From ÒWhat do you notice? What do you wonder?Ó (the essence of doing mathematics) to ÒHow many/much?Ó (where students choose what to count and how to count it), images are a playful space to abstract the world around us, consider other peopleÕs perspectives, and build community.Use these slides to create your own number talk images.

This lesson is designed to teach high school students about the trends found in the four main families (groups) on the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Halogens and Noble Gases. Students will work in groups of three to complete a family sketch for their assigned chemical family. They will go over the family members and trends/characteristics found within each family. They will create a "day in the life" description of their family along with sketching a family portrait.

Place Value and Decimals for 5th-grade resource/Special Education Students will fill in the gaps that exist with place value and number sense. We will access content from previous grades to vertically align with content knowledge at a 5th-grade level. This will cover the first 20 days of school and will align with the general education curriculum map.

Science Phenomena: HS Physical Science - Forces and Interactions - Asteroids have the potential to cause catastrophic loss of life on our planet upon impact. In 2013, the Chelyabinsk meteor injured 1500 people when it exploded over Russia. If researchers could identify potential asteroids early enough they could change their orbit to eliminate the threat to Earth. This phenomenon could be used to explore the motion of orbiting objects in the solar system or to gain a better understanding of gravitational forces and fields.

Science Phenomena: HS Physical Science - Chemical Reactions - This video shows a chemical reaction of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), calcium chloride (road salt), and an indicator phenol red. The chemicals react to form calcium carbonate, sodium chloride, and carbon dioxide gas. This changes the pH inside the bag resulting in a color change in the phenol red. As much air as possible should be removed from the bag as possible to show the production of the gas. This could be used as an example of chemical reaction that releases energy (exothermic). Since the bag is sealed it could be massed before and after to show the conservation of mass (atoms). This phenomenon was submitted by Brian Babulic.
