A concise, 5-day science unit covering plant structures, life cycles, environmental needs, and soil types designed for 20-minute instructional blocks.
A collection of supplemental activities to reinforce foundational concepts of DNA, inheritance, and genetics. Students will practice vocabulary, sequencing biological structures, and verifying facts through interactive worksheets.
Students act as 'Marine Bio-Engineers' to design and build artificial reef structures that support a healthy ecosystem on Mystery Island's coast, focusing on biotic and abiotic interactions.
Students design and build 'Food Web Restoration' models to visualize and explain the flow of energy from producers to multiple consumers on Mystery Island.
Students design and build 'Weather Shields' to protect a model plant from extreme temperature and precipitation changes on Mystery Island, exploring how environmental factors affect organisms.
Students act as 'Botanical Engineers' to design and build seed models that can travel through the air to reach new parts of Mystery Island, focusing on seed dispersal methods.
Students design external structures for a 'Mystery Organism' to help it meet its basic needs (food, water, shelter) on Mystery Island, focusing on the link between structure and function.
A deep dive into the subatomic origins of plate tectonics, tracing the journey from unstable nuclei to the massive convection currents that move continents.
A comprehensive assessment lesson focusing on the specific events of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis through detailed matching exercises.
This lesson explores advanced rotational dynamics, focusing on the application of Newton's Second Law for rotation to massive pulleys and rolling objects where static friction provides the necessary torque for rolling without slipping.
An introductory lesson on tiger-related vocabulary, focusing on conservation, biology, and habitat through kid-friendly definitions and syllable practice.
