A comprehensive lesson sequence on atomic decay, focusing on hands-on simulation of half-life using common objects and practicing the prediction of decay products through nuclear equations.
Exploring the internal heat and dynamic processes that shape our planet's surface and interior.
A comprehensive review sequence for Grade 6 Science covering genetics, heredity, thermal energy, and climate patterns. Each mission focuses on a mix of all key standards to prepare students for their upcoming assessment.
A 3-day exploration of thermal energy, particle motion, and phase changes. Students use models to understand how adding or removing energy transforms substances from solids to liquids to gases.
A unit focused on the quantitative relationships in chemical reactions, covering everything from basic molar mass to complex limiting reactant and percent yield calculations.
A comprehensive 9-week book study of Temple Grandin's 'Animals in Translation' for high school students, focusing on sensory perception, animal behavior, and inclusive design through jigsaw discussions and creative projects.
A three-lesson unit for 6th-grade students exploring the structure of atoms, the nature of elements, and how to use models to distinguish between different types of matter. Students will journey from the subatomic level to the organization of the periodic table.
A comprehensive exploration of viral structure, pathogenesis, and the human immune response, covering TEKS 5D and 12A. This sequence bridges the gap between microscopic invaders and our biological defenses.
A comprehensive unit exploring the biochemical processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, highlighting their interdependence in the flow of energy through ecosystems.
A comprehensive biology unit covering the complex interactions of animal and plant systems, the structural nature of viruses, and the application of these concepts to real-world disease outbreaks.
A collection of unit review materials for middle school science, specifically targeting 6th grade living things and 7th grade body systems. These resources mirror local assessments to ensure student readiness.
A series of four 10-15 minute logic lessons for middle school students, focusing on Zeno's paradoxes and the 'Paradox Player' thinking style. Students will learn to break ideas into tiny steps, push logic to extremes, and identify contradictions through 'Paradox Breaker' activities.
A comprehensive 3-week unit exploring the unique physical properties of water, its role in life and geological processes, and the dynamics of watershed systems. Students investigate polarity, cohesion, and universal solubility through hands-on labs while connecting these traits to climate moderation and the health of the Chesapeake Bay.
A review sequence for Unit 3 data analysis standards, focusing on collection, manipulation, visualization, and ethics through a hands-on mini-project.
An introductory sequence on electromagnetic radiation, focusing specifically on ultraviolet light, its effects on matter, and methods of protection.
