This is a sixth-grade student science experience tied to SEEd standard 6.1.1. In this experience students explore why the Moon looks different throughout the month.
These experiences were designed to support students in engaging in science investigations with siblings and/or parents at home and then report back about what was discovered. They were created in a way that is easily adaptable for both online and printed formats. They are formatted to help students wonder about and investigate the science phenomena happening in the world around them. These experiences do not describe how students should write up and return work to their teacher. It is up to each teacher to adapt them to best meet student needs. When individualized by the teacher, a student could be asked to engage in one or more of these experiences a week and report back. This format aligns closely to the vision and expectation of the SEEd standards.

This is a sixth-grade student science experience tied to SEEd standard 6.2.2. In this experience students investigate the effects of heat energy on density of matter.

This resource is a YouTube playlist with videos to accompany the Camp C.O.R.E. graphic novel from the Modern Water Cycle collection by BYU and the USGS. The novel takes students through a scientific adventure in ecosystem science and includes chapters about the water cycle, biodiversity, pollution, permafrost, and climate change. Humans are a critical part of the global ecosystem and impact many aspects of it through our lifestyles. Each chapter covers an area where recent research has highlighted our influence and potential consequences of the status quo. We wrote this novel as a fun way to introduce this information to a younger audience in a more friendly format. The videos are another way to access the content of the novel. To download a copy of the novel itself, search "Camp C.O.R.E. graphic novel" in eMedia or visit the BYU Modern Water Cycle website.
