Gizmos

I found this website in my quest for new tools and simulations. It's called Gizmos. The screenshot below shows their photosynthesis activity. 


The simulations are reminiscent of PhET from the University of Colorado Boulder. They look amazing, but I do not have a paid account to delve into it. You can look at the simulations for up to five minutes per day without an account. After that, you must sign up for an account. The free trial is offered for a limited time before a paid subscription is required.

What other resources have you found?

Biomes Foldable

I had way too much fun making this.  My students are going to be learning about these biomes next and I created this example of the finished product and one with the pictures/words without the cuts.  I photocopied the sheet and shrunk it to 75%.  The students will cut it out, fold down the extra space on the left side, and glue it in their notebooks.  Underneath each tab, they will write characteristics of the biomes. I am clearly on a foldable kick!  Thank you snow days. :) I did create a digital version of this for you to download on my Teacher Pay Teachers. It's free!
