A.MAIN INFORMATION: 1. Why should teachers use educational materials in the classroom? I suggest teachers use this resource because, as is known, the materials greatly facilitate the children's learning process. As is known, children, when they are in the learning stage, require the use of the most varied possible amount of educational materials that are attractive to them. Especially those that are manipulable and concrete, as the great Jean Piaget once expressed, given that children learn through manipulation and thus learning is more lasting than that which is verbal. 2. What is the name of this document? "The flashcards of the letters of the alphabet in lowercase version" 3. What topic will you address in this resource? The lowercase letters of the alphabet 4. For what ages is it recommended? This document is recommended for ages 3,4,5,6,7, because these are the ages where children are in the stage of acquiring their first knowledge of the alphabet and beginning to read and write. 5. Who is the author of this document? The author of this document is the publishing house "ARENAS EDUCATIVAS". 6. In what area of knowledge can it be applied? This document can be applied in teaching children's reading and writing. 7. Should I apply it individually or in groups in my class? I suggest making the effort to have each child have their own set of flashcards . That is, I suggest that you work on this activity with the children individually. B. SECONDARY INFORMATION: 8. What size and format is this resource in? This document is available in A4 size, and in PDF format. 9. Do I need some extra elements to apply it? Yes, if you want these primers to be durable, I suggest laminating or laminating them using a laminating machine or adhesive tape. 10. Is it in color or black and white? This document is available in black and white version. 11. Is this resource free or do I have to pay to use it? This resource is free so that it helps many of the people who really need it. 12.

Find the Match – Chemistry Elements Matching Game A fast-paced visual review of atomic numbers and chemical symbols – inspired by the Spot It!™ game concept 🧪🧠 This printable chemistry card game offers a playful and challenging way for students to review the chemical elements. Designed to support symbol recognition, visual attention, and focus, it’s ideal for middle and high school science classes. Inspired by the Spot It!™ game concept (matching symbols) , the game is based on a simple idea: any two cards share exactly one matching chemical symbol – and players race to find it. Each card shows six element symbols (without names), so the game is especially suitable for students who already know the basics and want to strengthen their fluency. What’s included: 93 total cards (3 versions with 31 cards each) Card shapes: round, square (cut-friendly), and hexagonal Elements included: main group elements up to Period 5 + Cs Symbols and atomic numbers only – no element names Hand-drawn visuals created specifically for this resource Instructions included (PDF for print and laminate) How to use in class: This game works well as a review activity, brain break, or warm-up. I’ve used it at the end of a unit on the periodic table or to reinforce visual recall before a quiz. It can be played in pairs, small groups, or even as a whole-class team competition. To support deeper learning, you can also add color-coding tasks – for example, have students group elements by family or period after each round. The game naturally encourages cooperation, observation, and concentration. Because it’s printable and easy to prep, it’s also well-suited for substitute lessons or station work. Students enjoy the fast pace and competition – and they often don’t realize how much they’re reviewing in the process. A simple and flexible way to bring variety and engagement into chemistry class. 🐰 Print it, play it, and bring science to life! 📍 Best, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

Ideas for use: I’ve used these blobs to decorate task cards, brighten up classroom rules, create printable posters, or make front and back covers for student folders. They also work really well for memory games or station cards. Because they’re not too detailed, they’re ideal as visual anchors without drawing attention away from your content. Usage: ✔ Personal use ✔ Commercial use allowed within the educational space – for example, in your own worksheets or printables ✘ No resale or sharing of the raw PNG files These backgrounds are meant to give your materials a light, creative touch – whether you teach young learners or older students.

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?

Take your students on a mouthwatering journey around the globe with this resource - Cooking Around The World: A Culinary Exploration . I created this resource because I believe food isn't just about eating—it's about stories, heritage, and the beautiful ways people connect across cultures. Your students/homeschoolers will dive into rich descriptions of cooking traditions from Peru to Japan, discovering how each recipe tells a story of human creativity and adaptation. Through an engaging reading passage, thoughtful questions, and hands-on activities, they'll explore how something as everyday as cooking reveals our shared humanity. These materials do double duty: building essential reading skills while opening students'/homeschoolers' eyes to the diverse and delicious ways people around the world express their cultural identity through food. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: ✓High-quality reading passage about global cooking traditions and cultural significance ✓20 in-depth comprehension questions with complete answer key ✓Engaging crossword puzzle with solution key ✓10 versatile note-taking sheets for structured learning ✓Professionally formatted materials ready for immediate classroom use ✓Complete references list in MLA format for academic integrity TOPICS COVERED: ✓Cultural significance of food beyond basic nutrition ✓Unique cooking techniques from around the world ✓Historical food migrations and culinary exchanges ✓Indigenous food preparation methods ✓Mediterranean, Japanese, Indian, Chinese, and Peruvian culinary traditions ✓Relationship between geography and food development ✓Evolution of fusion cuisine in modern cooking ✓Cross-cultural food preservation techniques ✓Connection between cooking and human creativity What I love most about this Cooking Around The World: A Culinary Exploration resource is how it helps students/homeschoolers see beyond the classroom/homeschool walls. When kids discover why tandoor ovens create those distinctive smoky flavors in Indian breads or how Chinese wok cooking developed to conserve precious fuel, they're gaining insights that stick with them for life. The way food connects to geography, history, and cultural values becomes wonderfully clear. I have included a full set of academic references because I have found students/homeschoolers often want to dive deeper into specific cuisines that capture their imagination. fAt its heart, this resource turns something as familiar as food into a window through which students can better understand themselves and their place in our beautifully diverse world. If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom

