Objectives
Explain why volcanoes usually form near plate boundaries
Classify types of volcanoes
Describe the relationship between hot spots in the crust and volcanic island changes
This is a fun lesson for students to learn the dynamic nature of our earth. They will be amazed to discover how many active volcanoes are present in the world today
This challenge will help students to discover the relationship between volcanic eruptions and tectonic plate boundaries. Each student will research their own volcano and prepare a report and PowerPoint presentation.
Your students will discover that volcanic activity occurs as a result of the building up of enormous pressure at plate boundaries.
**Objective **
Celebrate Women’s History Month with this presentation highlighting some of the greatest minds in math and science. Students will learn about female biologists, botanists, chemists, and more who have made an impact on the world of STEM.
Great Resource to decorate your room
This presentation includes a Gallery Walk activity on the first slide and provides ample options for extension, including:
• Create a Facebook profile for one of the women featured in the slideshow. This is great for a science project. Students get assigned a famous scientist. Then they will fill out the Facebook profile as that scientist to include specific criteria instructed by the teacher.
• Compare and contrast the characteristics of two of the profiled women using a Venn diagram. Students will list the common factors between the two scientists
Some The famous female scientists referenced in this activity are listed below
• Sylvia Earle
• Vera Rubin
• Jin Teng
• Alice Hamilton
Here is a great product to celebrate Women’s history month with this PowerPoint highlighting some of the brightest minds in science.

PS2. Motion and Stability: Forces and Interactions
HS-PS2-1. Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion is a mathematical model describing change in motion (the acceleration) of objects when acted on by a net force.
HS-PS2-2. Use mathematical representations to show that the total momentum of a system of interacting objects is conserved when there is no net force on the system.
