This fully planned out unit, straying away from Climate Anxiety and allowing students to build agency related to climate action, can be printed right out of this document and used in the classroom immediately. Designed for use in Grades 5–7 (ages 10–14), students will progress through this unit comprehensively by learning about the Carbon Cycle, measuring their actual CO₂e emissions, and creating their own personal plan for sustainability. The unit provides scientific text, real-world case studies (i.e. The Life of a White Cotton T-shirt), 10 individual audit worksheets related to home energy, transportation, diet, consumption, and water use. There is a Carbon Calculator provided which translates students' daily habits into actual data as well as templates for SMART Goal Setting and Advocacy Letters to promote action from students after completing the project. The materials align with NGSS (Earth and Human Activity Standard) and are ideal for Earth Day, STEM, or to promote Environmental Literacy throughout the rest of the school year. Not only does this package come with an extensive Teacher's Guide complete with answer keys, grading rubrics, visual aids, and a flexible 5-day pacing guide; the materials have been scaffolded to help mitigate eco-anxiety with both kindness and evidence-based science. The highlights include: 4 engaging chapters on greenhouse gases, CO₂e, and Life Cycle Assessment 10 student audit worksheets and a Carbon Calculator to synthesize student audit results SMART Goals Workshop for setting student action plans and evaluating systemic actions Professional writing activity related to Advocacy Letters A comprehensive Teacher Key, including Answer Keys, Grading Rubrics, and 5-Day Unit Plan All materials have been classroom-tested and proved to be effective. Appreciated by Parents and Educators: Empowerment Versus Fear – Empowers children and youth to make positive changes by turning their fear of climate change into tangible steps they can take themselves. Real-World Math/Data Skills – Develops mathematics and data-based skills through the calculation of CO₂e from current activities, reinforcing applied math and unit conversion skills and improving critical thinking. Systems Thinking – Students develop a deeper understanding of system relationships and the ripple effects of human activity on the ecological system through Life Cycle Assessment (T-shirts) and permafrost feedback loops. Teacher-friendly, Minimal Prep/Materials Needed – All materials required for implementation are provided (e.g., rubrics, answer keys, visuals, and 5-day pacing guides), so even non-science specialists can implement without difficulty. Opens Up Conversation at Home/School/Community – The advocacy letter and family audit provide an avenue for discussion beyond the classroom, resulting in actual changes to household sustainability. Targeted Grade Levels: The statement in the introduction clearly states that targeted grade levels are ‘5th, 6th, and 7th Grade.’ Therefore, because the math being introduced in this program involves multiplication, metric/unit conversions, basic percentage reasoning and cognitive complexity, I believe students in grades 5 through 7 will best use this resource as follows: Primary Group: 5th – 7th Grade (10-13 year olds) Secondary/Extension Group: (4th Grade) Advanced; 8th – 9th Grade as a basic review of what they learned in grades 5 and/or 6.

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.

Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially + PDF Version

Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially + PDF Version
Science, STEM, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Technology, Basic Science, Biology, P.E. & Health, Homeschool Templates, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Experiments, Activities, Labs, Worksheets & Printables, Escape Room, Games, Presentations, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes

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? – Chemical Elements Game (1–118) – 3 Levels of Differentiation A cooperative chemistry card game for grades 7–10 to review atomic numbers, element names, and symbols 🧪🎯 This resource is a classroom game that helps students become more confident with the chemical elements – from hydrogen to oganesson. The game follows the well-known “I have… who has?” format and is designed to reinforce students’ understanding of element names, symbols, and atomic numbers in a playful and interactive way. To support different learning levels, the material includes three differentiated versions of the full game, each with 118 element cards: With element names for both question and answer (beginner level) Only the “I have…” part includes the name , the question uses the symbol/number (intermediate level) Without element names – players must match based on symbol and atomic number alone (advanced level) Each version builds on the last and can be used flexibly depending on students' prior knowledge. The game works best with medium to large groups and encourages students to listen carefully, stay engaged, and support one another. What’s included: 3 full card sets (118 cards per set = 354 total) Differentiated by content and level of language support Clear instructions for printing, laminating, and use Ideal for individual, pair, or group work How I use it in class: I’ve played this game both at the end of a chemistry unit and as a fun opener when starting the periodic table. It’s also perfect for substitute lessons or for classes with mixed ability levels. Since each student needs to be ready when their card comes up, it fosters attention and collaboration. This is one of those games where learning happens almost by accident – students are so focused on playing that they internalize atomic numbers and symbols without even noticing. A simple, engaging way to bring structure, repetition, and movement into chemistry class – no extra prep needed. If you're looking for an easy way to help students become more confident with the periodic table, this might be worth trying in your classroom. Best, 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?

Homologous Series of Alcohols – Word Search Activity (Differentiated) A flexible review task for organic chemistry lessons (Grades 8–11) 🧪🔍 Alkanols Alcanoles This set of word search puzzles offers a quiet but focused way for students to review the homologous series of alcohols in organic chemistry. Instead of asking for definitions or formulae, students engage with key terms through active searching – which can be a surprisingly effective way to reinforce terminology. The material includes 10 word search puzzles , each in two variants (A/B), with five levels of difficulty . These levels are marked with stars (1 to 5), so you can easily differentiate within your classroom. Puzzles vary by grid size and by the direction in which words are hidden – from simple (only forward) to more challenging (also backward and diagonal). The content covers terminology related to the alcohol functional group and homologous series, making it a suitable supplement to introductory or review units in organic chemistry. What’s included: 10 unique puzzles × 2 variants (A and B) 5 differentiation levels based on grid size and word direction Answer keys for all puzzles Color and black-and-white versions for easy printing Chemistry-themed clipart to add visual appeal Ideas for classroom use: I’ve used these word searches both as a quiet review tool and as a warm-up or cool-down at the beginning or end of a lesson. The A/B version is especially useful for classroom management – students working side by side aren’t tempted to copy but still complete equivalent tasks. Students often appreciate the variety, especially when switching between more structured exercises and creative, self-paced activities. Whether as an individual task, a group competition, or a calming option during busy weeks – this resource supports technical vocabulary in a format that feels low-pressure and accessible. A simple and effective addition to your chemistry toolkit. Have fun exploring the world of science with your students! Warmly, Lernfitness Did You Know?
