Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grade
STEM, Science, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Games, Worksheets & Printables, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Tools, Worksheets, Flashcards, Projects, Presentations, Graphic Organizers
Alkali Metals Concept Wheel – Interactive Chemistry Activity for Grades 7–10 Learn Alkali Metals - visual learning 🧪🧠 This concept wheel is a practical way to help students understand the alkali metals in Group 1 of the periodic table. I first made it for a grade 8 class that was struggling with the idea of chemical families. Instead of giving them another chart to copy, I tried this wheel activity, and it worked much better because they could see and handle the information piece by piece. The wheel has eight sections that cover the basics: general properties, reactivity, how these elements appear in nature, and some everyday uses. Students cut out and arrange the pieces to build the full circle. The activity takes a little bit of preparation, but once the pieces are made, you can reuse them. I usually store the sets in small envelopes so they are ready for the next lesson. There are different versions included. Some circles are already filled in, which is helpful when introducing the topic for the first time. Others are blank, so students can write their own notes after a lab or reading assignment. I have used the blank ones during review sessions, and students liked comparing their wheels with a partner’s version. It also gives them a sense of ownership over the material. The wheel can be used in many ways: as a warm-up before a lab, as practice during a unit on the periodic table, or as a review before a quiz. It works for group tasks, but I have also had students complete it on their own. When the wheels are finished, they make a clear visual display for the classroom or for a student’s notebook. This activity is designed for grades 7–10 chemistry or physical science. It supports lessons on periodic trends, classification of elements, and the special role of the alkali metals. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and welcoming learning environment. 🐶

Shakespeare Text Messages: Comprehension and Reflection for ANY Shakespeare Play
ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Literature, Writing, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Projects
Shakespeare Text Messages: Comprehension and Reflection for ANY Shakespeare Play This resource bolsters engagement when reading ANY Shakespearean play by tapping into modern forms of communication: specifically the text message. The tools provided are designed to support reading comprehension for your high school students in grades 9-12. The assignment features an example from the play Twelfth Night, translated into modern English text messages. Learners are encouraged to choose significant extracts (20-50 lines or 12-24 pieces dialogue) from the play they are reading, focusing on plot development, character evolution or theme expression. Then they translate their chosen passage into modern text messages (while adhering to standard grammar rules and punctuation). What if the characters from the Shakespeare play you are studying lived in the modern world and were texting one another? Maybe two actors are having a private chat, or a few are in a group chat. Demonstrate your comprehension of an important scene in the play by converting it into a modern communication medium: texting. Main Features: A sample converted passage from the play Twelfth Night so students can see the assignment in action. Blank text message pages for students to use when translating their own passage. Clear student instructions. A two-page reflection task to help students deeply comprehend their chosen passage. Questions Include: Summarize this part of the play in 3-4 sentences. Who are the main characters and what has been happening in the play before this scene? Why is this part of the play important? Make one or more connections to this passage. You can think of connections to yourself (did you ever feel the same way as the character?), connections to another novel or play you have read (is there something similar about the plot of the two stories?), or connections to current events (is this something that is still important hundreds of years after it was written?). A comprehensive rubric included for students to see how they will be assessed to to ensure easy and accurate marking!

The Electric Home - Electricity PBL Project
Science, Physics, Grade 8, 9, 10, Activities, Projects
I created this unit because I wanted to inject some real-life information into our electricity unit which is usually just filled with notes, worksheets, and other activities. I decided instead to do a flipped unit whereby I'd provide my students with all their notes ahead of time then use our class time to work on our project. This project will work very well for a wide range of grades as it can be easily tailored to fit your class. It's fully editable so you can add, remove, or change anything that you don't think will fit well with your class. To ensure it meets your classroom needs, I've included two different submission and marking criteria. One pair for lower levels and one for higher-level learners. Furthermore, this project can be given to different grade levels and all that needs to be altered are the teacher's expectations and standards while marking. Myinspirationfor this unit is the company, Tesla. I'm a self-proclaimed fanboy of the company and love their innovations and their desire for a greener future. However, as your students progress through this unit, they will discover other means of energy production, storage, and use. The project is broken down into two parts. The first part has the students researching the creation, use, and storage of solar energy. This should take between 8-12 days. The second part involves them putting that knowledge to use as they create a tangible representation of what they've learned. For this portion of the project, I gave them 3 class periods plus 10 days at home for a total of 11-15 class periods plus 10 additional days at home. This project covers the following NGSS: • MS-PS3-2 • MS-PS3-3 • HS-PS3-1 • HS-PS3-2 • HS-PS3-3 • HS-PS3-5 • MS-ESS3-3 • HS-ESS3-4 I also require that they share their Google Drive Project folder with me so that I could periodically check in on their progress. You may want to assign a grade for this as well. Their Unit This electricity unit is a mix of content and project-based learning (PBL) with an emphasis on PBL. Students will get the majority of class time to work on their project. During this time, you will have access to Chromebooks (netbooks,ipads, etc.) and will be given time to design and think about their model. You may also build during this time as well. Project Marks: - Poster - Model Research Component - ONE component will be looked at every 2 to 3 days. - If they finish before the allocated time ends, encourage them to keep working - Dive deeper into their research - Find pictures and paste them into their Doc - Find relevant videos and include them in their Doc I hosted this project on myGoogle Classroom site. If you're not familiar with Google Classroom, check out my post where I show you how to get your Google Classroom set up in 3 minutes . I highly recommend Google Classroom plus, it's free! For this project, I have my students working in groups of 2. If they miss a day, it's very easy to stay up-to-date via our Google Classroom site. To ensure students weren't rushing ahead, I would only upload the files below when we were ready to move on. I allocated between 2-3 days per "Day" below depending on the speed my students were working. • The Electric Home - Overview and Day 1 • The Electric Home - Day 2 • The Electric Home - Day 3 • The Electric Home - Day 4 • The Electric Home - Final Submission • The Electric Home - Rubric Each file is fully editable and is included in your download. This project will provide your students with a real-life example of green electricity use that they will keep with them after they leave your class.
