Basic Principles Activities (by rating)

Hands on crosscutting concept of patterns:

Before our study of electromagnetic waves, I use this activity to remind students how to find patterns where there are not obvious repeating patterns. This skills is important across all levels of science.

Students are given three sets of items which they then observe. Through observation, students will classify their data. Once this data is classified with a chart students will evaluate patterns through the data.

A quick full class activity is completed before beginning this group activity. This models for the students the approach to finding and evaluating these patterns.

This activity aligns with Indiana Science Standard MS-PS4-1, CC.1.

What's included:

• Teacher instructions.
• Example worksheet.
• Activity worksheets (three versions).
• Pictures of example.

How is this activity useful:

• Helps introduce or practice a tricky concept.
• Simple set up.
• Hands on, group activity keeps students engaged.
• Students like finding unusual connections.

This interactive and comprehensive resource helps students master essential EMT and paramedic terminology while reinforcing the importance of accurate documentation in emergency medical services. Through engaging 911 call scenarios, students will practice filling out critical EMS paperwork, such as Patient Care Reports (PCR), Refusal of Care Forms, and Incident Timeline Forms. By using realistic 911 scenarios, students will gain practical experience in documenting patient care, vital signs, and treatment interventions.

What’s Included:

• Vocabulary Terms & Definitions: A list of essential EMS-related vocabulary words (e.g., "Airway Obstruction," "CPR"), complete with definitions.
• Sentence Creation & Drawing: Students will use each term in a sentence and create a drawing to visually reinforce the meaning of each word.
• 6 Realistic 911 Scenarios: Students are presented with six detailed 911 call scenarios that reflect real-life situations such as cardiac arrests, trauma, and patient refusals.
• Critical EMS Paperwork: After reviewing the scenarios, students will complete Patient Care Reports (PCR), Refusal of Care Forms, and Incident Timeline Forms based on the provided information.
• Critical Thinking Questions: After completing the paperwork, students will answer reflection questions on the importance of accurate documentation and the role of EMTs and paramedics in patient care.

Why This Resource Is Valuable:

• Real-World Application: Students will learn how EMS professionals use specific terminology and complete essential paperwork in real-life emergencies.
• Hands-On Learning: Combining writing, drawing, and critical thinking, this activity is designed to engage students and help them retain key vocabulary and concepts.
• Essential Documentation Skills: Students will develop the ability to complete crucial forms like the PCR, which are vital in patient care and legal protection for EMS providers.
• Collaboration & Teamwork: Designed for group or partner work, this resource fosters teamwork and encourages students to discuss, analyze, and complete the necessary forms together.

Perfect For:

• High School Health Science Classes
• EMT & Paramedic Training Programs
• Health Occupations Pathways

Help your students bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world EMS practice with this engaging, hands-on activity! This resource is an excellent way to teach essential vocabulary, documentation skills, and teamwork—all necessary for future healthcare careers.

FOUR "mini" labs -or shortened activities- to reinforce or introduce concepts to students. I call these activities “mini labs” because they are simple activities that do not take the whole class period. They are also activities that are safe for use in the classroom and do not have to be done in a lab or with any specialty equipment or materials. I often use these demonstrations to lead into new content, that way as we cover material I can refer back to the things that my students have experienced first hand.

This particular lab focuses on introducing the following concepts:

Matter Takes Up Space

Two Substances Form a Mixture

Density and Volume

Change of State

(Indirectly the Properties of Matter)

Includes: teacher information, materials list, procedures, helpful tips for facilitating the activities and student handouts/lab sheets

Materials needed for these Mini Labs:

Balloons, Cups, Water, Sugar, Clay, Small Bowls, Paper Towels, Stopwatch, Chocolate Coated Candies

This scientific method can be used for any grade! It helps students work through a note taking process and practice putting the scientific method in order for the steps and through examples. Students can also create their own experiment to practice putting the steps in order!

This is great for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners! After this, students can create and practice these steps through an experiment!

What's included:

• Guided Notes
• Vocabulary Words with visuals, definitions, and vocabulary
• Scientific Method Practice
• Scientific Method Review
• Experiment Creator Steps
• Answer Key

In this product, students will learn about thermal energy. In the beginning of the product, matter is reviewed and how matter can be seen in three different forms - solid, liquid, and gas. Students will then review how matter changes. Thermal energy will be introduced in this product. Students will then discuss the meaning of thermal energy, how heat flows from warmer to colder objects and examples will be provided. Students will then be provided with visual examples to help them understand this process. Students will be provided with thermal energy examples and how heat moves. Students will learn there there are different forms of energy such as light, electrical, mechanical, sound, and chemical, and will learn how all of those forms change to thermal energy. Examples along with pictures are provided. Students will also learn the many ways thermal energy is used throughout out day to day life that we don't think about. Throughout the product, students will be asked comprehension questions that include short answer and multiple choice to ensure comprehension.

Need an activity that is engaging, hands on, requires critical thinking and peer collaboration? THIS IS IT! This is a great lab that utilizes all of these and would be great for an observation! This lab will walk through the scientific method steps, research and analyze the properties of water and other liquids. Students can see how the molecules of each liquid will react with substances. Once the experiment is completed and the students have their results, they collaborate with two other groups and record their results to compare. This eliminates having to do the experiment more than once, although I do emphasize that in an experiment, results need to be able to be repeated for it to be considered proven.

This can be used as an introductory lab for water properties for older students.

Recording sheets for your students to use while they are using microscopes to make observations. One set of sheets has spaces for your students to draw a picture that they see with the microscope. This is available with and without directions (Preview pages 1 and 2) The other set of sheets has space for your students to draw what the specimen looks like with just their eyes and using the microscope to compare the differences.

• This common science misconceptions activity is a great way to start your science year!

• The idea is that science always searches for the truth. Just because most people believe something, or for our whole lives we thought something was true doesn’t necessarily mean it is.

• Students will learn to question everything.

• There is a poster that explains what a misconception is, six common misconceptions and the fact, and a tips and suggestions sheet for teachers. There is also a follow-up worksheet for students to write a misconception and the fact surrounding that misconception.
