Introduction

If you are new to the idea of using a Science Interactive Notebook in your classroom, stop by my Nitty Gritty Science shop and download my Intro to Science Interactive Notebooks tutorial for FREE! In there you will find tips Page | 3 on how to begin with your students, what materials to have on hand and, most importantly, how it will enhance your students learning through reflection and creativity.

Focused Lessons with Differentiated Instruction

The lessons shared on the following pages cover National Science Standards and meet students' needs. I have given you the notes that I would give my students (Right Side ? Input Side of Notebook) so you can understand what I'm having the students focus on when working on their creative assignments (Left Side ? Output Side of Notebook). Each lesson focuses on a Question of the Day (QOD) represented in red in the top margin of each "Input" page with student giving answer in red on "Output" page.

Left Side ? Output

Instructions for each Output Side are included. This includes cut-outs, foldables or master copies where applicable. You may find that students work slowly at first, but once groups are established and students know what is expected from them, not only will you see more energy focused on the final product, but you will be shocked at the level of creativity certain students have in certain areas ? talk about differentiation!

Mini-Assessments

Mini quizzes will be given for each section so you may monitor student's level of understanding. For reproduction purposes, there are two quizzes to a page so you can cut in half and save on some paper

Section 1: The Nature of Energy

Page | 4

Instructions:

Students will create a Fifths Foldable to showcase kinetic and potential energy. Each tab will need to have the definition of each term as well as a picture that correctly corresponds to vocab word. You can either have students find their own examples or use the ones I have included for you.

The following contains directions for the foldable, cut-outs for vocabulary, picture examples and a mini-quiz.

Fifths Foldable

Step 1: Fold paper in half lengthwise leaving just enough for a title tab if you so desire.

Step 2: Fold paper up so that one-third of paper is showing and two-thirds are covered.

Step 3: Fold the two-thirds section in half, then the one-third section in half. Now paper is in fifths!
