Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes
ELA, Writing, Graphic Arts, Creative Arts, Science, High School, Homeschool Resources, Middle School, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts, Teacher Tools, Graphic Organizers, Templates, Outlines
Are you ready to breathe new life into your science lessons? T hese Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes were born out of my own frustration as a homeschool mom trying to juggle curriculum planning while keeping my kids actually interested in science. Trust me, I have spent countless late nights staring at bland planning sheets thinking, "There has to be a better way!" After one too many uninspiring science lessons, I created these templates that have completely transformed how we approach science in our homeschool. These are not just another pretty printable—they are the answer to that moment when you realize your kiddo has retained exactly zero information from last week's lesson on photosynthesis! I have designed them to be your visual playground, where mapping out experiments and research activities becomes something you and your students/homeschoolers actually look forward to. My own teenage daughter went from groaning about science to pointing at their doodle notes saying, "Remember when we did that cool experiment?" The secret sauce? These notes engage both the logical and creative sides of your brain, which means those scientific concepts finally stick—no more blank stares when you ask, "Remember what we learned last Tuesday?" These have been a game-changer in our homeschool, and I can't wait for them to transform yours too! INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: ✔Comprehensive weekly science planning template with visually engaging design ✔Designated spaces for scientific learning objectives, content focus, and instructor information ✔Daily sections for documenting science classwork, lab activities, quizzes, and attendance ✔Specialized reading assignment sections for scientific texts and research articles ✔Homework planning areas with website research recommendations and writing prompts ✔Visual note-taking spaces that connect scientific concepts with creative representation ✔Structured organization that accommodates the unique needs of science instruction Sunday nights used to be my nightmare—frantically scrambling to plan science lessons while dreading the glazed-over looks I would get from my teenager the next day. Sound familiar? Those days are OVER! With these Weekly Science Syllabus Doodle Notes , I have actually caught myself looking forward to planning time (weird, right?). Let me tell you, juggling high school science with a creative teen who'd rather be doing anything else pushed me to my breaking point. My kitchen table was buried under boring worksheets that neither of us was excited about. That is when I decided to create these templates—not because I am some super-organized homeschool mom (ha!), but because I desperately needed something that would work for both my planning sanity AND my visually-oriented teenager. The magic happens when organization meets creativity! Now my daughter can actually see what is coming each week, and those complex scientific concepts finally stick because the visual elements speak her language. I still cannot believe how much easier our science days flow now! Seriously, grab these today—your future bleary-eyed, lesson-planning self will high-five you when you realize science class has transformed from a battle to the highlight of your homeschool week! If you and your students/homeschoolers enjoyed this resource, please leave a review. Thank you for your support! Tina - Big Easy Homeschooling Mom Website: tidewindacademyhomeschool.com

Chemistry Binder Covers – Templates for Classroom Use Organize your chemistry handouts, notes, and units with visual clarity Simple and flexible templates to help organize your chemistry materials In my chemistry 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 chemistry-themed cover pages different colors zu choose as a cover sheet as a divider between the individual chemistry 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 Chemistry teacher (Biology teacher, Math teacher) in Germany Did You Know? I teach with a certified therapy dog, and together we create a positive and inspiring learning environment. 🐶✨

Ever feel like your history lessons need a serious pick-me-up? After watching my teenager's eyes glaze over during one too many timeline activities, I knew I had to create something different! These Weekly History Syllabus Doodle Notes were born late one night at my kitchen table, surrounded by scattered history books and half-finished lesson plans that weren't working for either of us. As a fellow homeschool mom who's navigated the treacherous waters of teaching history to a teenager (who'd rather be doing ANYTHING else), I have poured all my real-world experience into these templates. Gone are the days of dry, boring history planning that puts both of us to sleep! Instead, I have created visual planning sheets that finally clicked for my visually-oriented teen. Now we're mapping out historical connections, documenting primary source readings, and planning research activities in a way that actually sticks! The magic happens when those historical concepts come alive through both organized planning AND creative visual elements. My daughter went from "Do we have to do history today?" to pointing out connections between historical periods on her own—I amnot kidding! These templates have completely transformed how history works in our homeschool, and I cannot wait for them to do the same for yours. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Comprehensive weekly history planning template with visually engaging design Designated spaces for historical learning objectives, content focus, and instructor information Daily sections for documenting classwork, discussions, quizzes, and attendance Specialized reading assignment sections for historical texts and primary sources Homework planning areas with website research recommendations and writing prompts Visual note-taking spaces that connect historical concepts with creative representation Structured organization that accommodates the unique narrative nature of history instruction Look, I am not going to pretend I'm some super-organized homeschool mom with color-coded bookshelves (my laundry pile would quickly disprove that myth!). But after years of history lessons that felt like pulling teeth, these doodle notes have honestly saved our homeschool history curriculum. Sunday afternoons used to find me stressed and overwhelmed, staring at history books and wondering how to make centuries-old events relevant to my tech-obsessed teen. Now? I actually look forward to mapping out our history week! The combination of chronological organization with visual creativity means concepts stick in a way they never did before. My daughter has gone from glazed-over eyes to making connections between historical periods on her own. No joke—last week she compared political patterns from ancient Rome to something in today's news WITHOUT PROMPTING! Grab these templates today, and in a few weeks, you will be texting your homeschool friends about how your kid suddenly loves history. (And they'll demand to know your secret!)
