FREEBIE Darwin's Big Adventure

This resource is amazing! SWSmith Books, a new store, has worked hard to create differentiated science readings. This is one of many stories they have available.

They are a 6th and 7th-grade teacher who wanted to have readings that don't make students feel inadequate when it comes to reading. They include a glossary, leveled readings, and vocabulary words that stand out for ease of implementation.


This specific resource on Darwin is 58 pages with small chapters on the history of Darwin's trip to the Galapagos Islands. There are "words to know" at the beginning of each chapter and review questions at the end. The answer key is included. If you like the resource, you can purchase the bundle for the tiered levels.

They also have their website, if you're interested in looking at their books and novels.

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.

Pinterest: Find and Save Ideas

This is another one of those posts that I'm not sure why I have not written about it before! As a new teacher, I did not have a PLC for the first few years. There were some ideas I was able to borrow from teachers in my building, but I had to create my curriculum. That's where Pinterest became a huge time saver! How it works: Add the Chrome extension - as long as a picture is on the website you would like to save, you can create a brand-new pin. Download the app to your phone- sift through already created pins when you have downtime to get inspired. Use the website - You can create new pins like you would with a browser extension and find existing pins. It's easier to organize your pins, send pins, and add collaborators on the website (in my opinion). You can check out my science board here for some ideas I love and have been inspired by. You will also notice some of my creations as well.

Algae and Fertilizer Lab

 I am currently working on writing lesson plans for MS-LS2-4. I decided to offer a lab I created for the lesson plans as a stand-alone. You can find it here !
