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

Newton's Third Law of Motion Practice Problems
The Newton's Third Law of Motion Practice Problems has questions and diagrams to really help students break down and understand the meaning of this law of interaction. In the first part, students look at simple examples to describe the action reaction force. Then, they identify the magnitude and direction of the reaction force given the magnitude and direction of the action force. Lastly, they look at several examples including a spring scale, air balloon, and car collision example to explain

Light Practice (Reflection, Refraction, Absorption)
This assignment is aligned to match the Texas SE 5.6C. The students first do a matching of vocabulary then look at 10 different images of light rays to determine if it is reflection, refraction, or absorption. This a perfect homework assignment, or independent activity, it could also be used in small grouping to tutor students who are struggling.

Ionic and Covalent Bonding Worksheet with Key
This worksheet (and Answer Key) is a great way to assess students' prior knowledge of ionic and covalent bonding. It is a great pre-assessment for high school chemistry classes, and a wonderful review activity for middle and high school classes that have already learned about bonding in class. On this sheet, you will find one example of a covalent bonding reaction and one example of an ionic bonding reaction. For each example, there are four questions that are specifically written to target stud

Valence Electrons worksheet/interactive notebook page
This worksheet in which students learn/process what they have learned about valence electrons and how this relates to an element's placement on the periodic table can be cut out along the dotted line and glued into interactive notebook. Vibrant pictures and graphics and fill in the blanks make it a great alternative for English language learners and struggling students to take notes. Great visual way for students to a somewhat confusing concept.

Motion Graph: Slope on Position vs. Time and Velocity vs. Time
The purpose of this file is to help students interpret the slope of the line on a position vs. time graph and velocity vs. time graph. For the position graph, students solve for the speed of an object during different line segments on a graph. Then, they solve for the slope of the line using the slope formula (change in y/change in x). Lastly, they connect the idea that the slope of the line on a position vs. time graph represents the speed. For the velocity graph, students describe velocity

Calculate WEIGHT = mass x acceleration due to gravity worksheet
This worksheet was made for my 7th graders and goes with Missouri GLE SC2FM2B07b (...an object's weight is a measure of the gravitational force...). It is also very appropriate for Physical Science or upper level courses. The worksheet contains over 40 calculations (10 questions have 3 parts each) and comes with a complete answer key with reconfigured formulas to help you and the students out. Another great tool to integrate math in science.

BUILD-AN-ATOM PROJECT
Put some art and crafts into your science class. Students will research an element of their choice. Then they will write a 1 page report about it, make a Bohr model, and finally build a three dimensional model of the atom. Visualizing atoms and energy levels will be simple with this project. They will love to see their atoms hanging all over the ceiling. Kids can work individually or in groups, in class or at home. Materials are generally of no cost, but the experience is priceless.
