Food Chain Game- Food chains, Food webs, Ecosystems, outdoors
This is one of the favorites of the year for my class. We go outside and play a sophisticated game of tag. Students are assigned different goals based on these instructions. As a teacher you can simulate different conditions by changing how many students are playing which role. For example, to simulate a forest fire have only a few plants left and see what happens to the ecosystem. To simulate overhunting we have too few wolves and too many deer. Give this a try it is a lot of fun!

Weathering and Erosion vocabulary can be difficult for students to master. Help your students by providing them with vocabulary matching cards. Students can work independently or together to match the term with the definition AND an illustrated example. Give your students a black and white copy OR print them in color and laminate for long term use. Instead of writing definitions, let them play a "matching", "go fish" or "memory" game for engaged learning!!

Online Scavenger Hunt: Smithsonian Museum
This is a super fun and easy activity for students of a wide variety of ages! Many students won’t have the opportunity to go in person to this museum, so using their online tour system is a great way to engage students in ‘real-world’ science. It is centered in some basic science knowledge of the classification of living things, but other than that is very accessible to most grades. It is a great independent or group task, so can be used for: - An extension activity for quick-working students -

Periodic Table Battleship
This is a great way to get kids to practice using the words period and group while getting acquainted with the periodic table. At a higher level you can have them practice the family names such as Noble gases or Alkali metals instead of Group numbers.
Another hint for memory is to write the words in their notes this way:
G

O
U

so they can have a visual reminder of which one goes up and down and which one goes side to side
