To prepare for the SOL push I published this set of SOL terms with many pictures on the Quizlet Flashcard/Game platform.
The content can be printed for a written review/quiz or played in a classroom environment as a live activity from student computers or with a teacher exerting control from a central projector screen.
This site is compatable with Google Classrooms! Students can be assigned the review as homework. Quizlet keeps scores and correct/wrong answers if students are enrolled as a class.

How does energy flow in and out of our atmosphere? Explore how solar and infrared radiation enters and exits the atmosphere with an interactive model. Control the amounts of carbon dioxide and clouds present in the model and learn how these factors can influence global temperature. Record results using snapshots of the model in the virtual lab notebook where you can annotate your observations.

Students will use the iterative design process to plan an algorithm that demonstrates the travels of raindrops through a local watershed from beginning to end using a storyboard. Students will write an algorithm for another student to draw the local watershed based on their algorithm. Students will check their classmates' drawing for completeness, accuracy, and efficiency, and provide feedback. Students may need to debug their algorithm based on feedback.

Explore forces, energy and work as you push household objects up and down a ramp. Lower and raise the ramp to see how the angle of inclination affects the parallel forces acting on the file cabinet. Graphs show forces, energy and work.
Students will design a ramp to move a toy car from one …
Students will design a ramp to move a toy car from one location to another.Then they will measure to determine how far the car moves on the floor until it stops rolling. They will record their data in a table after measuring with nonstandard units.
Students will learn about the twin STEREO spacecraft and how they are …
Students will learn about the twin STEREO spacecraft and how they are being used to track solar storms through reading a NASA press release and viewing a NASA eClips video segment. Then students will examine data to learn more about the frequency and speed of solar storms traveling from the Sun to Earth. This activity is part of the Space Math multimedia modules that integrate NASA press releases, NASA archival video, and mathematics problems targeted at specific math standards commonly encountered in middle school textbooks. The modules cover specific math topics at multiple levels of difficulty with real-world data and use the 5E instructional sequence.
This is a set of four, one-page problems about the size of …
This is a set of four, one-page problems about the size of planets compared to earth. Learners may use ratios to compare planets within our solar system or those outside of our solar system with the earth. Options are presented so that students may learn about the MESSENGER mission to Mercury through a NASA press release or by viewing a NASA eClips video [6 min.]. This activity is part of the Space Math multi-media modules that integrate NASA press releases, NASA archival video, and mathematics problems targeted at specific math standards commonly encountered in middle school.