U.S. Presidents and Voting Activities
Social Studies, Government, History, History: USA, Grade 7, 8, 9, Activities
If your curriculum includes teaching about the U.S. Presidents and/or voting, then this is the product for you. If you are teaching about one, but not the other, then you get a bonus set of worksheets and activities. Either way, it’s a big win, especially for your 8th graders, 8th graders, and 9th graders. Learners in those grades will be fully engaged in several U.S. History, Civics, ELA, and research assignments. Concepts presented meet the requirements of current state standards. But the best part is that learners will not simply memorize facts for a test and quickly forget them. Instead, they will research, create, and use reasoning skills while learning about topics which they can use throughout their lives.

Miss Marple – A Classic Movie Detective A reading-based worksheet set with optional film tasks (grades 7–10) 🎥🕵️♀️ A printable and digital resource This material introduces students to the character of Miss Marple as portrayed by Margaret Rutherford in the classic black-and-white crime comedies based on Agatha Christie’s novels. Whether your students are already familiar with detective fiction or encountering it for the first time, this resource offers a simple and accessible way to combine reading skills, character study, and media analysis. The core of the material is a short informational text that provides background on the character and the actress who portrayed her. Students work with a structured profile sheet and a short quiz to reinforce their understanding. If you choose to watch a Miss Marple film with your class, there are two additional worksheets: one for summarizing the movie plot and one for writing a short review. What’s included: Informational text about Miss Marple and Margaret Rutherford Worksheet to create a character profile Quiz questions with solution key Film content worksheet (optional use) Film review worksheet (optional use) Solutions for all main tasks Format: PDF (print-friendly and digital) How it works in class: This is the kind of resource I like to keep on hand for flexible lessons. It works well as a quiet reading and writing task on its own, or as part of a small media project. Watching one of the Miss Marple films adds variety to the lesson and gives students a chance to apply what they’ve learned in a fun and creative way. The film-related worksheets are structured, so even students with less writing experience can follow along easily. Great for regular lessons, substitute plans, or simply when you want to bring a bit of classic British mystery into your classroom. Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we focus on creating a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Shell Model – Chemistry Flashcards Without Element Names 118 cards for learning the periodic table Visual practice with atomic structure and electron configurations 🧪🔬 This printable flashcard set gives students a hands-on way to practice atomic structure and the shell model – without revealing the element names. Each of the 118 cards shows the atomic number, the chemical symbol, and a diagram of the electron distribution across shells. This encourages students to actively recall element names and deepen their understanding of how atomic structure relates to the periodic table. I’ve used these cards mainly for review and partner quizzes. Students really have to think: “What element has 11 electrons and that shell pattern?” or “Which group might this symbol belong to?” It shifts the focus from just memorizing the periodic table to actually understanding the structure behind it. What’s included: 118 printable flashcards (PDF) Each card includes: atomic number, symbol, and shell model (no element names) High-resolution layout, easy to print and cut Suggestions for classroom use included Classroom ideas: Use the cards as a “Find the Pairs” game: Print two sets and let students match identical cards or group elements by patterns. Use them for sorting tasks: metals vs. non-metals, main groups vs. transition metals, increasing number of shells, etc. Create mini-quiz stations: One student shows a card, the other has to guess the element name or describe properties based on the shell model. Let students use the cards to quiz themselves or work in pairs for peer learning. The fact that the element name is missing makes the activity more cognitively demanding – great for more advanced learners or as a follow-up to a unit on atomic structure. Students are more engaged when they can “figure things out” rather than just read off answers. The resource is ready to print. For repeated use, laminating is recommended. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially (+ PDF Version) Bring lab safety to life with this interactive quiz on the GHS (Globally Harmonized System) hazard symbols – perfect for middle and high school chemistry lessons. Whether you're starting the unit or wrapping up a safety review, this quiz adds variety, visual appeal, and a bit of fun to your lesson plan. You’ll get two versions of the quiz: – A PDF version that can be used digitally or printed (but it works not well) – A Genially link that leads to an animated, interactive version (includes sound – which can be muted) Both versions test students on the meanings of the various GHS symbols – from corrosive substances to environmental hazards. The quiz includes original clipart and my own glitter-animated GHS symbols to make the content more visually appealing without distracting from the important safety message. I usually use the Genially quiz for individual work in the computer lab or on tablets, so each student can go at their own pace. But it also works well as a station activity , a class-wide quiz , or even as homework , depending on your classroom setup. At the end of the PDF, you’ll find: A QR code to scan directly to the Genially A clickable link for browser access An iframe embed code , if you want to use it on your (non-commercial) learning platform Attention: The interactive PDF does not contain the full scope of the material. The quiz works. Unfortunately, the additional tasks do not. Using Genially is therefore recommended and much more motivating for the pupils. For the interactive quiz you need an internet connection and a terminal device. The quiz can be carried out with the whole class or as partner or individual work. I prefer individual work at each student's own pace. To get to the Genially link, either scan the QR code at the end of the document or click on the link button available there. You can also copy the iframe code and embed the Genially on a learning platform or other... The Genially can be used either at the beginning of the topic or as a backup. It is also worth using as a station in station work. The interactive version includes motivating sound effects , a self-paced structure , and a clear, age-appropriate design for grades 7–10. 📌 Important note : The Genially quiz is protected by copyright. It’s for your own classroom use only . Please don’t share the link or embed it outside a private, secure learning environment. Sharing with colleagues, online platforms, or social media is not permitted. I hope your students enjoy reviewing GHS symbols as much as mine do! – Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?

