Looking for a worksheet for students to complete while watching the documentary "Kiss the Ground"? This is perfect for sub plans and days where student do not have devices, like the end of the year! It features 18 short answers questions and the key. Directions on how to get the movie for free for teachers are also included!

Movie info: "Kiss the Ground" is a documentary that explores the importance of healthy soil for the planet. The film explains how modern agricultural practices have led to soil degradation and environmental issues such as climate change. Most students know very little about the soil even though they interact with it directly or indirectly every day. This activity is perfect for Earth Day or sub plans if your sub has access to the computer (or your favorite partner teacher can set it up for them!)

Thank you for checking out my product! This makes a great review activity or for a sub plan!  It has three parts to it.  The first is an abiotic / biotic sort where the students drag each factor to the correct box.  The second is primary and secondary circles with scenarios presented and the students have to cut and paste the scenario in the correct circle.  The third is pioneer species.  There are six pictures, and the students have to move the correct pictures into the pioneer species rectangle.

This is a google slide so you could embed into a canvas assignment and each student could do it and then submit it.  It could be shared and then each student would have to make a copy in order to work in it then submit their own copy.

Use this zero prep worksheet to engage your students and give practice on identifying the types of renewable energy sources. Students will answer 13 questions on the concept. Students will select words from a drop down menu so no need to worry about spelling! Correct answers will turn the box green and populate pixels in the box.

This resource is great for:

Stations, choice boards, independent review, or early finishers!

To do these activities, you will share the included Google Sheet with your students via Google Classroom. A video has been added for this preview! A short clip that demonstrates that pixels appear as answers are correct and boxes change to green when answers are correct.

Benefits of this resource:

• Distance learning and in-person classroom friendly!
• NO PREP - Assign and go!
• Auto-graded
