Survival Journal - 6th Grade Science End of Year Project

by Danielle Mortimore

Looking for a end of the year self-paced lesson for students to work on during those weird schedule days after testing? This lesson uses critical and creative thinking to create a story about surviving on a deserted island using what they have learned in science! It includes....

  • All directions for students and teachers
  • Google slides to go through with students
  • Chance cards to print out
  • Pacing guide
  • Teacher and student tips
  • Student packet with all the information they need
  • Rubric for student AND teacher

This project is great for the end of the year. That weird time between end of course tests and the school year end is challenging. The project is mostly self-paced and great for those days that you only see some classes throughout the day.

Minimum materials are needed!

  • 11x7 paper
  • lined
  • paper
  • the packet
  • yarn

Student will make a map, complete a packet, and write some journal entries on how they would survive if they were stranded on a deserted island.


Tennessee State Standards

  • 6.PS3.1 - Analyze the properties and compare the sources of kinetic, elastic potential, gravitational potential, electric potential, chemical, and thermal energy.
  • 6.LS2.4 - Using evidence from climate data, draw conclusions about the patterns of abiotic and biotic factors in different biomes, specifically the tundra, taiga, deciduous forest, desert, grasslands, rainforest, marine, and freshwater ecosystems
  • 6.ESS2.5 - Analyze and interpret data from weather conditions, weather maps, satellites, and radar to predict probable local weather patterns and conditions.
  • 6.ESS3.2 - Investigate and compare existing and developing technologies that will utilize renewable and alternative energy sources.

NGSS - Middle School

  • MS-LS2-1: Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem
  • MS-PS1-4: Develop a model that predicts and describes changes in particle motion, temperature, and state of a pure substance when thermal energy is added or removed.
  • MS-ESS2-5: Collect data to provide evidence for how the motions and complex interactions of air masses results in changes in weather conditions.
