Anchor charts build a culture of literacy in the classroom, as teachers and students make thinking visible by recording content, strategies, processes, cues, and guidelines during the learning process. Posting anchor charts keeps relevant and current learning accessible to students to remind them of prior learning and to enable them to make connections as new learning happens. Students refer to the charts and use them as tools as they answer questions, expand ideas, or contribute to discussions and problem-solving in class. This ENERGY bundle includes the following anchor chart templates: Includes the following.. -7 show what you know (energy, light, heat, thermal, sound, mechanical, electrical) -7 circle maps (energy, light, heat, thermal, sound, mechanical, electrical) -7 KWL Charts (energy, light, heat, thermal, sound, mechanical, electrical) - 5 picture source charts (light: lightbulb, heat: flame, thermal: flame, sound: headphones, electrical: plug) - 5 picture circle maps (light: lightbulb, heat: flame, thermal: flame, sound: headphones, electrical: plug) - 2 natural and artificial (Heat and Sound - Forms of Energy (MELTS) anchor chart - Forms of Energy chart anchor chart - Potential and Kinetic roller coaster anchor chart - Law of Conservation of Energy anchor chart - Sound Energy anchor chart - Electricity and circuits anchor chart - Conductors and Insulators anchor chart - Energy at Home anchor chart

Capturing the distinctive spirit of one of Scotland's most picturesque locales, this exquisite print invites the serene charm of Portree Harbour into your space. The vibrant tableau is steeped in the distinctive stylistic flourishes of Art Nouveau, with elegant, flowing lines and harmonious natural forms. At first glance, the eye is greeted by graceful boats, their masts standing tall and proud, mirroring the verticality of Portree's quaint, colourful facades that line the calm waterfront. The reflections cast upon the glassy harbour waters double the scene’s beauty, crafting an almost dreamlike symmetry that graces the composition with a tranquil stillness. Hints of a lush, rolling landscape in the background envelop the scene, creating an embrace of verdant hues that contrast beautifully with the bright pastel walls of the harbour's buildings. The thoughtful interplay of light and shadow, so deftly integrated into the scene, brings depth and volume to the structures, making them pop against the natural elements. The palate of this piece leans on a selection of greens, blues, and earth tones, punctuated with the stark whites and gentle yellows of the waterfront homes, encapsulating the vivid yet soothing palette typical of the Isle of Skye. This enchanting print from our 'Scottish Harbours' collection offers a tranquil glimpse into the highland's coastal life, an artistic homage to a cherished locale imbued with a sense of harmony and timeless charm.
The term ‘sundowning’ or ‘sundown syndrome’ refers to an end-of-day confusion and restlessness that manifests as dusk approaches. This syndrome affects people living with Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia. This psychological phenomenon causes behavioural problems that begin to occur as the sun is setting. Those affected may go into a heightened state of aggression or fearfulness, they may suffer from delusions or paranoia and will often begin pacing or wandering. In this article we cover: What is Sundowning? Sundowning Behaviour Management Common triggers to Sundowning Behaviours Strategies that may improve Sundowning Behaviour

