How does the blackbody spectrum of the sun compare to visible light? Learn about the blackbody spectrum of the sun, a light bulb, an oven, and the earth. Adjust the temperature to see the wavelength and intensity of the spectrum change. View the color of the peak of the spectral curve.

Students read news reports and first-person accounts to imagine what it would be like to be in a blackout in a large city. They follow news reports as if the event were unfolding in real-time and keep weblogs or journals of their experience as they imagine it, taking on different roles of people who live in the city or commute there to work. They use their journal accounts to create a play or screenplay that depicts what the August 2003 blackout was like for the people in the U.S. and Canada who experienced it. Although this activity is geared towards fifth-grade and older students, it could be easily adapted for younger students.

Budgeting is an important task for money managment. Using a spreadsheet can make this task much easier with tools that autocalculate totals. As well, the spreadsheet can be copied easily for each month or year. Categories can be easily tailored to the users' needs by adding items that are specifc to their financial situation.Budgets are used by non-profit groups, organizations, businesses, sports associations and volunteer groups for their cash flow management. Using a spreadsheet will make budgeting and decision making much easier and transparent for all users. Here is a variety of blank templates and examples that can be used for various budgeting purposes. 

The skills required to read a passage are listed in the top right corner of the passage. Words to preview and differentiation suggestions are also provided for the teacher.

Rockets need a lot of thrust to get into space. In this lesson, students learn how rocket thrust is generated with propellant. The two types of propellants are discussed and relation to their use on rockets is investigated. Students learn why engineers need to know the different properties of propellants.

3, 2, 1... Blast off! Students learn new vocabulary by taking a virtual field trip to the moon, read-alouds, creating a picture dictionary, and completing a final writing activity.

Students are introduced to our Sun as they explore its composition, what is happening inside it, its relationship to our planet (our energy source), and the ways engineers help us learn about it.

Over the past several years that I have taught Science 9, I always assigned a major
independent project to cover the outcomes in the Exploring Our Universe unit. Since this
unit is a favorite with my students, I began to integrate some instructional pieces above and
beyond their major projects, and ended up with a loose version of a blended learning unit.
Unlike the other units in Science 9, Exploring Our Universe lends itself well to blended
learning as the content can be easily comprehended by most students without lecture-style
teaching. Instead, students are provided with a range of instructional experiences, which
include small group work, computer-based learning, individual work areas, and teacherlead
small groups. Students have a choice for most activities, which means all the outcomes
will be covered, but the depth and areas of focus will vary from student to student. All
activities are self-pacing, and will receive either a formative or summative assessment
throughout the unit. As you will see, some activities work well as for both small group work
and individual work areas. We use Pearson Saskatchewan Science 9 as a textbook for this
unit

This tutorial will show you how to use UFLI's blending board with your students.

The UFLI Blending Board is a tool used in literacy instruction to help learners practice blending sounds together to form words. It typically consists of a surface with letters or letter combinations, allowing learners to visually and kinesthetically engage with the sounds and improve their reading skills.

Be sure to watch the tutorial to learn more about how to use the blending board if needed.

Students use a text set to increase understanding of content area material and demonstrate what they have learned by writing an original piece that blends together narrative and expository elements.

To prepare for literature circles featuring historical novels, students research the decades of the 1930s to the 1990s and share their information using Prezi, a web application for creating multimedia presentations.

"This is one of those rare games that reinforces both the skill of multiplication and the visual model that makes sense of it. Blockout can be played competitively or collaboratively, and is a wonderful game to introduce or reinforce the concepts behind multiplication."
