Health & Applied Bioscience: Reading Comprehension Passages and Questions (FILLABLE PDF) This very engaging and fillable collection of science reading passages about The Truth about Drinks, Green Tea, and Plastic in Medicine is designed to bridge the gap between science and literacy through strengthening reading comprehension and sparking scientific curiosity in middle school students.

Suitable for Grade 9 review, too! These worksheets are designed as fillable PDFs , which means students can type their answers directly into the document on any computer or tablet . Each page includes highlighted text fields that show them exactly where to type! What Is Included? There are (3) informational passages: The Truth About Drinks: Many popular drinks add a lot of sugar, caffeine, or artificial sweeteners without people noticing. Knowing what is in sports drinks, sodas, and energy drinks helps you choose water or low-sugar options more often. Green Tea: Ancient Drink, Modern Science: Green tea comes from an old tradition, but today it is studied for its helpful plant chemicals. It can support alertness and health, but it works best as part of overall good habits, not as a magic drink. Plastic in Medicine: From Everyday Uses to Life-Saving Care: Plastics made it easier to keep hospitals clean, since items like gloves, syringes, and IV tubes can be used once and thrown away. They also make medical tools lighter and safer, though all that single-use plastic has to be handled carefully. Student Tasks for Each Passage: 5 multiple-choice questions targeting main idea, key details, inference, vocabulary in context, and use of evidence 5 vocabulary matching items with clear, student-friendly definitions 5 text-based questions that require citing specific lines or facts 1 summary prompt that asks students to condense central ideas accurately Full answer key for every section Available Formats for this Resource Word Docs Google Docs FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOADING LINKS HERE Other Science Reading Collections and Topics You May Find in the Store: 1.

Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008) – Movie Guide
ELA, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, Activities

The movie is set in Nazi Germany during World War II and follows the story of an 8-year-old German boy named Bruno. Bruno's father is a high-ranking Nazi officer, and the family moves to a new home in the countryside when his father is assigned to oversee a concentration camp. From his bedroom window, Bruno sees the camp in the distance but doesn't understand what it is. One day, Bruno decides to explore the woods near his home and stumbles upon the camp. He meets a Jewish boy named Shmuel who is wearing the striped uniform of a prisoner. Despite the barbed wire fence separating them, Bruno and Shmuel form a friendship, and Bruno begins to visit him regularly, bringing him food and playing games with him. As the movie progresses, Bruno starts to become aware of the true nature of the camp and the treatment of the prisoners. He decides to help Shmuel find his missing father and sneaks into the camp, wearing a striped uniform like Shmuel's. The two boys are led into a gas chamber, and the movie ends with a shot of the empty chamber and Bruno's parents realizing their son is missing. "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" explores the themes of innocence, friendship, and the atrocities of the Holocaust. It stars Asa Butterfield as Bruno, Jack Scanlon as Shmuel, and David Thewlis and Vera Farmiga as Bruno's parents. This 18-question movie guide will help your students stay focused during this powerful movie. This product will hold your students accountable without disrupting the flow of the movie.

Health & Applied Bioscience: Reading Comprehension Passages and Questions (Word) This very engaging collection of science reading passages about The Truth about Drinks, Green Tea, and Plastic in Medicine is designed to bridge the gap between science and literacy through strengthening reading comprehension and sparking scientific curiosity in middle school students. Each passage blends English Language Arts skills with accurate science content that supports NGSS classroom practice. Ideal for interdisciplinary learning in ELA and Science. Suitable for Grade 9 review, too! What Is Included? There are (3) informational passages: The Truth About Drinks: Many popular drinks add a lot of sugar, caffeine, or artificial sweeteners without people noticing. Knowing what is in sports drinks, sodas, and energy drinks helps you choose water or low-sugar options more often. Green Tea: Ancient Drink, Modern Science: Green tea comes from an old tradition, but today it is studied for its helpful plant chemicals. It can support alertness and health, but it works best as part of overall good habits, not as a magic drink. Plastic in Medicine: From Everyday Uses to Life-Saving Care: Plastics made it easier to keep hospitals clean, since items like gloves, syringes, and IV tubes can be used once and thrown away. They also make medical tools lighter and safer, though all that single-use plastic has to be handled carefully. Student Tasks for Each Passage: 5 multiple-choice questions targeting main idea, key details, inference, vocabulary in context, and use of evidence 5 vocabulary matching items with clear, student-friendly definitions 5 text-based questions that require citing specific lines or facts 1 summary prompt that asks students to condense central ideas accurately Full answer key for every section Available Formats for this Resource PDF Google Docs FULL CATALOG OF DOWNLOADING LINKS HERE Other Science Reading Collections you May find in the store: 1.

Middle School Math Stations: or Centers: Percent, Decimals, Fractions
Math, Percentages, Decimals, Fractions, Grade 5, 6, 7, Centers, Activities

Even when students are in middle school or the intermediate grades, they benefit from a variety of teaching strategies including the use of stations or centres! But they are a lot of work to prepare! This ready-to-go set of 5 stations will supplement a unit about fractions, decimals, and percent. Ways to Use: You can break your class into 5 groups and have them rotate one at a time through the centres, giving them 10-20 minutes at each one. Or, start students at certain centres and then allow them to move around at their own pace as long as no one centre gets too full. I find these are a great resource as you are finishing your unit and preparing for the unit test. Station 1: Students solve four word problems using percentages. (optional: set out white boards for students to use) Station 2: Students play a game to practice calculating sales & tax. (supplies needed: 6-sided dice) Station 3: Students design a floor plan and calculate what percent of the space each room occupies. Station 4: Students practice converting between percent, decimals, and fractions and play an online game . (optional: set out laptops or tablets for the online game extension) Station 5: Students apply what they have learned to a real-life problem, and practice writing and drawing about their mathematical thinking. Grades to Use With: These stations work well for grades 5-7 or high school special education classes. Standards: CCSS6.RP.A.3c Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent. CCSS7.RP.A.2a Decide whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin. If you like these stations, check out other ones in my store: 5 Stations for Adding/Subtracting Integers 5 Stations for Early Algebra Concepts 5 Stations for Area, Perimeter, and Volume
