The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate-129 Words for Your Word Wall

(0)
129 key vocabulary terms from The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate by Jacqueline Kelly. What a great novel to read in Science class, OR in Language Arts class! Follow the determined Callie Vee as she denounces the boundaries defined for girls in 1899 Texas. She wants to be a scientist, seeks out to discover a new species, and reads Darwin's work. A must-read! Each word has a definition AND a picture clue.

Environmental Coat of Arms

(0)
Students make an environmental coat of arms--expressing the following: A symbol of what is most important about the environment (to them), a motto for the environment, what they want for the environment in the future, and what they are going to personally do to help the environment. Would make a great bulletin board, mini project, etc.

Oceanography ESCAPE ROOM Lesson!

(0)
Students identify oceans, know about ocean sizes and comparisons, open different boxes to get more clues. Don't have boxes? That's ok! Create your own escape room experience with envelopes or pencil boxes. Have students decipher and answer questions about tides, currents and waves. Students demonstrate their oceanography knowledge AND have a blast! Setup for 7 different groups, seven different codes. You can adapt it to fit an envelope system OR a 3 digit resettable lock. I bought mine (not resettable) at Dollar Tree, combos are on the outside of the package, so that is an option too! Use this as inspiration for even more Escape Room Lessons! INCLUDES: 7 different ocean problem sets for box/envelope 2's code 7 different Ciphers and questions/problems for box/envelope 3 7 tickets to give students the code for the locks TWO DIFFERENT (1 min or 2 min) Speed Bump Cards (color-coded) for each group. (So fun to throw a team out for a minute or two--also color-coded) Hint Tickets/Cards for all 3 boxes, color-coded so you can keep track of whom you have given hints to Need an editable version to customize it to your locks?
