      To connect this activity to writing, have children make up stories that go along with the fossils they create. They can write as if they found the fossil or write about the place and time the fossil is from.

      When doing an assessment vary questions asked to help them remain successful. Most students should have no problems assembling the sandwich. If the noise does not agree with a student, consider making another instrument, like a drum to keep them involved.

    Awesome activity to shows students about sound. This site has video tutorials and 3 links that provide a concept map, instructions to perform activity in class or in after school activities, and websites that allow students or educator go deeper in their understanding of sound. You can essentially make your own assessment for the activity.

      I have seen a pasta butterfly life cycle created on a paper plate divided into fourths (similar to the one I shared in class that used other materials) which helps to emphasize the cyclical nature because next to the adult section is the egg section which starts the process all over again.

    Students will learn to identify the four stages of a butterfly's life cycle.

      This is simple for most students to take part in, but be sure to put students in pairs to help assist those with needs to put together the experiment correctly. When assessing it may require pictures to have students explain what is being done.

      6.4.2 Construct a simple device that uses potential or kinetic energy to perform work. Differentiation: Gifted students could go a step further and cover the next standard "6.4.3 Describe the transfer of energy amongst energy interactions" and do a write up on how energy was transferred during this activity
  • Liz Dilts on 16 Feb 12
     
    This is a familiar activity!  This fun activity teaches students about harnessing potential and kinetic energy!  Very good for students who need to learn or like to work in teams!  Also would be fun on a family night.

      I just loved this craft activity. It would be the perfect activity to do after you talked about the life cycle of a butterfly. This gives the kids who need more hands on activity the ability to explain what happens to a butterfly. After they make it have the students talk about the cycle in their own words.

  • This is a great opportunity to talk about electricity as a form of energy and its conversion into heat, light and motion, and vice versa. Also, it's a good time to discuss how a power plant works and perhaps organize a field trip to a wind farm, solar energy farm, or power plant. Solar panels make very exciting demos and are avaiable at SEP. Also, consider helping make your school a solar school.

    state standard: 2.1.7 Doesn't the title of the activity say it all, dancing raisens. Just telling the 2nd graders about what you are planning on doing is going to grab their attention. It is also exciting for them to do activities with things that they know.

      You could combined with lesson with a lesson on graphing as well by asking students to record how many times each math sentence occurs and graphing the result.  Since you are essentially flipping coins you should get a nice bell curve.

      when doing this lesson make sure you explain vocabulary for ELL students, for example explain what blueprints are and what an architect is...etc.
  • Jessica Buell on 28 Jan 12
     
    ok, this particular one is to be done on the computer. However, you could easily make this a project the whole class can do by giving them graph paper, rulers, and certain measurements they have to keep thier apartment in. LOVE this idea!
