New Products: Puzzles on Genetics and Thanksgiving

Here are a couple of the latest additions!


Thanksgiving Escape Puzzle Room


Celebrate Thanksgiving and the fall in style! This escaped room is designed with four different codes (numerical, letter, and directional) hidden in puzzles and visual clues that lead to a hint to where the cooked turkey has been stashed. Students are setting up for their family to come over for Thanksgiving.

The clues and distractors are in PDF format to be printed off and distributed around a room with minimal additional work on your part. The instructions tells you how the clues are solved, the code, and where it leads to next.


Genetics Punnett Square Inheritance Logic Puzzle

This print-and-go logic puzzle allows students to practice understanding inheritance patterns and vocabulary by sorting three people and their phenotypes. They should have prior exposure to the terms hybrid, purebred, homozygous, and heterozygous. The types of inheritance reviewed are single Mendelian, incomplete, and codominance.

The secured PDF includes an answer key for teachers and substitute teachers.

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.

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!

Rubric Maker

I am a huge fan of project-based learning! As a result, I create lots of rubrics. Sometimes I write them myself and other times, I like to find premade ones to help me clarify the assessment piece. A co-worker in Colorado introduced me to Rubistar  years back. It's free and pretty user-friendly. They have several premade categories and criteria, but you can alter them to fit your needs. The website is old, but don't let that throw you off.
