Scientist Barbara McClintock - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Barbara McClintock – Genetics and the Discovery of Jumping Genes Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🌽🧬 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 7–10 to Barbara McClintock – a pioneering geneticist whose research changed the way we understand genes and heredity. Many students know the basics of DNA and inheritance, but fewer have heard of McClintock or her discovery of “jumping genes” (transposons). Working with maize plants 🌽 in the mid-20th century, she found that genes can move within the genome – a finding that was far ahead of its time and only fully recognized years later. To help students access this complex but fascinating topic, I’ve created a compact and ready-to-use lesson. It includes an informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. All materials come in both color and black-and-white versions, plus there’s an H5P version for digital use. What’s included: A short, student-friendly text about Barbara McClintock and her scientific contributions A fact sheet to help students organize key information Quiz questions (with answer key) for self-checking or review A creative task where students come up with their own questions and exchange them in pairs Formats: Printable/digital PDF and interactive H5P version 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this material as part of our genetics unit, especially when discussing how scientific ideas are received and validated over time. It also works well in lessons on women in science or the history of biology. Easy to implement and suitable for partner work, independent study, or short projects. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Barbara McClintock into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Scientist Hans Krebs - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Hans Krebs – Cellular Respiration and the Discovery of the Krebs Cycle Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🔁🧬 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 10–12 to Hans Krebs – the scientist who uncovered one of the most important metabolic pathways in our cells: the citric acid cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle. When teaching cellular respiration, many students can follow the basics of glucose breakdown and ATP production – but the details of what happens in the mitochondria often feel abstract. Krebs' discovery in the 1930s helped explain how cells extract energy efficiently from food molecules through a cycle of chemical reactions. It’s a key part of understanding aerobic respiration and metabolism. To make this complex process more accessible, I’ve created a structured lesson that includes a short informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. All materials are available in color and black-and-white, plus there’s a digital H5P version for interactive learning. What’s included: A student-friendly text about Hans Krebs and the citric acid cycle A fact sheet to help visualize and summarize the steps of the cycle Quiz questions (with answer key) for quick review or comprehension checks A creative task where students develop and exchange their own questions in pairs Formats: Printable PDF and interactive H5P 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this resource during our unit on cellular respiration, often right after glycolysis and before moving on to the electron transport chain. It’s especially helpful for students who benefit from breaking down complex processes into steps. The partner activity works well for revision or as preparation for assessments. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Hans Krebs into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Learning Numbers with Vikings – Creative Pennant Banner - Bunting
Holiday & Seasonal, Math, Early Math, Counting, Numbers, Montessori, Special Education Needs (SEN), Special Resources, History, Social Studies, Preschool, Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, 3, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Teacher Tools, Projects, Templates, Classroom Decor, Door Decor, Posters, Bulletin Boards, Banners
Learning Numbers with Vikings – Creative Pennant Chain Creative Pennant Banner - Bunting A playful number line for early math skills with a Viking theme ⚔️🔢 This printable number pennant chain helps students in early grades (K–2 or 1–3) practice counting from 0 to 20 – all within a fun and imaginative Viking setting. Each pennant features a number, a matching number of Viking-themed illustrations, and a rustic wood-frame design that gives the entire chain a cohesive and storybook-like look. What makes this material stand out is the thoughtful visual support: for every number, students see a set of hand-drawn Viking clipart items (e.g., shields, helmets, swords), clearly corresponding to the number shown. This helps learners make the connection between numerals and quantity – an essential early math skill. What’s included: Numbers 0–20 as printable pennants (PDF) Each number illustrated with a matching number of Viking-themed images Two versions: full-color and black-and-white for coloring activities Wooden-look frames and connectors to complete the Viking design Tips for classroom use included Ideas for classroom use: You can hang the pennant chain across the classroom as a number line or let students help assemble it during a math lesson. The black-and-white version works well for individual coloring tasks, giving students ownership over their learning space. Some teachers use it in math centers, others during Viking-themed project weeks. The visual repetition supports number sense and makes abstract numbers feel more concrete. I’ve found that students who usually struggle with counting feel more confident when they can match numbers to something they can see and count. The resource is easy to print and use, and no extra materials are needed beyond scissors and string. Laminating the pennants will help them last across multiple school years. This is more than just a decoration – it’s a tool for early math learning wrapped in a bit of adventure. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶

Scientist Craig Venter - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Craig Venter – Sequencing the Human Genome and the Future of Synthetic Biology Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🧬🧪 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 9–12 to Craig Venter – a biologist and geneticist who played a major role in decoding the human genome and pushing the boundaries of synthetic biology. Most students know that DNA holds our genetic information, but they’re often surprised to learn how recently the full human genome was sequenced – and how intense the race to do so actually was. Venter took a different approach from public research teams and became one of the first to publish a full genome sequence. Later, he even worked on building synthetic cells – raising big questions about what defines life. To explore this complex but highly relevant topic, I’ve put together a compact and structured lesson. It includes an informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative task for pairs. All materials are available in color and black-and-white, plus there’s an H5P version for digital classrooms.

Theodor Schwann – Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) This lesson-ready material introduces students to Theodor Schwann 🧪 and his contribution to one of the most important concepts in biology: the cell theory 🔬. While many students in grades 7 to 10 already know that all living things are made of cells, they often don’t know where this insight comes from – or who helped uncover it.

What worked really well in my class was the final task: students created their own questions based on the material and exchanged them with a partner. It led to some thoughtful discussions and helped them reflect on what they had actually learned 💬. You’ll find two versions of the printable PDFs – one in color 🎨 and one in black and white. The included H5P version offers a digital alternative for interactive use, especially useful on learning platforms or digital boards (note: the H5P version contains no design elements, just the interactive tasks).

Scientist Jacques Monod - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Jacques Monod – Gene Regulation and the Logic of Life Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🧬⚙️ This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 9–11 to Jacques Monod – a French molecular biologist whose work helped uncover how genes are turned on and off. In many biology classes, students learn what DNA is and how proteins are made. But the question of how cells know which genes to activate – and when – often stays abstract. Monod, together with François Jacob, studied this in bacteria and developed the model of the lac operon. It’s a great example of how cells respond to their environment, and it laid the groundwork for much of what we know about gene regulation today. To make this topic more tangible, I’ve created a compact, ready-to-use lesson that breaks it down into manageable parts. It includes an informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. The material comes in color and black-and-white versions, plus there’s a digital H5P version. What’s included: A clear, student-friendly text about Jacques Monod and the lac operon A fact sheet to help students sort and retain key information Quiz questions with an answer key – good for review or independent work A task where students design and exchange their own questions in pairs Printable PDF and interactive H5P formats for flexible use 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this resource during our genetics unit, especially when moving from DNA basics to regulation and gene expression. It also fits well in discussions about how scientific models are developed and tested. The partner task works well in small groups or for homework – depending on your setup. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Jacques Monod into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?
