Momentum | Science Article #109 | Reading / Literacy | Physics Resource
Momentum describes mass and velocity combining to describe how hard it is to stop an object. Momentum is all around us, pretty much when anything moves it has momentum, when something is being stopped momentum helps understand how much energy that will take and it even relates to light shining on an object as even light has momentum. So momentum is worth learning a little bit about, let’s check it out with this resource.

Comets | Science Research Project + Article #2 | Astronomy / Astrophysics
Comets are icy balls of rock, dirt and cosmic ice that float through the cosmos. These dirty snowballs of space orbit the Sun and go far out in our Solar system. Learning about them makes for a cool two-tailed adventure, so with that in mind, let’s use this resource to learn about this topic!
The research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.
Each research project template includes:
Space for a one paragraph summary (that links to the 2 page science article also available on this topic - but does not have to).
Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats.
5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words (which also links to the science article also available)
3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer.
Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
Further, I have added a 1 page - 20 point rubric to be used for either self-assessment or teacher assessment as you deem fit. I hope it helps support the learning even further!
The template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.

Massive Stars | Science Research Project Template #1 | Astronomy / Astrophysics
Massive stars are the lifeblood of galaxies, they are the brightest parts of our Milky way and while not always blue, they are always huge if they are indeed massive main-sequence stars. From supernova to the leftover cores of stars such as neutron stars, there is a lot to learn about massive stars and this resource has got you covered on that front! Let’s learn about it together.
This research project template provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is an project template with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.
Each research project template includes space for a one paragraph summary (that may or may not link to the 2 page science article also available on this topic). Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. Further there are 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words and 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
This template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.
