How many times do you just suffer through it? Too many right? But every once in a while something comes up where you don’t even have a choice. So for those days, we pulled together a list of things that you can leave with your students. These are activities and graphic organizers that wouldn’t need tons of instruction from you — especially if they’re things you’ve done with them before. And bonus! These won’t need much prep. Several are just print + go activities.
- Explore a Scientist: This graphic organizer is a great way to let your students learn about the life of a scientist. You can have them all research the same one or allow them to select one individually. Either way, all your students need is a computer, iPad, or encyclopedia and the worksheet. Plus, you can feel confident that they’re getting some practice with writing.
- Valuable Vocabulary: When you’re not around, one of the best things your students can do is practice with on-going terminology. This will allow them additional methods for review.
- Careers in Science series: Help your students dive into professional options for scientists. One important thing you can do for your students, is to show them a variety of career options that use different types of science. This series includes the job description of a sports nutritionist, a meteorologist, a forensic scientist, and a veterinarian. Your students will need access to the internet to complete the graphic organizer.
- Cell Theory: Whether you’re currently studying cell theory or you just want your students to have a greater appreciation for the way the microscope changed science, this graphic organizer is a great way to make it happen.
- Movies: Let’s face it — sometimes there’s just nothing better for your students to do while you’re gone than watch a movie. But these movies all have different aspects of science that are covered. And your students will enjoy them! Read through the list and check out the best ones for your crew.
