In this addition and comparing numbers math game, students will have an opportunity to reinforce their greater than, less than, and equal to fluency. This is a game where students will roll dice, write those numbers down, add them up, and then compare them to see who has the better shot to score a goal. Once they play 8 rounds they will add up their total wins and those of their partner and then compare the two numbers to see who won the game.

In this EdTech Earth Science activity, students will use Google Drawing to create an image that demonstrates the three main types of earthquake faults, Transverse, Normal, and Reverse. They will find 2 real images of each type of fault. They will draw arrows pointing in the direction that the forces, shear, compression, and tension are moving on each image. They will also find and add an actual diagram of each type of fault. Finally, students will label the hanging wall and footwall on each image except for the transverse/strike-slip.

In this Halloween version of bingo, teachers can call either the quotient or the equation. There are 30 cards where the teacher calls the quotient and students find a valid equation and 30 cards where the teacher calls the equation and students find an equal quotient.

The cards come with Halloween clip art that allows students to doodle or color in as well.

This activity is great for the days leading up to and on Halloween when students become very spooky themselves.

In this assignment, students will explore 25 features found in North and South America. They will circle, outline, and label specific locations on maps of North and South America. In the teacher instructions, you can also find a link to a Presentation that shows and discusses the geology and uniqueness of many of these locations.

In this earth science lab, students will flip M&Ms/Skittles to help them gain a better understanding as to what absolute dating is. Students will learn what radioactive elements are and how scientists use this understanding to give an age to rocks and fossils. Students will create a spreadsheet and create a graph that will visually demonstrate the half-life of Carbon 14. There are 6 word problems that they will analyze to help them understand how to use a half-life graph.

In this Google Drawing activity, students will create a concept map using the following words: Earth Science, geology, waves, currents, astronomy, oceanography, stars, volcanoes, planets, meteorology, fossils, weather, climate, rocks galaxies, thunderstorms, tides, tsunamis, lightning, comets, minerals, asteroids, tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes.

This is an interactive digital glacier lab that will help students understand what glaciers are, what some of the formations and deposits look like, and will have students explore how glaciers grow and shrink, and how scientists go about discovering glacial movement speeds over time as well as finding out how scientists come up with the numbers of how long glaciers will last at current rates. Students will actually be the scientists discovering the rate of speed as they build their own interactive glacier using PhET. You will need computers that can run Java.

Dirt Bike Comparing Fractions is a multiplayer math game that allows students from anywhere in the world to play tug of war with each other while practicing comparing fractions! Students can compete against each other.

This is a fun activity where students get a bowl of Fruit Loops and then count them up and sort them by color.  Then they have to compare the numbers of each color with each other.

Here is a website that has a sliding animation to demonstrate the size of cells and compares them to many other objects, including viruses, parts of cells, and bacteria.  This would be a great visual for your students when introducing the cell.
