Investigate how animals prepare for winter with a migration map poster and a pinecone animal craft.

Learn about pumpkin growth and anatomy by creating a geometric pumpkin poster and a 3D paper pumpkin craft.

Explore the science of changing leaves through a cut-and-paste identification poster and a visual leaf-rubbing craft.

In this lesson, students explore the flow of energy and the cycling of matter within a pond ecosystem, culminating in the development of a model that distinguishes between these two fundamental ecological processes.

A lesson exploring how plants use structural and behavioral adaptations to survive in diverse environments. Students will analyze academic texts and demonstrate understanding through comprehension questions.

A lesson exploring the specialized roles of red and white blood cells, their production in bone marrow, and their vital functions in oxygen transport and immune defense. Includes differentiated reading materials for various reading levels.

A comprehensive introduction to radiometric dating, explaining how scientists use radioactive isotopes to determine the absolute age of rocks and fossils, and comparing it to relative dating methods.

A foundational lesson on photosynthesis for middle schoolers, framing plants as 'Solar Kitchens' that convert light energy into chemical energy. The lesson covers reactants, products, the role of chloroplasts, and the importance of the process for life on Earth.

Weeks 1 focus on the scale of the solar system, the Sun, and the terrestrial planets, emphasizing executive functioning through organizational 'Mission Logs' and perspective-taking via planetary viewpoints.

Explore the fundamentals of atoms, the periodic table, and chemical bonding through the story of Carmela's science class. This lesson covers atomic structure, valence electrons, and types of bonding in a bilingual format.

A comprehensive test preparation lesson for Grade 7 Science, specifically aligned to the Arkansas ATLAS assessment. It covers heredity, ecosystems, forces, and Earth's history through model-based reasoning and lab scenarios.

A comprehensive introduction to the microscopic world of animal and plant cells, exploring key organelles and their functions through visual diagrams and hands-on labeling.

An interdisciplinary lesson exploring ecological footprints through the unique environmental context of the Jemez Valley. Students analyze local resource consumption and research regional conservation to develop a sense of environmental stewardship.

An interactive exploration of Earth's shifting plates, boundary types, and the evidence for continental drift. Students will analyze how the lithosphere moves and the landforms created by these massive geological forces.

A beginner-friendly introduction to Blender 4.0, focusing on navigation, object transformations, and essential edit mode tools for 3D modeling.
