Here is a combined packet of my popular "Life Cycle of a Star" sequencing worksheet, and "Life Cycle of a Star" vocabulary cards. Buy both together and receive an immediate discount! Here are the original descriptions of each: Sequencing Worksheet When I began teaching my Space Unit for Grade 1, I could not find any activities that depicted the star life cycle. We were trying to make connections to previous life cycles we had learned (butterfly, plant). This is a great activity to do with Early Childhood students. This depicts 5 stages of the Star Life Cycle: 1. Stellar Nebula (creation/birth of a star by gases being pulled together). 2. Average Star (when a star is burning brightest and appears yellow). 3. Red Giant (the star is burning off lots of gas, emitting heat so it appears red). 4. Planetary Nebular (gases are escaping the star and it starts getting smaller). 5. White Dwarf (the last phase before a star dies and it grows very small before losing all of its gas). My second language learners loved acting out the start life cycle as well: Pushing hands together and packing them as if they are squeezing the gas together (Stellar Nebula) Putting their hands by their faces with big eyes and smile to "shine" brightly (Average Star) Arms out to their sides and stomping their feet like a giant would (Red Giant) Arms pulling apart from their bodies to simulate the gas leaking out (Planetary Nebula) Shrinking down to the floor to get really small (White Dwarf) I have also included a student sample to help illustrate the different phases. Vocabulary Cards: It has been so popular that I decided to create some vocabulary cards to support this resource. Each card includes the name of the stage in the life cycle, a hand drawn image, as well as a description of what is happening to the star during that particular stage. Print and laminate for durability. Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

This is a great hands on unit for 4-5 students that is aligned with ELA & Math CCSS, and Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering & Design. In groups students will read informational text about the evolution of clothing to then design and create a futuristic and functional clothing item based on the measurements of one group member. The clothing must be made only from the provided materials, must be able to carry food (snacks), must be wearable and fit the measurements of the selected group member, and be submitted for a weight evaluation. Students also have the option of creating an advertisement for the finished clothing item, which can be completed as a clothing commercial with technology or presented on a poster. ***Please note additional materials are needed for this activity*** Variety of Ziploc bags (small, medium, large), rolls of tape, snack items (pretzels, Goldfish, crackers, etc...), futuristic decorations (tapes, stickers, etc...) and a luggage weighing scale Standards: 4.MD.A.2, 5.MD.C.5, 4.NBT.B.4, 5.NBT.B.5, RI.4.10, RI.5.10, W.4.1, W.4.3, W.5.1, W.5.3, SL.4.1, SL.5.1 This packet includes: Cover Page Introduction and Objective Page 3 pages of ELA, Math and Next Generation Science Standards for 3-5 Lesson Procedures Student self assessment Teacher Sample of Finished Product (NOT FOR STUDENTS) Clothing Evolution Informational Text Designing Clothing Lesson Directions for students Designing Clothing Brainstorming Page Designing Clothing Measurement Recording Sheet Designing Clothing Current Functional Clothing Samples Designing Clothing Student Checklist Designing Clothing Measurement Explanation Designing Clothing Commercial Worksheet Designing Clothing Budget Sheet Designing Clothing Display Banner Designing Clothing Weight Check Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

This is a great hands on unit for K-2 students that is aligned with ELA CCSS, and Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering & Design. Students will read "Jack and the Beanstalk", and discuss what happened to the Jack and the beans. Then they will work in small groups to use growing materials to conduct an experiment on different growing conditions. After the experiment (which should take 20 days), students will use what they know about growing conditions of plants to write a letter to Jack, advising him on the best way to grow his "magic beans". ***Please note additional materials are needed for this activity*** Soil, cups, dry cannelini beans Standards Covered: K.MD.A.1, 1.MD.A.2, 2.MD.A.1, W.K.2, W.1.3, W.2.7, SL.K.1, SL.1.1, SL.2.1 This packet includes: Cover Page Introduction and Set up Page 3 pages of ELA, Math and Next Generation Science Standards for K-2 Lesson Procedure Growing Beanstalks Differentiated Growth Log Book Growing Beanstalks Differentiated Writing Extension Growing Beanstalks Explanation page Growing Beanstalks Technology Extension Growing Beanstalks Home Science Extension Growing Beanstalks Banner for classroom display Please make sure to rate and leave feedback!

This is a 4 page booklet designed around a lesson about keeping teeth clean. Students will make a statement about what will happen to teeth when we don't clean them, and will write a question about the experiment. Then students will each take an egg and coat it with a mixture of crushed cereal and milk or water. The mixture needs to be quite sticky so that it creates a coating on the egg shell. The crushed cereal mixture is to simulate "chewed food" while the egg represents a tooth. Once the egg is coated, students place the egg in a cup or bowl and leave it to dry. This may take about 3-5 days depending on the room temperature, so it is best to start this experiment at the beginning of the week. On the final day, students examine their eggs, and feel what happened to the food (it should have solidified). They then take a toothbrush and try to brush as much of the food off as possible. This should be quite challenging and may require excess force. If some students are too rough, the egg will break, which can simulate tooth decay in real life. Students then complete the rest of the experiment booklet.

This is my "Testing Ramps" experiment, which allows students to test different surface materials for a ramp: Legos, paper, and sandpaper. We did this experiment to determine what was the best material to use for a surface for cars in our model of our community we made. Students will complete the first side of the activity together before the experiment, then do the experiment, and finally will write about their conclusions. The recording sheet follows the scientific method/process skills when conducting an experiment. Step One: Make Guesses Step Two: Determine if the test is fair Step Three: Experiment Step Four: Draw the experiment Step Five: Discuss findings Step Six: Suggest an alternative material for a surface

This is a set of 26 cards featuring a food item and the number of calories that item has. Students can search around the classroom on a scavenger hunt for the different food items and discover how many calories each has. Perfect for getting students to start to recognize that foods they eat on a daily basis have different amounts of calories inside them.

This is an engaging way of getting students to think about what items they see everyday use electricity to create energy. Simply print, laminate, and cut out the cards, place them around the room, and instruct students to search for the items and identify what type of energy that item produces from electricity. This could also be used in a science center. This pack includes: 12 scavenger hunt cards 1 master recording sheet PLEASE NOTE: some cards may have more than one answer, such as the computer, TV, iPad and iPod, they give produce light and sound energy. Make sure to check out some of my other scavenger hunts in my store, as well as my other TPT items! Thanks!
