Solar Eclipse Activity

With the upcoming solar eclipse, I wanted to create an activity to help students understand the occurrence. You can download this FREE resource here.

Essentially, students work in small groups to create working models of a solar eclipse using the engineering process of design, evaluate, and improve.

I am hoping I will get the chance to observe the eclipse this year!

Another great free resource is the Teaching Channel . I used it when I was looking for ideas on teaching middle schoolers integers. On the website, I found a video and lesson plan for a scenario a teacher set up for her students to make it more tangible. They email weekly with videos on various topics, like common core.

Nitrogen and Carbon Cycle Foldable

I was inspired to create foldables for my 6th graders on the carbon and nitrogen cycles after viewing one created by the blog " The Inspired Classroom ". She had created a much cuter one for the water cycle. Please forgive my pictures, descriptions, and handwriting. :) If you would like a free copy of the nitrogen foldable or carbon foldable , you can find it at My Teachers Pay Teachers.
