcase and reflect on the project.
Students design and prototype the future version of their technology, considering ethics and sustainability.
Students analyze the societal impact of their chosen technology, focusing on communication, privacy, and environmental changes.
Students investigate the evolution of household technology, comparing historical devices with modern equivalents and predicting future innovations while analyzing their impact on society.
Exploring the rise of 'Smart' homes, automation, and the Internet of Things (IoT), culminating in a design project for a future household helper.
Tracing the history of home entertainment and communication, comparing analog technologies of the past with today's digital streaming landscape.
An investigation into how kitchen technology has evolved to solve the problems of cooking, preservation, and preparation, from fire and ice to microwaves and smart appliances.
Students define technology as any tool created to solve a problem and conduct a home scavenger hunt to identify different categories of tech in their own living spaces.
