Dmitri Mendeleev – The Man Behind the Periodic Table Comprehension Activities A short reading and comprehension activity for science classes (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📘 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This resource introduces students to Dmitri Mendeleev, the chemist who first organized the periodic table in a way that allowed scientists to predict the discovery of new elements. His approach wasn’t just about sorting known facts – it was about seeing patterns and thinking ahead. That story can really bring chemistry to life for students. The material includes a short, student-friendly informational text along with structured follow-up tasks. It works well in a chemistry unit focusing on the periodic table or chemical elements, but it can also be used in interdisciplinary contexts or as part of a history-of-science project. Included in this resource: A brief reading text about Mendeleev and his scientific achievements A worksheet to help students summarize key information in a profile format Quiz questions with an answer key Two optional extensions: – Students write their own questions about the text – Exchange questions with a partner and respond Formats: – PDF (print and digital use) – DOCX (editable, without images) – H5P (for digital platforms, text-only) How to use it in class: I’ve used this type of material both as an introduction to the periodic table and as a filler activity when students need something structured but manageable. The quiz can be done individually or discussed as a group, and the partner tasks work well for early finishers. The H5P version is especially helpful in digital classrooms or for homework: students can check their answers independently and work at their own pace. You don’t need much prep. Just print or upload the files and you’re ready to go. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Scientist Richard Dawkins - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Richard Dawkins – Genes, Evolution, and the “Selfish Gene” Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🧬🐒 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 9–12 to Richard Dawkins – an evolutionary biologist best known for popularizing the idea of the “selfish gene.” By the time students reach upper secondary levels, they usually have a solid understanding of natural selection. Dawkins' perspective invites them to look one level deeper: not just at organisms competing for survival, but at genes as the driving force behind evolution . His work sparked a lot of discussion – not only in science, but also in philosophy and ethics. To help students engage with these more abstract ideas, I’ve put together a structured and accessible lesson. It includes a short informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. The materials are available in color and black-and-white versions, plus there’s a digital H5P version for interactive use. What’s included: A student-friendly overview of Richard Dawkins and the core ideas of The Selfish Gene A fact sheet to help students organize key concepts Quiz questions with solutions for quick comprehension checks A partner task where students create and exchange questions Available as printable PDF and interactive H5P version 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this resource in upper-level biology and ethics courses – especially when discussing how scientific ideas evolve and how they influence thinking beyond the lab. The material also opens up interesting conversations about the role of science communication. Works well for individual tasks, pair work, or short discussion-based projects. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Richard Dawkins into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Mathematics Binder Covers – Templates for Classroom Use Organize your Math handouts, notes, and units with visual clarity Simple and flexible templates to help organize your Mathematics materials In my math classes, it can be a challenge to keep things organized - especially when it comes to multiple units, lab notes, worksheets and review materials. To make it easier for my students and myself, I designed these simple binder sleeves. There are 12 different pages. The covers have a clean, colorful blob layout that is friendly but not distracting. I usually print them out and use them as cover sheets or as dividers in folders for students or teachers. They also work well for digital learning environments, e.g. as section covers in PDF files or on classroom platforms. I like that the color scheme allows students to quickly find what they are looking for, and it brings a little more structure to a subject that is often riddled with formulas and technical terms. When used as cover sheets, students can choose their favorite color for their cover sheet. This resource is handy - and has saved me a lot of time in lesson preparation and follow-up. What’s included: 12 math-themed cover pages different colors zu choose as a cover sheet as a divider between the individual Mathematics topics I've printed these on colored paper for my own binder and also used them digitally in student notebooks. Works well for both teacher organization and student-facing materials. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Math teacher (Chemistry teacher, Biology teacher) in Germany Did You Know?

Julius Lothar Meyer – A Lesser-Known Pioneer of the Periodic Table Comprehension Activities A flexible science resource for grades 7–10 (PDF + H5P) 🧪📖 A printable and digital resource science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This resource introduces students to Julius Lothar Meyer, a chemist who developed one of the earliest versions of the periodic table—independently of Mendeleev. While Mendeleev is often more widely recognized, Meyer’s work also played a crucial role in organizing chemical elements and identifying patterns that shaped how we understand atomic structure today. The material offers a short, readable text that gives students an overview of Meyer’s scientific contributions. It’s supported by a set of structured activities that encourage reflection and comprehension. The format is ideal for both subject-specific lessons and non-specialist substitute teaching. What’s included: Informational text about Julius Lothar Meyer Profile worksheet for summarizing key facts Quiz questions with a complete solution key Two optional follow-up tasks: – Students create their own questions – Peer exchange and answer activity File formats: – PDF (for print or digital use) – Editable DOCX (text only) – H5P version (interactive and text-based, no images) How it’s used in the classroom: This resource fits well into a chemistry unit on the history of the periodic table, scientific discovery, or atomic theory. I’ve also used it as an extra reading task for early finishers or as a way to bring biographical context into more abstract content. The H5P version is a helpful option for students working online or independently. It supports self-checking and can be easily uploaded to learning platforms. With no extra prep required, the lesson can be used right away—whether printed, projected, or assigned digitally. A thoughtful way to highlight a scientist whose name isn’t always in the spotlight—but whose impact on chemistry is worth exploring. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students!

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. In this lesson, students explore the work of Theodor Schwann, who, together with Matthias Schleiden, laid the foundation for modern cell biology. The materials are designed to fit into a 45-minute session ⏱️ and work well in both print and digital formats. I’ve used them in regular biology lessons as well as for independent learning phases or when a quick but meaningful sub plan was needed. The resource includes a short, accessible reading passage about Schwann’s scientific discoveries. After reading, students fill in a fact sheet 📝 to summarize key information, and then answer quiz questions to check their understanding. 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). Included: Informational text about Theodor Schwann Fact sheet task Quiz questions with answer key Creative student task (write your own questions) Printable PDFs (color & B/W) H5P interactive version The materials are self-explanatory and suitable for classroom use, homework, or digital learning 💻. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Theodor Schwann into your biology lessons today! 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?
