3 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 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. Page 3 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

4 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.

5 Fifths Foldable Step 1: Fold paper in half lengthwise leaving just enough for a title tab if you so desire. Page 5 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!

6 Nature of Energy Foldable Cut-Outs Directions: Cut out the following and match the pictures with their correct term. Glue them onto your foldable and write definition inside foldable flap. Page 6 Kinetic Energy Gravitational Potential Energy Potential Energy Chemical Potential Energy Elastic Potential Energy

The amount of kinetic energy a moving object has depends on its and its. 8. The sun gives off what two forms of energy?

8 Section 2: Conservation of Energy Page 8 Instructions: Students will show off their artistic ability by creating a filmstrip illustrating conservation of energy. The filmstrip will be able to slide behind the television (although a little dated) so they can see their drawings on the big screen. The following contains a television and filmstrip cut-out along with a mini-quiz.

9 Do Not Glue between lines Do Not Glue between lines Page 9 Cut out Directions: 1. Cut out the television along with the center square in order to view film. 2. Glue television into your interactive notebook taking care not to glue sides down since this is where film strip will slide through. 3. After coloring illustrations on filmstrip, cut out filmstrip and slide behind television to see your illustration on the big screen! 4. Write explanation in Science Interactive Notebook explaining your filmstrip and make sure you share how energy changed form.

10 PULL Conservation of Energy PULL FILMSTRIP: Law of Conservation of Energy Directions: 1. Illustrate a scene that represents an example of the Law of Conservation of Energy. Make sure drawings are horizontal. Page 10

11 Name Date Quiz: Conservation of Energy 1. An electric blanket warms you on a cold evening. How did energy change form? Page A pile of logs is burned for a campfire. How did energy change form? 3. Your car seat is hot after sitting outside in the sun all day. How did energy change form? 4. You eat an orange during half-time during a soccer game. How did energy change?

12 Section 3: Work Page 12 Instructions: For this page in the Science Interactive Notebook, students will be constructing a Work Formula Triangle Foldable in which they will use to help calculate work word problems. Included for this section are directions on how to make the Formula Triangle Foldable, work calculations and of course a mini quiz. Graphics License #

13 Formula Triangle Foldable Page 13 Step 1: Cut out circle. Step 2: Find center and lightly mark for reference. Step 3: Pick any edge on circle and fold towards center of circle make a crease. Step 4: Pick opposite edge of paper and fold towards center overlapping edges and forming a cone shape crease edge. Step 5: Fold the final edge down towards center forming an equilateral triangle. Glue into Scientific Interactive Notebook and fill in definitions.

14 Practice Problems: Work Directions: Cut and paste the following work calculations into your Science Interactive Notebook. Use your Formula Triangle Foldable to complete the following word problems. Page A mule pulls of cart of milk 10 meters with a force of 50 newtons. Calculate the work done by the mule. 2. A box is pushed 40 meters by a mover. The amount of work done was 2,240 joules. How much force was exerted on the box? 3. How much work is done on a pumpkin with a force of 16 newtons when you lift it 1.5 meters? 4. What distance did the boulder with a force of 24 newtons travel if 240 joules of work was done on it? 5. Mark pushed his stalled car with a force of 9000 newtons but was unable to move it. How much work did Mark do?

15 Name Date Quiz: Work 1. A watermelon weighing 1.0 newton is lifted 2 meters. How much work is done? Page It took 50 joules to push a shopping cart 5 meters. With what force was the shopping cart pushed? 3. A force of 100 newtons was necessary to lift a tree. A total of 150 joules of work was done. How far was the tree lifted? 4.

16 Section 4: Using Machines Page 16 Instructions: Students will make a Tri-fold Pocket Foldable in which they will categorize a list of twelve machines into ways machines make work easier. Students will cut out pictures of machines and place them in correct folder of the foldable. All graphics and labels are included for foldable, however students will need to give explanation of how machines make work easier and write on each folder. (I glued pictures on colored paper to make prettier cards.) Along with graphics, directions for the Tri-fold Pocket Foldable are included and a mini-quiz.

17 Tri-fold Pocket Foldable Step 1: With paper horizontal, fold bottom edge up so that one-third of paper is showing. Page 17 Step 2: Fold paper into thirds, creasing edges well. Step 3: Unfold and glue outside edges of first fold to form three pockets.

18 Making Work Easier Cards Directions: Cut out following cards and place in corresponding pocket of Tri-fold Pocket Foldable once you determine if machine makes work easier by increasing force, increasing distance or changing direction of force. Page 18

21 Section 5: Simple Machines Page 21 Instructions Students will make a Six-door Foldable to showcase the six simple machines. On the inside of each flap students will need to give name and definition of simple machine. When all doors are open, students will need to find three examples of compound machines and paste inside foldable. I ve included all graphics for your master Science Interactive Notebook, but I suggest you have students find their own pictures for at least the compound machine to make sure they understand concept. Included for this section are directions to make the Six-Door Foldable, graphics and labels of simple machines and a mini-quiz.

22 Six-Door Foldable Step 1: With paper horizontal, fold paper into a shutter fold with outside edges meeting in the middle. Page 22 Step 2: Fold paper into thirds, creasing edges well. Step 3: Unfold and cut along folds to make six doors. Step 4: Add all graphics and definitions then paste into your Science Interactive Notebook.

23 Simple Machines Compound Machines Directions: Cut out all graphics and paste to the front of your Six-door Foldable. Add labels and definitions on the back side of each door then find three examples of compound machines to paste in center of foldable. Page 23 Wheel and Axle Lever Inclined Plane Wedge Pulley Screw
