Spanish Crossword: Animals of North America - Animales de America del Norte
Foreign Languages, Spanish, Not Grade Specific, Crosswords Puzzles, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables
This crossword has animals of North America in Spanish. After filling the crossword , you will find a hidden message from the grey vertical row! This product is a print-and-go and ready-to-use pdf that includes answers. This resource is created for vocabulary building. This resource is suitable for any student learning Spanish, because the hints are given as pictures, you donβt even have to know these words in English! Some of the words are very basic, such as el zorro or el lobo, some of them are a little bit more difficult such as la zarigΓΌeya. The hidden message in this crossword is: fauna silvestre With Spanish vocabulary, you have to consider if the word is feminine or masculine. In this crossword Iβve solved this issue by printing the definite article ready for the crossword . This makes it easier for younger students to understand the crossword (exactly one letter for each square) while still introducing the gender of each word. In this crossword , there is also a notion that often the article depends on the sex of the animal. Filling the crossword : Students look at the pictures below the crossword . Each picture has a number. When they recognize the word in Spanish, they should write the word into the corresponding horizontal row in the crossword one letter at a time. Donβt forget the accents! This resource is suitable for individual work or small groups. This resource is at its best with students Age 9 or older if Spanish is a foreign language. In that case, students can use some dictionary or translator to support their work For younger students if they have a strong background (For example, Spanish spoken at home etc) There are also other Spanish crosswords like this in my Teach Simple page: https://teachsimple.com/contributor/thebrightestkid

Scientist Hans Krebs - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Hans Krebs β Cellular Respiration and the Discovery of the Krebs Cycle Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) π𧬠This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 10β12 to Hans Krebs β 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 β 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. Itβs a key part of understanding aerobic respiration and metabolism. To make this complex process more accessible, Iβve 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 thereβs a digital H5P version for interactive learning. Whatβs 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 π» Answer key included β Iβve used this resource during our unit on cellular respiration, often right after glycolysis and before moving on to the electron transport chain. Itβs especially helpful for students who benefit from breaking down complex processes into steps.

Titanic Social Stratification Simulation
Social Studies, History, Psychology, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Activities, Projects
Abandon Ship! Social Stratification Simulation Teacher Guide Intro: This is a great class period activity to introduce and/or demonstrate the pervasiveness of social stratification. Step by Step Instructions: Sort students into groups of 8. If a group has less than 8 than students may need to assume multiple roles Assign each student a role, and hand them the βhandoutβ for their character. They will assume this role. Their objective is to secure a spot on the lifeboat. Give students a couple of minutes to read their handout and get familiar with their character. Assemble students in groups physically. Inform them they are to create a list of 5 members that will be granted access on the lifeboat. Under no circumstances will more than 5 members be allowed a spot- it would cause the raft to potentially sink. Give students a 15 minute timer to complete their list of 5. Make sure students know that they each need to share out to the group all of the details about their character. It is important that students base their decisions on the facts. After selections are made have students return to typical seats and go through the discussion questions together The slides provide a handful of reflection questions but feel free to use your own. I like to try to investigate what students chose not to share. For example, often the elementary school teacher opts not to share they are $89,000 in debt. This can start a great conversation around how societal standards invoke shame on those in difficult financial standing Notes: I often offer a couple points extra credit, or a piece of candy, or some other kind of incentive to those that gain a spot on the boat. I recommend this to boost engagement and bring more passion to the activity. I try to not let students see the character sheets of other characters, to create a little βgamesmanshipβ Consider adding bullet points to characters to make them more complex before printing the sheets Take A Look At More Of My Best Sellers: Major Supreme Court Cases Slides Crash Course Government Episode 5 Worksheet Constitutional Clauses Slides + Worksheet Arctic Survival Team Building Activity American Election Slides + Guided Notes Crash Course Government Episode 18 Worksheet Enjoy More From My Store Here: Active Social Studies

Most students know that DNA holds our genetic information, but theyβre often surprised to learn how recently the full human genome was sequenced β 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 β raising big questions about what defines life. To explore this complex but highly relevant topic, Iβve 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 thereβs an H5P version for digital classrooms.

28th Amendment Project
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Government, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, Activities, Projects
Without a doubt, history is a topic that can be easily overlooked by our students. Sometimes, it can be difficult for them to make connections with the past in a way that makes sense to them. Being able to provide students with meaningful resources is the best way to get over this learning curve. Whenever you have a social studies topic to introduce or review, you want to find engaging products that you know your students will be able to learn from. Within my store, you will find a plethora of social studies resources to utilize with your students. What You Get: This is a 28th Amendment Project. There are 10 slides in the presentation and 2 pages for the brainstorming chart, which is an editable Word document. This is an inquiry learning project that will challenge students to consider what amendment they would seek to have passed if a 28th amendment could be added. The presentation provides brief explanations and guides students through brainstorming. How To Implement This Resource: You should print off enough copies of the brainstorming chart for each student to have, so they can make notes on it as they follow along with the presentation. Encourage them to make notes on the back of the paper or on separate pieces of paper until they are sure about the amendment they think should be implemented. As you work through the presentation, you will be taking students through a brainstorming process about adding a 28th Amendment. Some things students will consider are: -- Issues that exist with how the Constitution works -- Social issues or financial issues within the country -- Which groups of people might oppose a certain amendment -- Finding reputable sources, without a motive, for their research These slides provide great opportunity for engagement and whole group discussion before students dive into their research. Allow students the opportunity to get creative and continue discussions throughout the research process. I hope you enjoy!
