Students probably won’t know what energy looks like. They may think that light can’t move through objects. They may have never thought about vibration creating sound.

I needed a fun activity for when I needed to be out one day. I found this to go along with our science unit we were working on. The students and guest teacher both reported how much fun the class had with this activity. I highly recommend this product and look forward to using activities like this when I need to be out again. Very engaging and easy planning. (Originally shared on my TpT store.)

My students enjoyed using this resource during this learning curriculum. It was fun and the students were engaged in the resource. I adapted it a bit for my SLL students and skip some of the things that I felt would be more of a challenge to them. (Originally shared on my TpT store.)

I used this in my special education class with my nonverbal/emerging readers. It was a great resource and easy to use. My students loved this resource. The visuals provided saved me time on making any additional modifications. (Originally shared on my TpT store.)
