Jacques Monod – Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive PDF incl. H5P

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? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨

ELA, Reading, Reading Comprehension, Grammar, Language Development, Phonics, Grade 1, 2, Teacher Tools, Lesson Plans, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Reading can be made easier with these phonic helps that repeatedly encourage students to practice these Ending Digraph sounds. Learning how to read can be the most challenging activity for many students and for a teacher. A digraph in the English language are two letters put together that represents a single sound or phoneme. Understanding that the combination of letters can make one sound can be difficult to master and requires repetitive practice of reading and writing these words with these sounds. This unit focuses only on the Ending Digraph sounds. There are other phonics units that I sell that focuses on the Beginning Digraph sounds, and one that focuses on all three digraph sounds in the Beginning, Middle and End. Activities include reading comprehension and identifying the digraphs in their reading, writing their answers to questions regarding the paragraph, identifying additional ending digraph words in sentences using a word bank, matching words with pictures, spinning a paperclip activity where students will write the word with the digraph sound, and lastly a fun wordsearch with the ending digraph words. These activities are for each digraph so there is plenty of opportunities for students to practice their comprehension reading skills and phonic sounds. Students will practice the following Ending Digraph sounds: ck, ng, sh, th, and nk. Teachers can use this resource in whole group, individually with students, students can practice with each other in centers, or they can be assigned as homework. Worksheets are also differentiated for each Ending Digraph sound for all young learners which makes it perfect for all 1st - 2nd graders. A total of 33 pages full of reading and phonic activities. Along with reading and writing, there are matching, cutting, and pasting activities. Word searches and spin and make a word activity are also a part of this packet which make learning to read these phonic sounds entertaining for young learners.

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.

How to Use: 1. On Day 1, have your students complete the first worksheet. They can use the included website to look at a variety of different stocks and their historical performances. They will divide up their thousand dollar investment between two different companies, and calculate how many shares the will be able to buy from each company they picked to invest in. 2. Then, schedule three separate classes over the next month or so to check on the stocks. Each time, your students will record that day's current share price and calculate their shares' current investment value. 3. On the final day, your students will calculate how much money they have gained or lost during the project. Then, each student will provide their gain or loss which will allow the calculation of your class's average stock performance during the project. [You can project the included table on a board and each student can fill in their gain or loss.] 4. Next, students will find out how the stock market performed on average during the timeframe of the project. They will utilize data from the S&P 500 to see if their class's average was better or worse than the stock market itself. 5. Finally, students will write a reflection about this project. A variety of prompts are included to help your students think about volatility, lower risk of ETFs, and the importance of thinking about how long one can invest their money. Sample calculations are provided for each step to help model for your students.

A beautiful hand-illustrated watercolor print features a fun little clownfish and its anemone home complete with anatomical labels. Great for learning more about these fascinating creatures, using in nature study, or just as a display print. There are two poster options (with or without the black labeling lines) and two posters without labels so children can add their own. To create a lasting and tactile item, I highly recommend printing the file onto watercolor paper. It creates a beautiful finish and looks like you are handling original paintings.

Letter O Worksheets + PowerPoint Lesson: Beginning Sounds Lesson 15
Special Resources, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Language Development, Phonics, Speech Therapy, Kindergarten, Preschool, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables, Presentations, Teacher Tools
Letter O Worksheets + PowerPoint Lesson Lesson 15 teaches the letter Oo and its related phonic sound through a 37-slide PowerPoint lesson, and 5 follow-up activity worksheets. All you need to teach the phonic letter O! Whether in school or at home, this series of phonic presentations can help you effectively teach initial/beginning sounds to all pupils, including those with special needs/dyslexia. This lesson is part of a synthetic, systematic phonics programme for all abilities, including those suspected of being dyslexic. This lesson is in the first stage of the Reading Made Simple programme, where we teach the initial, or beginning, sounds. The ability to hear the initial/beginning sound is stressed throughout, while we learn to associate each letter with its sound. Each lesson can stand alone, but the activities will presume knowledge of the previous letters in the alphabet as Reading Made Simple teaches the initial sounds in alphabetical order. Special features of the Letter O Worksheets and PowerPoint presentation: The PowerPoint is silent so that you can interact with your child in the best way for them: full instructions are provided at the bottom of each slide - be sure to show 'Notes'. The PowerPoint is editable so that you can make it fit your pupils. Science of Reading Aligned Truly phonetic; no 'i' for 'ice-cream'. We focus heavily on phonemic awareness, which is so necessary for a head start in phonics The child is given plenty of opportunities to learn the necessary skills - perfection is not expected in lesson 1. Still, the teacher will look for the development of the necessary skills as the child works through the alphabet. What is included in the Letter O worksheets Pack? A 37-slide PowerPoint which teaches phonemic awareness, letter/sound correspondence and letter formation, along with practice games 5 follow-up, Letter O worksheets How can this resource be used? It can be used in multiple ways: As the child learns each sound, you can use the PowerPoint lesson to reinforce your lesson It can be sent home for a child to watch with his/her parents after being taught the letter Oo in class - this will then act as revision as well as training the parent as to what is necessary to help the child. Use in class Use at home by parents or for home education Suggested Method: Introduce each letter in turn to your pupil. Have a flashcard of the letter ready. Say each letter's sound to the child and ask him/her to repeat it thrice. Explain that some words begin with this sound. Give an example. You can use the lesson as teacher training for yourself, to learn how to teach your child, or to use it with the child. Choose suitable activities (matching your child's ability) from the pack of worksheets. Notes are suggestions only. Use language appropriate to your pupil and be sure to interact naturally. However, could you focus on the child's hearing of the sounds at the beginning of words? This is often overlooked in the quest to help children learn the initial sounds as quickly as possible. Technical help: Please open PowerPoint in normal mode so you can see the notes and use the 'Draw' tool when prompted. Some slides are interactive.
