6th Grade Math Spiral Review Escape Room Week 2 Day 1
Math, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets, Worksheets & Printables, Teacher Tools, Activities, Escape Room
Are you looking for a way to keep 6th grade math fresh without spending time on prep? Mini Math Escape Rooms are meant for exactly this purpose! Each is a fast, self-checking, digital math warm up, that you can use for spiral review, bellringers, or when you want to fill 10 minutes of spare time. Mission 1 is a 10-minute digital math escape room in which students must solve five math problems to find a numeric code. These problems will be in the same order and format each day, so your students will learn the system quickly and be able to complete a mission each day all year! Here is how it works: Students solve 5 math problems on one page. From each answer, they take the first digit of the number to find a 5-digit code. When they input the correct code, the mission is complete! If the code is incorrect, nothing happens, so there is no chance for students to guess and get hints about which answer is incorrect. This encourages students to go back and check all of their math before submitting their answer. The math skills are varied to promote spiral review. You'll find students: Find Greatest Common Factor Add fractions with unlike denominators Find percent of a number Solve a one-step equation Convert units These skills are on a rotation and spiral through as you complete missions. What is included: 1 mini digital math escape room (Mission 1) 5 math problems on one interactive page A printable worksheet version Answer key and final code This resource is super flexible; use it for your daily math warm up, bell ringers, early finishers, a review at the end of the day, or sub plans!

Biology Binder Covers – Templates for Classroom Use Organize your biology handouts, notes, and units with visual clarity Simple and flexible templates to help organize your biology materials In my biology classes, it can be a challenge to keep things organized - especially when it comes to multiple units, lab notes, worksheets and review materials. To make it easier for my students and myself, I designed these simple binder sleeves. There are 12 different pages. The covers have a clean, colorful blob layout that is friendly but not distracting. I usually print them out and use them as cover sheets or as dividers in folders for students or teachers. They also work well for digital learning environments, e.g. as section covers in PDF files or on classroom platforms. I like that the color scheme allows students to quickly find what they are looking for, and it brings a little more structure to a subject that is often riddled with formulas and technical terms. When used as cover sheets, students can choose their favorite color for their cover sheet. This resource is handy - and has saved me a lot of time in lesson preparation and follow-up. What’s included: 12 biology-themed cover pages different colors zu choose as a cover sheet as a divider between the individual biology topics I've printed these on colored paper for my own binder and also used them digitally in student notebooks. Works well for both teacher organization and student-facing materials. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Biology teacher (Chemistry teacher, Math teacher) in Germany Did You Know?

Correlation Does Not Equal Causation: Scientific Method and Critical Thinking Lesson for Middle Grades or High School
Social Studies, History, Psychology, Science, Basic Science, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Experiments, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets
Scientific Method and Critical Thinking Lesson for Middle or High School Students This lesson walks students through correlation and true experiments in an easy-to-understand and engaging manner. 12 different correlation examples are included. The package includes handouts, notes, diagrams , practice questions, a review, and answer key. How to Use: Print a 7 page package for each of your students. Present pages 1-4 on an interactive whiteboard and teach your students the basics of correlation (scatterplots, positive correlation, negative correlation, correlation coefficients, mistaking correlation as causation, media examples, reverse causation, third variables, etc.) as they fill in questions and notes. Then, students can do the practice questions on their own or in small groups (answer key included). Next, present page 6 to explain how to actually find causation in a true experiment : random selection, random assignment, dependent variable, independent variable, experimental group, control group, etc. Finally, students complete a one-page review (answer key included) Grades to Use With: This lesson was designed to be accessible to students as young as grade six all the way through high school. It could be an addition to a science unit about experimental methods, a science fair unit, a grade 8 math unit about scatter plots, or even a psychology class. Standards: CCSS8.SP.A.1 Construct and interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data to investigate patterns of association between two quantities. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association. CCSS8.SP.A.2 Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line.
