Collection Contents
5 Kingdoms Presentation Project
by Robert LucasStudents create a Powerpoint presentation about one organism from each of the five kingdoms. This file includes the directions and rubric.
Water Drop Project
by Janet PintoThis unit is intended to help students discover the microorganisms that live in water. They will learn the structures and life functions of protists and recognize the similarities between them and multicellular organisms. The project is a "learn by teaching" activity for the high school students who will be teaching this information to elementary students.
Food Web Project
by Janet PintoStudents create a poster illustrating and describing three separate food webs that represent a marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystem.
Day 6: Biome Project Guideline
by Micki Halsey RandallGuideline for developing the final product for the biome project.
Day 6: Biome Project Rubric
by Micki Halsey RandallScoring Rubric for the biome project.
Project: Science in Songs
by Virginia MaloneThis is a short take home project, requiring students to ask science related questions about song lyrics. I reserve the right to approve the songs the students choose.
Written Report Rubric (for Science Video or PowerPoint Project)
by science28 panamaA rubric for their written report would be helpful in making visible those invisible expectations. It was created as an assessment for a Science Video Project, but can used with other science projects.
Project: Edible Cell
by Robert LucasIn this project, students make a cell, including organelles, out of edible materials. This folder contains a rubric and student planning worksheet. This resource is part of the Developing Biology course which contains units on Microscopes; Biochemistry; Cells; Cellular Transport; DNA; Photosynthesis and Respiration; Mitosis and Meiosis; Genetics; and Evolution.
Video Rubric
by science28 panamaA rubric to help the students make visible our invisible expectations. It was created as an assessment for a Science Video Project, but can be modified for use with other video projects.
Power Point Presentation Rubric
by science28 panamaA rubric to help students in making visible our invisible expectations.
Microscope Brochure Project
by Robert LucasStudents create a brochure or manual advertising and explaining the class's microscopes. This resource was origininally posted at teacherslounge.editme.com by Ms. Frizzle.
Virtual Zoo Collaborative Research Project
by Jason SchmidtOver the course of this unit, students will collaboratively research, organize, and develop fact sheets on a variety of animals to be included in a virtual zoo. Various technology tools will be used in this process.
Mitosis flip book
by Jamie LovittThis is a very cool assignment that helps the students "see" the phases of mitosis (and the larger cell cycle). It is project based, which helps with classroom management! The essence of the flip book is that the students draw the changes happening very slowly on the different pages of the book, so that when the pages are flipped through, the Cell Cycle happens seamlessly! The students love it.