Who Has It? – Main Group Elements Game (6 Levels of Differentiation) A chemistry card game to review the main group elements in a structured and playful way (Grades 7–10) 🧪🎯 This classroom game is based on the “I have… who has?” format and helps students review the main group elements of the periodic table. It focuses on atomic numbers, element symbols, and – depending on the level – the correct element names. The game format encourages full-class participation, supports recall through repetition, and helps even quieter students get involved in a low-pressure way. The special feature: six levels of differentiation , so you can tailor the material to your students’ abilities. Whether you teach a mixed-level group or want to build in progression over time, these sets offer plenty of flexibility. What’s included: 3 card sets × 2 difficulty paths = 6 levels total Each set contains 52 cards (156 cards total) Elements included: all main group elements up to element 118 Levels range from fully labeled to no element names at all Clear instructions for printing, cutting, and gameplay Differentiation overview: Levels 1 & 2: All names included Levels 3 & 4: Only “I have” part includes names Levels 5 & 6: No names – only symbols and atomic numbers How to use in class: In my own lessons, I’ve used this as a review after teaching atomic structure or periodic trends. It works well as a class opener, during stations, or even in a substitute lesson. The A/B sets are helpful when students sit close together – it prevents copying but keeps everyone working on the same task. Students enjoy the rhythm of the game, and because every card depends on the one before, they naturally stay attentive. It’s a great way to combine repetition with interaction. Low-prep, flexible, and genuinely useful for learning chemical elements in a collaborative setting. Best, Heike from Lernfitness Did You Know?

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?

Therapy Dog Rules Poster Helping Students & Dogs Feel Safe and Happy! 🐶✨ Having a therapy dog in school is a wonderful experience. There’s something truly special about how dogs help students feel calmer, more focused, and even more motivated to learn. But to make sure that both students and the dog feel safe and comfortable, we need clear and easy-to-understand rules. That’s why I created this Therapy Dog Rules Poster—so that everyone knows how to interact respectfully and kindly with the school dog. 🐾 Why This Poster is a Must-Have for Your Classroom or School ✔ Gives students clear expectations – Kids need to know how to behave around a therapy dog, and this poster makes it easy to remember! ✔ Reduces stress for the dog – When students understand the rules, therapy dogs feel more relaxed and happy in their school environment. ✔ Supports social-emotional learning – Encourages empathy, patience, and responsibility—great lessons that go beyond just interacting with a dog. ✔ Works in any classroom setting – Whether you’re welcoming a therapy dog regularly or just preparing for a visit, these guidelines help create a smooth and positive experience for everyone. 📌 What’s Inside? 📜 A Printable Therapy Dog Rules Poster ✔ Simple, easy-to-follow rules that students can understand at a glance ✔ Friendly, inviting design to make the message clear and approachable ✔ Available in multiple formats for flexible printing and display 💡 How to Use This Poster in Your Classroom or School 📍 Introduce the rules before the first therapy dog visit. Go over the rules together and talk about why they’re important. Encourage students to share how they think dogs might feel in different situations. 📍 Keep it in a visible spot. Hang it up in the classroom, hallway, or near the therapy dog’s resting area. The more students see it, the easier it will be for them to remember! 📍 Use it as a discussion starter. Talk about respect, kindness, and responsibility—not just toward therapy dogs, but in everyday interactions with people too. 📍 Encourage positive behavior. When students follow the rules, acknowledge their effort! You can even let them read a story to the therapy dog as a reward.
