Matter and Energy - Atomic Structure
Using interactive exercises, students will describe the structure of atoms and the locations of particles with in the atom.
Gravity
Using interactives, students will demonstrate that gravity is the force that governs the motion of our solar system.
Light Years
Students will identify how light years are used to measure distances and sizes of components of the universe.
Newton's Law of Inertia
This resource provides instructional resources for Newton's First Law, the law of inertia.
Newton's Law of Action-Reaction
This resource is to support TEKS (8)(6)(C), specifically the Newton's third law or the law of action-reaction.
Introduction to Plate Tectonics
This resource is intended to use for Tier I classroom instruction.
Human Impact
This resource can be used, in conjunction with best practices, for Tier I classroom instruction.
Introducing the Atom
A resource to be used for Tier I instruction for the introduction of the structure of atoms.
How Global Patterns of Atmospheric Movement Influence Local Weather
Students will identify how global patterns of atmospheric movement influence local weather.
Oceans and Weather Systems
Students will identify the role of the oceans in the formation of weather systems such as hurricanes.
Organisms and Environments - Organisms Interactions
Students will describe producer/consumer, predator/prey, and parasite/host relationships as they occur in food webs.
Organisms and Environments - Humans and Ocean Systems
Students will identify how humans depend on ocean systems and explain how human activities such as runoff, artificial reefs, or use of resources have modified these systems.
Potential and Kinetic Energy
This resource provides Tier I instruction ideas for Grade 6+ science teachers in the area of potential and kinetic energy.
Covalent Bonding: Electron Dot Diagrams
Given descriptions, diagrams, scenarios, or chemical symbols, students will model covalent bonds using electron dot formula (Lewis structures).
Plate Boundaries
Tier I resource for teaching about what happens at plate boundaries.
Moon Phases
Tier I resource for instruction on the lunar phases.
Matter and Energy—Chemical Reactions
Given descriptions or illustrations, students will investigate how evidence of chemical reactions indicates that new substances with different properties are formed.
The Moon—Lunar Cycle and Tides
Given models and illustrations, students will identify, demonstrate, and predict the sequence of events in the lunar cycle and relate the position of the moon and sun to their effect on ocean tides.
Introduction to Section 11
This resources introduces the 16 lessons in Section 11 of the Career and Technical Education Work-Based Learning course. Each lesson in this section describes one of the federally recognized career clusters.
Lesson 11.1: Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources
This resource describes the scope of the Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources (AFNR) Career Cluster in terms of career pathways, practicum courses, work-based learning (WBL) experiences, prerequisites, safety and occupational training, and curriculum resources.
