Then, students can do the practice questions on their own or in small groups (answer key included).

Scientist Lynn Margulis - Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Version (PDF & H5P) Lynn Margulis – Endosymbiosis and a New View of Evolution Fact Sheet, Quiz & Interactive Exercises (PDF + H5P) 🧫🔬 This 45-minute resource introduces students in grades 7–10 to Lynn Margulis – a scientist who challenged conventional ideas about evolution and opened up new ways of understanding how complex cells came to be. Many students are familiar with Darwin and natural selection, but fewer know about Margulis and her theory of endosymbiosis. Through her work in the 1960s and 70s, she proposed that parts of our cells – like mitochondria and chloroplasts – actually originated from ancient symbiotic bacteria. Her ideas weren’t widely accepted at first, but over time they became a foundational part of modern biology. To make this topic accessible, I’ve put together a compact, ready-to-use lesson with everything needed for a solid introduction. It includes a short informational text, a fact sheet, quiz questions with answers, and a creative partner task. All materials are available in both color and black-and-white versions, plus there’s an H5P version for digital use. What’s included: A student-friendly text about Lynn Margulis and her contributions to evolutionary biology A fact sheet to help students collect and structure key points Quiz questions with solutions for quick checks or review A pair activity where students create and exchange their own questions Printable PDF and interactive H5P formats for flexible use 💻 Answer key included ✅ I’ve used this resource as part of our evolution unit, especially when discussing how scientific theories develop and why some ideas take time to be accepted. It also fits well into lessons on women in science or interdisciplinary approaches to biology. The format allows for independent work, partner activities, or short projects – whatever suits your group best. 🚀 Download now and bring the legacy of Lynn Margulis 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. 🐶✨

Lincoln (2012): Complete Movie Guide & Walt Whitman Poem Analysis
Social Studies, History, History: USA, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
"Lincoln" is a historical drama film directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 2012. It focuses on the final months of President Abraham Lincoln's life and his efforts to pass the Thirteenth Amendment, which abolished slavery in the United States. Here's a summary of the movie: Set during the American Civil War in 1865, "Lincoln" follows President Abraham Lincoln (portrayed by Daniel Day-Lewis) as he strives to secure enough votes in the House of Representatives to pass the Thirteenth Amendment. Lincoln believes that abolishing slavery is crucial for the country's future and wants to ensure its passage before the war ends. Facing opposition from both Democrats and members of his own Republican Party, Lincoln engages in a high-stakes political battle. He assigns Secretary of State William Seward (played by David Strathairn) and three lobbyists, known as the "Three Amigos," to garner support for the amendment. While working to secure the necessary votes, Lincoln also deals with personal and emotional challenges. He faces tension within his family, particularly with his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln (portrayed by Sally Field), and is haunted by the immense loss of life in the war. As the debate over the amendment intensifies, Lincoln faces immense pressure to strike a balance between achieving his political goals and preserving the Union. The film showcases the backroom negotiations, political maneuvering, and the personal struggles of President Lincoln as he fights for the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment. In the end, through skillful persuasion and strategic maneuvering, Lincoln successfully secures the needed votes, and the Thirteenth Amendment is passed by the House of Representatives. The film concludes with Lincoln leaving the White House for Ford's Theatre, where he would be assassinated. "Lincoln" provides a glimpse into the life and character of one of America's most revered presidents, highlighting his political acumen, determination, and moral convictions. It portrays the complexities of the political landscape during a pivotal moment in American history and emphasizes Lincoln's enduring legacy as the leader who ended slavery in the United States. These teacher-generated questions (28 in total) are designed to help students focus in on key information during the movie. This movie guide also comes with Walt Whitman's poem "O Captain! My Captain!" Students will use SOAPS to analyze the poem after it is read. This movie guide is ready to print and use! Without a doubt this movie guide will serve as a teaching tool during this inspirational movie! Thumbnail Clipart: Prince Padania PDF Student version Teacher key Poem Analysis Sheet
