Looking for a way to get your students LESS focused on Googling the answer and MORE focused on thinking like a scientist? Are you struggling to integrate the NGSS Science and Engineering Practices in your daily lessons? If you answered yes to either of those questions, then this science warm-ups and bell ringers resource is for you!
These bell ringer activities are designed to familiarize your students with models! What they are, what they’re used for, and their limitations. Every Monday, students will be presented with a new model showing a scientific concept or phenomena. After studying the model, they will

The purpose of these activities is not to have a full understanding of every concept presented, but rather to see what students can explain using the model. The questions that accompany the models are designed to be thought provoking and require students to predict, reflect, connect, and think critically about the concepts being presented.
This resource can be used by classroom teachers, tutors, and parents of students in grades 6-12.
