Friend or Foe Garden Game: Pests and Pollinators
This is an original game I invented and used at school gardens in California and Texas - HUGE HIT! It's fun to challenge students' knowledge and INTUITION about creatures that might be found in nature and around the garden. All photos are original!
Students learn by playing the game. Find out which insects are beneficial and why. Instead of instantly swatting at all insects, students will respect the role they play, e.g., predator, member of the food web, pollinator, etc.

Science Project Rubric
Science Project Rubric is a great resource for evaluating student science projects of any kind. The rubric is focused on organization, creativity, and content for a PowerPoint, poster, science display, group project, display case, replica, diagram, etc. of all sorts and kinds. This rubric is a resource that can be saved and used day after day, month after month, and year after year. Also, I left it in a Word Document so that it is easily adaptable to each educator's needs/wants. Happy Teaching :
