Studying crystals is crucial as it reveals their unique structures and properties, impacting technology and materials science. Understanding crystals helps in developing advanced materials, improving technologies like semiconductors, and enhancing industries such as jewelry. This knowledge also benefits fields like geology and materials science, driving innovations and practical applications in everyday life. Let’s engage with an excellent teaching resource on that topic!

This research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.

Each research project template includes space for a one paragraph summary (that may or may not link to the 2 page science article also available on this topic). Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. Further there are 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words and 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.

This template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.

Volcanoes | Science Research Project + Article #50 | Earth Science | Geology

Studying and understanding volcanoes is both captivating and essential as it provides insights into Earth's internal processes and the dynamic forces shaping our planet. Volcanoes play a key role in forming landscapes, influencing climate, and creating fertile soils through the release of minerals. Understanding volcanic activity helps predict eruptions, mitigate hazards, and protect communities from disasters. Additionally, this knowledge informs scientific research on tectonics, geothermal energy, and planetary geology, offering valuable perspectives on both Earth and other celestial bodies.
