The Pilgrims and the Plymouth Settlement, Readers Theater
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities
Here is a play to help deliver any lesson about the Pilgrims and their settlement in the Plymouth colony. I have enjoyed using this as a resource in my classroom for years.. Here is what is included in the play. It explains why the Pilgrims were in Holland, why they came to North America, events on board ship, and what happened after they arrived. Students like to be active in the classroom. This is an activity to get them up and moving! There are a number of roles for students. The voyage on the Mayflower seems fascinating to us but in reality it had to be very scary and very boring! However, there were some interesting events to take place on the voyage over. The play does identify why the people we call "Pilgrims" today were in Holland and why they felt the need to leave. Most of the major events on the voyage are covered in the play and even some of what the Pilgrims experienced in what we now call the state of Massachusetts. This works well as an engaging acivity for students. Overall, this takes about 15-20 minutes to complete and your students will love it! If you enjoy including activities like this in your lessons, there are more plays and skits I've created that will be on this TeachSimple website. Have fun! :-)

Linus Pauling – Scientist Profile and Reading Tasks
Life Sciences, Science, STEM, Social Studies, Biographies, Inventors, Basic Science, Physics, Chemistry, Technology, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables, Quizzes, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Projects, Activities
Linus Pauling – Scientist Profile and Reading Tasks Comprehension Activities A short reading and activity set (PDF + H5P) ⚗️📘 A printable and digital resource for grades 7–10 science and cross-curricular teaching 🧪🧠 This ready-to-use resource introduces students to Linus Carl Pauling – a groundbreaking chemist and one of only two people to receive two unshared Nobel Prizes. His work on chemical bonding, molecular structures, and vitamin research shaped modern chemistry and continues to influence science education today. He’s also remembered for his outspoken views on peace and social responsibility, which makes him an interesting figure across subject areas. The material is designed to help students understand both the scientific and personal contributions of Pauling. It includes a short reading text, a guided profile worksheet, and a short quiz. Two extension tasks allow students to engage more deeply with the text by creating their own questions and discussing them with a partner. What’s included: Informational text on Linus Pauling (student-friendly language) Printable worksheet for creating a profile Quiz questions with solutions Two optional tasks for independent or pair work Formats: – PDF for print and digital use – Editable DOCX (text only, without images) – Interactive H5P version (suitable for most learning platforms) How it can be used: I’ve used materials like this during units on chemical bonding, scientific biographies, or even in interdisciplinary lessons that connect science with ethics or activism. It’s also worked well for cover lessons, as the structure is simple and students can work independently. The H5P version allows students to complete the quiz digitally and get instant feedback, which is helpful in blended learning environments or for homework. The tasks are flexible: they can be used as a full lesson, a review activity, or a meaningful extension when you want to slow down and connect content to real people. Minimal prep. Easy to adapt. A great way to make science a little more human. 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.
