In this lesson, students will use evidence they have already analyzed from aerial images, data, graphs, and articles, to engage in an argument about the cause and effect of water use on the lake’s ecosystem.
In this lesson, students will obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on the patterns of water use in Utah and the potential effects of using "too much" water.
In this lesson, students will interpret data from aerial images of the lake to obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on what is happening to the Great Salt Lake.
In this lesson, students will explore what is being done to address the problems facing the Great Salt Lake by looking at the example of the Great Salt Lake Collaborative.
This is a list of potential ideas based off a specific technology. None of these ideas are fully developed lessons. Please make changes and adaptations as necessary for the students in your class.
In this lesson, students will obtain and evaluate information on the relationship between salinity and lake elevation, using evidence from a graph.
In this lesson, students will obtain and evaluate information on wetland system components in order to communicate patterns in wetland system components.
In this lesson, students will communicate information about their local watershed systems and how they function to move water through areas to different bodies of water.
In this lesson, students will explore the cycling of matter and flow of energy through the Great Salt Lake ecosystem.
In this lesson, students will create an article that uses evidence from the data they have analyzed throughout this program to design solutions that address what is happening to the lake.
This is a lesson plan can be used to add technology to your classroom. Students will creae an Narrative autobiography in both a media form and a 5 paragraph essay.
This lesson will teach students to write a biography and allow them to use technology to create a flyer using the Pages app on their ipads.
The goals of OpenSciEd are to ensure any science teacher, anywhere, can access and download freely available, high quality, locally adaptable full-course materials. REMOTE LEARNING GUIDE FOR THIS UNIT NOW AVAILABLE!
This unit on weather, climate, and water cycling is broken into four separate lesson sets. In the first two lesson sets, students explain small-scale storms. In the third and fourth lesson sets, students explain mesoscale weather systems and climate-level patterns of precipitation. Each of these two parts of the unit is grounded in a different anchoring phenomenon.
Our new Kindness in the Classroom® curriculum is a Tier 1 evidenced-based social emotional learning curriculum designed to help schools create a culture of kindness. Each unit teaches six core kindness concepts: Respect, Caring, Inclusiveness, Integrity, Responsibility, and Courage.
This Lesson plan uses 6 primary sources to teach students about the American Civil War and its impact on American Society.

This is a potential lesson plan derived from a summer camp activity. It was based off a specific technology. Please make changes and adaptations as necessary for the students in your class.
To pique students’ curiosity and anchor the learning for the unit in the visible and concrete, students start with an experience of observing and analyzing a bath bomb as it fizzes and eventually disappears in the water. Their observations and questions about what is going on drive learning that digs into a series of related phenomena as students iterate and improve their models depicting what happens during chemical reactions. By the end of the unit, students have a firm grasp on how to model simple molecules, know what to look for to determine if chemical reactions have occurred, and apply their knowledge to chemical reactions to show how mass is conserved when atoms are rearranged.
