I love the look in my kids eyes when I tell them that we are going to do a science experiment! So, what better way to encourage learning than through a Chemistry Lesson Plan for kids! This mega list of chemistry resources includes (FREE) math worksheets, kids magazines and writing prompts. And, of course, we […]
If you want to try more science activities and experiments with your kids, one of the best experiments to start with is the magic pepper experiment. This experiment teaches kids about surface tension and what happens if you change the surface tension of water. Little kids especially love to see this experiment and action and will beg to try the science experiment over and over again.
In this post, I explain how I sequence my teaching of the sub-microscopic concepts: atomic structure and electronic configuration during distance learning using interactive activities in Google Jamboard.
When hands-on labs aren't possible, technology comes to the rescue. Here are my top picks for virtual labs and simulations for high school science.

Use these fun chemistry-themed student grouping tables (Periodic Partner Appointment Clocks) to mix up your middle or high school students for activities and labs! This is similar to an "appointment clock", only Chemistry themed using the Periodic Table and element names! The first three pages are for pairing students by twos, threes, and fours, respectively. Use these sheets if you plan to use this system often for grouping your students. The fourth page accommodates various sized groups in one; using this sheet makes the pairings quicker, although there is less diversity of groupings…use this sheet if you are planning to use this pairing system sparingly. To use these groupings, just tell the students which element group they will be working with for the activity and have them check their 'Periodic Partners' table and sit with their group members for that element! I have included helpful hints for the teacher for smoothly facilitating the pairings. This is a great activity for one of the first days of class when the kids are getting to know each others' names.

I've been reading the book, Mindsets in the Classroom by Mary Cay Ricci, and just finished chapter 3. It was a real eye-opener. Through all of my years of teaching, I thought I was differentiating by planning and implementing reteaching and enrichment lessons and activities as my class worked through a unit. But in this chapter, I learned how important it is to start the differentiation before the unit even begins! This process begins with the preassessment. So much valuable information can be gathered before you begin teaching a unit. The purpose of the preassessment is to find how much students understand the content before you plan and teach the unit. Do they have a complete understanding of the content? Then they will need enrichment and/or accelerated activities. Do they have a partial understanding of the content? Then you need to make note of the gaps in their learning so you can plan accordingly. Checklists are a great way to keep track of the objectives and student mastery. From this checklist, you will also see students that need to be grouped for instruction. Keep in mind that this grouping will change as students master the objectives. Another insight I gained from this chapter is the different types of assessments used in a classroom. I put together this graphic to sum up the three types of assessment you should be using in your classroom. Click on the image to download the pdf version.

Join our book club, Romantic Yarns, to discus An Island Princess Starts A Scandal by Adriana Herrera. Show off your current WIP while talking romance novels with other readers. Your event fee helps cover snacks, drinks, goodies, and project bags for new members. This is an in-person event that takes place in our shop at 61 Thayer Street on Wednesday July 17th, 2024 from 6pm-8pm. Book Description: Minor leagues. Major chemistry.Hope is familiar territory for Gene Ionescu. He has always loved baseball, a sport made for underdogs and optimists like him. He also loves his team, the minor league Beaverton Beavers, and, for the most part, he loves the career he’s built. As the first openly trans player in professional baseball, Gene has nearly everything he’s ever let himself dream of—that is, until Luis Estrada, Gene’s former teammate and current rival, gets traded to the Beavers, destroying the careful equilibrium of Gene’s life.Gene and Luis can’t manage a civil conversation off the field or a competent play on it, but in the close confines of dugout benches and roadie buses, they begrudgingly rediscover a comfortable rhythm. As the two grow closer, the tension between them turns electric, and their chemistry spills past the confines of the stadium. For every tight double play they execute, there’s also a glance at summer-tan shoulders or a secret shared, each one a breathless moment of possibility that ignites in Gene the visceral, terrifying kind of desire he’s never allowed himself. Soon, Gene has to reconcile the quiet, minor-league-sized life he used to find fulfilling with the major-league dreams Luis inspires.This triumphant debut romance reveals what’s possible when we allow ourselves to want something enough to swing for the fences.