April is National Poetry Month, and what better time is there to teach and explore poetry with your students?!?! I love to spend the month of April having students read, write, and share poetry in our classroom. At the beginning of my poetry units each year, I find that my students are often intimidated by poetry, especially when it comes to writing it. Over the years I have tried to find the perfect activities to ease them into writing their own poems. One of my favorite activities is taking my students on a Haiku Hike!! Several years ago I found this book, Haiku Hike from Scholastic. The story and poems in this book were written by a class of 4th grade students. The idea behind the book is that the students in this class went on a nature walk, and instead of taking pictures of the different things they saw, they used the form of haiku to capture different moments and scenes in nature. I loved this idea so much that I decided to implement it in my own classroom. Here’s how it works... What is Haiku? Before you take students on a Haiku Hike, you will need to make sure that they are familiar with this poetic form. Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry that is often used to describe nature or the seasons. Haiku is a three line poem that follows a specific pattern based on syllables: Line #1: 5 syllables Line #2: 7 syllables Line #3: 5 syllables I would suggest creating an anchor chart to discuss and display the elements of Haiku. Take a Hike! Once your students are familiar with Haiku, they are ready for their Haiku Hike. You could schedule a hike or nature walk as a mini field trip, but I simply take my students on a walk around the grounds of our school. Students take “field notes” throughout the hike. I ask them to take notes about what they see, hear, and feel, and encourage them to be as descriptive as possible. I also ask them to try to capture a moment in time or a scene in nature. Below is a page you can provide for students to record their field notes. Click HERE to download this FREEBIE!! Time to Write Once you return from your hike, it is time for students to turn their field notes into haiku. Ask them to write two to three poems based on their experiences and observations. They can write these drafts in a writer’s notebook or journal. Have students share their poems with you and their classmates for feedback. Then have them choose a final haiku to publish. Since students are using haiku to “capture” a scene or moment in time, you can have them use the Polaroid page below to record and illustrate their haiku. This page is also included in the free download!! These “snapshots” make a beautiful bulletin board for students to display their haiku!! This activity is the perfect way to ease students into writing their own haiku. It gets them outside to observe their environment. What better way to inspire nature themed poems, than going outdoors to explore?!?! If you are looking for more poetry activities, check out this blog post on my blog, Create Teach Share.

In this multi-day activity, students explore environments, ecosystems, energy flow and organism interactions by creating a scale model biodome through applying the engineering design process. The Procedure section provides activity instructions for Biodomes unit, lessons 2-6, as students work through Parts 1-6 to develop their model biodome. Subjects include energy flow and food chains, basic needs of plants and animals, and the importance of decomposers. Students consider why a solid understanding of one's environment and the interdependence of an ecosystem can inform the choices we make and the way we engineer our own communities. This activity can be conducted as either a very structured or open-ended design.

Ernst Haeckel was a turn of the century German biologist that changed the world with his scientific illustrations. Trained in many scientific fields, he not only named multitudes of species, he illustrated them as well. Wikipedia describes him as" an eminent German biologist, naturalist, philosopher, physician, professor and artist who discovered, described and named thousands of new species". Kunstformen der Natur, "Artforms of Nature" is the book of his intricate illustrations. Haeckel's illustrations of invertebrates influence the design world even today. This is a classic Finish 1960's Eero Aarnio mushroom lounge chair. Even basic shapes are mimicked in design. These military insignia are a perfect example of the influence of nature. Haeckel's work, as a design element, is still fresh... These drawings provide endless kaleidoscopic combinations of design. It is easy to see how rosettes and baroque scrollwork are based in the nature that Ernst Haeckel illustrated for us. Haeckel's illustrations can be found in his original book form or through reprinted copies.
Embark on a visual journey to the serene and unspoiled Langamull Bay, Isle of Mull, through this captivating print that embodies the essence of the Art Nouveau movement. Swirling natural forms and organic motifs come together to depict this quaint Scottish Cove, enveloping the viewer in a cosy embrace of pastoral beauty. The composition features a tranquil palette of soft blues, muted purples, and warm yellows, capturing the unique atmosphere of coastal Scotland—it's as if the fresh sea breeze and the gentle murmurs of the waves resonate within the artwork's very fibres. The sinuous lines and stylized natural elements are reminiscent of the intricate patterns and fluid designs favoured by the Art Nouveau icons, creating an idyllic landscape with a gentle, romantic feel. In the foreground, the fluid contours of the rocks and the delicate interplay of light and shadow tease the senses, guiding the eye towards the distant mountains that rise and fall like the breath of the highlands. The use of fading hues suggests depth and distance, drawing the onlooker into this otherworldly haven where land, sea, and sky converge. Ferns and heather subtly gain shape through an array of green and orange hues, lending the scene a rich, tapestry-like quality that entices one to explore every detail. This scene is a celebration of the natural curvature found in these undisturbed Scottish coves, an ode to a corner of the world where time seems to stand still. Whether you are a lover of fine art or passionate about the rugged charm of Scotland, this print will become a treasured feature in any space, an ever-present reminder of the elegant simplicity and captivating allure found in nature's embrace.
“When I work with driftwood, I never start with a blank canvas. Each piece of driftwood is already a sculpture, created by the caresses of the waves and wind.” –Debra Bernier
