Ecosystems- Roadrunners and Coyotes NGSS Middle School LS2-1
Turn your students into an active ecosystem. This activity is similar to the classic Oh Deer simulation with a roadrunner and coyote twist. This sequence of NGSS aligned activities/assessments includes two simulation activities in which students are in the roles of a population of roadrunners, a predator (coyote), and resources (food, water, shelter). Students collect, graph, and analyze data to look for cause and effect relationships in an ecosystem. Reading and writing pages are included along

Investigating the Spread of a Viral Outbreak
Students in grades 5 - 9 model the spread of an infectious disease under the entertaining theme of a zombie outbreak. One student unknowingly is patient zero and students simulate the spread of an airborne illness. This highly engaging activity covers health topics, nature of science, and math skills as students graph data in a line plot. Higher level students can be challenged to find the function of the exponential growth of the outbreak.

Stock Market Simulation Challenge I Digital Learning
What better way to understand how the stock market works than to simulate it in your classroom? To make it a competitive project! This simulation contains the project worksheets, hyperlinks, research guides, and graphs needed for your students to "purchase" their own stock and track it's value over time. This project was written to accompany Gary Paulsen's book "Lawn Boy," but it can be used with or without this book.These activities are suitable for upper-elementary and middle grade students

Interactive Online ELab Simulations Lab - Shopping Unit Rates Lab
In this FREE online interactive simulation provided by PhET, developed by the University of Colorado, students will explore unit rates through the process of buying goods. Students will explore how shopping uses unit rates to determine the price of various goods. Students will need a computer, tablet or IPad. These simulations were designed for IPad use. This handout goes directly with the Elab and contains directions on accessing the lab online as well as directions on how to complete the lab.

Ordered Pairs: Quadrants & Signs
This 16-slide PowerPoint presentation stresses quadrant location and the signs of the ordered pairs that fall into each particular quadrant. It assumes prior knowledge of plotting & identifying points in the coordinate plane. Examples lead students to try to first figure out on their own what a set of un-plotted order pairs have in common. The pairs will fall in the same quadrant and all x-coordinate signs will match as well as all y-coordinates matching. Students can take a 5-question quiz

Number Lines: Distance between Points
This 23-slide PowerPoint presentation is recommended as useful instruction before learning to calculate distance between points in a coordinate plane (CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.NS.C.8). It is meant for students who have already learned about absolute value, but have not learned about basic operations involving negative numbers yet (i.e. addition/subtraction). Students will learn how to calculate the distance between any two points on a number line using their absolute values. They will see that this s

M'Kenna Lesson 8 | In Person
Based on OpenSciEd's Metabolic Reactions unit. Students finish their graphs from the villi simulation. They complete a graph on paper and using a spreadsheet, then answer reflection questions. Students should decide that taller villi allow for more food absorption because they have more cells, and more cells mean more "doorways" the food molecules can go through. Most will also decide that M'Kenna's villi are probably short or flat. If they need further evidence they can think about the small in

Ordered Pairs: Sign Changes & Reflections
This 20-slide PowerPoint presentation tests and develops three rules involving reflections resulting from sign changes in an ordered pair. The three rules involve changing the x-coordinate sign only, changing the y-coordinate sign only, and changing both coordinate's signs. Thus the result is reflection across the y-axis, reflection across the x-axis, and reflection across the origin, respectively. Students are expected to have previous knowledge of plotting & identifying ordered pairs, iden

Explaining in words what the statement of inequality means is the 2nd step. The 3rd step is to interpret the relative position of each number on a number line (both horizontal & vertical number lines are used). Positive & negative numbers are both used in examples.

The Coordinate Plane: Points in Two Dimensions
This 22-slide PowerPoint presentation serves as an introduction to the coordinate plane. It begins by defining a coordinate plane and explaining its uses. Then construction of the plane, its parts, and terminology are covered. The rest of the presentation explains and simulates how to plot ordered pairs and how to determine ordered pairs for points already plotted. Fractional values and coordinates of zero are included in the simulation as well. The content is based on Common Core standard CCSS.
