This resource helps to reinforce how caloric intake and exercise work together.
CALORIC REQUIREMENTS
Go to this website:

Read the article until you get to the “The Daily Calorie Requirements Calculator”

Enter in your information on the website so you can answer the questions in number 5.

Choose one of the following articles to read:
To Lose Fat: How Many Calories Should I Eat Per Day To Lose Weight & Lose Fat?
To Build Muscle: How Many Calories Do I Need To Eat Per Day To Build Muscle Or Gain Weight?
To Maintain Your Weight How Many Calories Are Needed To Maintain My Current Weight?

Answer the following questions about your article from step 4.  On a separate google doc answer the following questions completely and submit on Classroom.

        What is your estimated daily calorie maintenance level?
        What is your goal in regards to your weight? (Lose, Build, or Maintain) Why?
        What did you learn from reading this information? What did you find interesting?
        Do you feel you will be more conscious about your calorie intake/expenditure?

IF you use polar you can apply number 6
 
How many calories are you averaging during your workouts? Open up you polar go fit account to see the caloric expenditures.

This is a Wisconsin-based case study with data on how the size and distance of an island from the mainland can affect the number of different types of carnivores found on the island (Species Richness). Students are asked to graph data collected from the Apostle Islands and make a claim evidence and reasoning statement supported by data.

This is an activity/game regarding making and creating a system of Inequalities.  The students will also have to write a system of equations.

This is a great STEAM project from Instructables where the student will create a basic robotic hand from basic materials. I use this project to get the students to think of proper use of some tools, develop problem solving skills and prepare for their next build of a hydraulic arm.

A PowerPoint presentation that will guide students through the first steps and the Match Maker feature in Career Cruising.

This is a junior conference to help juniors feel ready and prepared for their senior year.

I used The Hungry Catepillar lesson from this link.

https://www.illustrativemathematics.org/content-standards/tasks/1150

However I did an extension off this lesson using this resource to allow teachers to work on the skills of addition, the precise language of tens and some extra ones, and seeing groups of ten.

This activity is a great way to include Language Arts along with Mathematics. Using The Very Hungry Catepillar, we used based-ten blocks to place onto a ten frames. Each time the catepillar eats something, we add to the ten frame. At the end of the story, we look at how much the catepillar has eaten. However, I took this activity a step further to continue strengthening the use of addition. Students and I then had a variety of situations at the end of the story where the catepillar ate 4 more leaves. The students then add four more, either in a group of 4 or counting out 4 individual items. We then look again at using our language of, "I have a 3 groups of ten and 4 extra ones."

Challenges with this lesson is making sure the students have added a cube onto their ten frame for each item they ate. As well, students would have to also understand how to use a ten frame before the start of the lesson. As well, if you are working to be precise with the language of tens and extra ones, you want to nudge your students to use this language. You will want to model this multiple times.

Students will simulate a jumping frog contest and collect data for frog distances jumped.  Students will measure three consecutive jumps along with the total distance jumped in centimeters.  Students will determine the range of classroom data jumps and find the mean and the median of jump data.

This online interactive website chalk full of games and simulations cover all of the following topics:
*Plasma membrane structure and function, roles of phospholipids, transport proteins (carrier and channel), cholesterol and carbohydrates, types of transport, diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, osmosis. 

This is a perfect tutorial/game based/simulation driven online resource for teaching, re-teaching, or reviewing the basics behind the plasma membrane and cell transport.

The lesson and activities teach students to recognize and explore bias and media stereotyping and be able to identify and analyze propaganda techniques in magazine and//or TV advertising.

The purpose of the word search is to provide a framework for chemical formulae review as well as creating awareness of differences between different naming methods for a variety of compounds.  As formulae names are discovered they can be discussed and then the actual symbolic representation made.

This is a lesson plan used as an introductory activity to Barbara Kingsolver's novel, The Bean Trees.  The lesson has students read and discuss (both in small groups and as a whole class) personal stories from survivors of child abuse focusing on what makes those stories powerful and how the abuse affected the survivors and continues to affect them today.  Furthermore, this lesson has students individually write and then discuss as a class about some of the other issues that are touched on in Kingsolver's novel (immigration, names, refugees, and teen pregnancy).

Throughout history, U.S. presidents have carved out their relationships with the press. In this lesson, students will hear from author and historian Harold Holzer as he discusses how several presidents, from George Washington to Donald Trump, navigated their interactions with the media and implemented strategies to communicate with the press, some of which are still used today.

This is a resource for a student to use in picking out a choice book. It allows recording space for several brief interactions with books as well as easy ways to recall information via multiple learning styles.

From the task itself on the Webquest: "Now that our class has completed reading A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens, you are going to embark on a journey to ensure that Scrooge does not revert back to his miserly ways. In order to ensure this, you will work both individually and together as a team. Many of the tasks will be completed online, but some involve other skills. Follow these steps and you will help keep Scrooge from ever becoming a misanthrope again!"

These activities include: A Scavenger Hunt that provides links to various sites that enable to students to develop a deeper understanding of Victorian England as the setting of the text; a Holiday Menu (exploring cultural aspects of the holiday); Apology Letters written as Scrooge to various characters); Symbolic Tokens (to enable Scrooge to remember his lessons); all compiled as a group 'gift', which I thought was a wonderful symbol of just exactly what learning is :)

This activity is inquiry based where students mimic chromosome mutations by cutting and pasting paper chromosomes.  Students then use this activity to defend a claim that inheritable variations can be caused by mutations.

This resource could be used an a precurser for a lesson on comparing areas of circles and squares. There is guess and check involved, as well as digging deeper to find the correct answer. Students could do part of this on their own device, using GeoGebra to help with graphing the equations. If students do not have access to devices, then the teacher can use it as a class discussion.

This includes questions that can be posed to students, as well as visuals to make the entire task make sense to students. Answer is included.

"Teach students about civic participation and the role it has played in our judicial history with this two-part lesson comprising historic cases, a classroom mock trial, and a research project. Objective: Your students will analyze the impact of historic cases and the role of civic participation in these cases. Students will also demonstrate their understanding of the basic elements of a trial through a mock trial proceeding.
Time: Two class periods
Materials: Student Worksheets #1 and #2, access to online resources, paper, pencil or pen"

Use this module to help students learn about being and engaged citizen. Evaluate the obligations citizens have to obey laws, pay taxes, defend the nation, and service on juries. Experience the responsibilities of citizens at the local, state, or federal levels. Conduct a service project to further the public good. This teaching module comes with lesson plans, readings, student guides and handouts, practice, games, a review, a gallery walk, and an opportunity for student simulation/engagement.
