The solution to the before break middle school cra $The solution to the before break middle school craziness for science teachers. 🎄 Because you want to celebrate with your class a little but you also need to make sure you’re on pace with your curriculum and standards. You also don’t want to start a brand new unit before break… I created these stations for that purpose! You can review topics, hit those standards and still have a holiday theme! It’s a win-win if you ask me! The stations review topics such as: ✨heat transfer ✨interactions of matter ✨temperature ✨ light waves (reflection and refraction) ✨ life cycle of a Christmas tree ✨ ecology ✨ food webs, producers, consumers ✨ weather and Earth’s systems ✨ Earth’s layers ✨ the water cycle Comment “winter” to get the link to these stations! 🎅 . . #christmasscience #8thgradescience #7thgradescience #6thgradescience #earthspacescience #lifescience #physicalscience #scienceactivities #christmasclassroom #middleschoolscience #middleschoolscienceteacher$

You know I had to make marine science ornaments too! 🐠 🐙 🦈 🎄

This activity is perfect for a marine biology or science class!

There are 56 different marine organisms to choose from.

Students will:
✨classify their organism
✨research its habitat, diet and ecological impact
✨ decorate their ornament
✨ cut it out and hang it on the tree!

“Oh, ChemisTREE”🎄 When I tell you I bought

“Oh, ChemisTREE”🎄

When I tell you I bought a whole other artificial tree from Target during Black Friday just for this activity, I’m not lying.

This activity is a hit with my 8th grade physical science students during our matter unit.

Students each get an element ornament, research it, color it and then hang it on the tree when they are done.

Many even ask me if they can make more than 1!

Needless to say, my science teacher heart (and my class Christmas tree) are full 💖 🎄

This activity is quick, low prep and a fun way to add some holiday to decor to your classroom while keeping it aligned to standards!

Comment “element” to get the link to this ✨ freeeeebie✨ sent straight to your inbox!

I’d also love love love to see your class chemistrees if you do this activity!

I’ve done my element ornaments for years but when I started teaching life science, I knew those 7th graders would be upset if they were left out of the classroom holiday decorating.

So….

I bought another artificial Christmas tree and created these human body organ ornaments for them to make!

ORGANments, if you will.

Or does that sound completely awful?? 😅

Anyway, these will be a freebie at the end of the week! I’ll keep you posted! 🫀
