A foundational MLL lesson for 1st grade students focused on oral language and visual recognition of animals and their habitats (Forest, Ocean, Desert). The lesson emphasizes Total Physical Response (TPR), visual matching, and basic phonics connections.

A lesson focused on the formation of sedimentary rocks and how their layers serve as a timeline for life on Earth, specifically focusing on the sequence of formation and fossil aging.

A lesson exploring the unique life cycle of periodical cicadas and how their emergence patterns help them survive and reproduce.

Students explore the fascinating life cycle of periodical cicadas, focusing on their unique 13 and 17-year schedules and how this behavior helps them survive against predators.

A hands-on science lab using crackers, water, and plastic bags to simulate the digestive process, with differentiated materials for various learner needs.

A lesson introducing students to various ecosystems through vocabulary and visual identification. Students will learn the key characteristics of different biomes including forests, deserts, and oceans.

An outdoor exploration where students become 'Baby Detectives' to find and observe different types of babies in nature, including human, animal, and plant life. Students will learn that all living things start small and require care and specific environments to grow.

A first-grade lesson focused on identifying attributes and comparing/contrasting everyday objects, weather, and characters to build foundational logic and observation skills.

A lesson that uses a 'mystery drink' metaphor to teach students about computer viruses and the critical importance of asking for permission before downloading files from the internet.

A 5th-grade STEM lesson where students explore the concept of neurodiversity and engineering through the lens of Jack and Jill's creative solution to a water transport problem. Students will design and build their own aqueducts to move water without carrying it, reflecting on how 'thinking outside the box' leads to innovation.

A fun, interactive phonics lesson centered around a 'Battleship' style game where Grade 3 students identify and read multisyllabic words containing the schwa sound. Students practice decoding and identifying the unstressed vowel sound in a nautical-themed setting.

Students explore the relationship between gene versions, proteins, and physical traits, focusing on heterozygous and homozygous genotypes using the context of muscle proteins in runners.

A lesson where students learn how gene versions provide instructions for proteins that determine traits, specifically exploring spider silk flexibility and human running ability. Adjusted for a 3rd-grade reading level while maintaining 6th-grade vocabulary.

Students investigate why different spiders produce different types of silk by looking at traits, proteins, and genes. This lesson adapts complex genetic concepts for a 3rd-grade reading level.

A 6th-grade science lesson adjusted for a SpEd classroom with a 3rd-grade reading level, focusing on how genes and proteins determine traits like spider silk flexibility and human running ability.

Students will identify the five sense organs and explain how they help humans perceive and interact with the world around them through reading and assessment.

An introductory lesson for K-2 students focusing on the major bones of the human body and their primary functions through movement and visual labeling.

A comprehensive lesson exploring how the five sense organs collect data and send signals to the brain for processing. Students will learn the pathway from stimulus to perception through reading, mapping, and assessment.

A 10-session unit covering Virginia Standards 6.6 and 6.8, beginning with a water filter engineering challenge and progressing through water chemistry and watershed systems.

Synthèse de la notion de cellule et évaluation des acquis.

Observation d'organismes composés d'une seule cellule comme les levures ou les paramécies.

Observation des cellules animales à travers l'épithélium buccal humain.

Découverte du microscope et observation des cellules végétales d'oignon.

A comprehensive lesson exploring how the five senses collect data and how the brain processes that information to create our perception of the world. Students will map the neural pathways from organ to brain and identify specific brain regions responsible for each sense.

A comprehensive lesson exploring the five human sense organs, their functions, and essential care practices to maintain sensory health.

A 10-session unit covering Virginia Standards 6.6 and 6.8, beginning with a water filter engineering challenge and progressing through water chemistry and watershed systems.
