Net Force: Balanced and Unbalanced Forces Practice Problems
I created this net forces worksheet to help my students practice finding the net force and to determine whether forces are balanced or unbalanced. For the first 15 questions, students draw a free body diagram to describe the forces acting on an object. Then, they determine the magnitude and direction of net force and describe whether or not the object's velocity is affected. For the last 5 questions, student summarize how balanced and unbalanced forces affect an object's motion. I hope this l

Mapping the Ring of Fire Worksheet with keys for Earthquakes and Volcanoes.
This is great worksheet to show students how a seismologist would collect seismic data and plot the coordinates on a map. The coordinates map out the boundaries of the Ring of Fire. You might have to spend a little time teaching the students how to read longitude and latitude but if they have had any experience graphing coordinates in Math then it shouldn't be too difficult. The biggest problem is the East is on the left side of the map and West is on the right. I had to spend a little time with

Calculating and Graphing Speed - The Tortoise and the Hare TEKS 6.8C 6.8D
Need help connecting calculating speed to motion graphs?
I use this worksheet to reinforce what my students know about motion graphs and have them connect that to speed calculations. We walk through this together. I have them graph the Hare first and have them tell me what they know about his speed based on what we graphed. Then we calculate his speed and compare it to what was predicted. I do the same with the Tortoise. The we compare which parts of the graph indicate a change in speed and fina

Importance of learning science
Learning science is particularly important for students as it equips them with the essential knowledge and skills to make sense of the world around them. Science education is not just about memorizing facts. It fosters critical thinking, inquiry, and problem-solving abilities. These skills are not only useful in school but also in everyday life beyond the classroom.
Benefits of learning science
Learning science offers many benefits to students both in school and beyond. In fact, it helps students:
- Question the world around them and seek evidence-based explanations
- Cultivate their ability to observe, experiment, and analyze data
- Nurture a sense of curiosity, awe, and wonder about the natural world
- Understand natural phenomena and the laws that govern the universe
With a solid foundation in science, teachers can help empower students to think critically, solve problems, make informed decisions, and engage with the world around them in meaningful ways.
Teaching with science resources
One of the best parts about science class is all of the possibilities for hands-on, collaborative learning! Think: labs, experiments, inquiry-based activities, and design challenges. These activities encourage students to explore scientific concepts by observing, asking questions, and conducting investigations. Additionally, with small group centers, students can engage in group experiments, discussions, and projects that require them to collaborate, share ideas, and solve problems together.
