I love your
units and the students really enjoy the
active learning style....They are really enjoying science and learning
at the same time...Numerous students have told me how easy it is to
recall the info because of the activities we have done throughout the
unit, and even my special ed. students are excelling......You're
awesome, when I think of the creativity involved and the time you save
your customers in having to come up with these great units.....All I
can say is thank you so much......
I
love your
materials! I used them last year and my classes scored over
20 points higher on our CRCT test! I attribute this to your
teaching packets...students... became excited about learning through
your hands on activities.

NOTE:
Due to a serious injury I experienced three months ago, I have been
slower than expected in finishing the Weather Packet. Instead of
delaying its publication, I've chosen to offer it to you at a reduced
rate in "Beta" form. Only the Answers and the Weather Test Bank are
still works-in-progress.
TEACHING WEATHER
(Beta form)
by Marcia J.
Krech
The
Electronic Packet includes: Structure and composition of
the
atmosphere, heat transfer, atmospheric factors that
influence weather and how meteorologists measure those factors, air
pressure and fronts, clouds, weather observation and intrepretation,
and possible effects of human activity on the atmosphere.
PLUS:
Each lesson will also contain alternative pages for an INTERACTIVE SCIENCE NOTEBOOK,
with the leftside
containing input from the teacher and the rightside
containing review and interpretation by the student. This is a first
for Marcia's Science Teaching Ideas! Based on the inspiring work of Liz
LaRosa of MiddleSchoolScience.com.

Includes all Packets plus your State's Minerals PPT.
Click each Table of Contents to see the
details for each Packet.
This is a
substantial savings over what it would cost
to purchase each Packet
separately.
From
a Teacher who's just purchased the Minerals Packet: WOW! I have printed
out everything. This is unbelievable! I can't wait
to dig
into it all. I am really hoping that I am teaching science next year
just so I can have fun with this stuff. Thanks again! --May

I received
the Science Lab Safety package! Wow! I have been teaching for nine
years and I've never seen so much material on safety! Your materials
will help me bring life to this subject!
Just wanted to send a quick note
to let you know that I
received the kit. I have it all assembled in my 3" binder and am very
excited to start implementing these ideas into my curriculum next week
when we begin Minerals. You have some very clever and creative ideas.
Thanks so much and you will probably be hearing from me again as I plan
to order some of your other kits.

Teaching
Mineral Identification by Marcia J.
Krech
Over
160 pages of ready-to-run materials covering: The
Chemistry of
Minerals, Mineral Identification, & Mining in
Missouri.
(Can
be adapted to your state).
NOTE:
If I have already made a Minerals PowerPoint for your state, it will be
included in the purchase of this Packet. If not, you may order one for
your state separately below.
I have
my third student teacher and I make sure they see and use the materials
I purchased from you a few years ago - they in turn go back to their
professors and show the product.... In the summers, I teach a 6 week
Earth Science course for the students who failed the year, or failed
the state exam, and I use your work exclusively prior to the intensive
review. It is just the right level for them, and I have kept the 80%
passing rate on the state exam over and over!

First
of all let me just say how much I love your lessons. I just finished
Rocks and your rock cycle simulation with crayons was the best way I
have ever found to teach the Rock Cycle. My kids actually get it, even
my special ed students. -- From an Indiana Teacher

Teaching
Weathering, Erosion, Deposition
and Soil Formation
I
just discovered and love your website. I’ve been doing something like
the “Weathering Walk” for years but it just hasn’t been as productive
as I would like and this sounds like a much better way. I’m looking
forward to trying it out this week.
A
Thank
You Note
from my nephew, Christian, who
used my Weathering
Unit in the fall of 2007.
"Just
wanted to drop another THANK YOU, Aunt Marcia. I have most enjoyed the
Power
Points. I made minor adjustments to the PPT so that students get a
chance to
guess what's coming next. [Great Idea!] They are
such a big help! I'm not sure how else to get the kids into some of
these ideas without these wonderful visual examples. The cutting and
pasting is going well also. At first a couple kids would mumble, "Not
cutting again!" But now I limit the time they have to use their
scissors (5 min) and then I take the scissors back and launch into the
lesson. Your observation about the cut and paste worksheets being so
much better than their own notes is 150% correct! Now when I get to
review and additional sheets I just tell them to find the worksheet and
away they go (at least, the ones who haven't lost it). Anyway, we're
hopefully going on the weathering walk tomorrow (weather permitting)."
