A Powerpoint presentation, Poster, Moviemaker or other teacher approved project. Student project must explain in detail all aspects of the moon phases. Should include explanations of why we see different amounts of the lighted side of the moon, depending on the Earth and moon positions relative to the sun.

Students will create a PowerPoint describing different terms that are used when talking about force and motion.

PowerPoint Presentation of vertebrates: mammals, reptiles, birds, amphibians, insects and fish.

Purpose: Produce a 3D model of a plant cell and an animal cell, to better understand the structure and the workings of these types of cells. You will construct a model that meets the criteria listed below. You are responsible for creating a key with a list of all the organelles in each model. You must demonstrate a knowledge of the structures of each model and the functions of the organelles.

Purpose: Produce a 3D model of a plant cell and an animal cell, to better understand the structure and the workings of these types of cells. You will work with a partner to construct a model made of edible materials that meets the criteria listed below. You are responsible for creating a key with a list of all the organelles in each model. Although you are splitting up the work with a partner both of you are responsible for knowing the different structures of each model and the functions of the organelles. Once the models have been completed you and your partner will be assessed with an identification quiz using your models. REMEMBER: Science is not edible but anything that you do not use to construct the model maybe ingested.

In 5th grade we are learning about the Solar System. Each student is to create a model to share with the class based on information they have found during class time. Their project can be on poster board with pictures, (drawn or printed). They can also look up other ways to demonstrate the Solar System. Below is what they will be graded on. Please be sure to follow this rubric.

Grade 4 is beginning a new science unit on Planets and Other Objects in Space. For our project, students will take their knowledge of our solar system and create a 3-dimensional model of it. The planets should be in the correct order and be relatively proportioned to each other (example: Mars should not be bigger than Jupiter). The sun should be included as part of the solar system. All planets should be clearly labeled in some way. This is a project meant to not only see how students view the solar system, but to also showcase their creativity. Students are encouraged to use color and to get creative while learning. This project is worth 30 points and is due March 21. Each student will have to present their project to the class, so they should come prepared to discuss how their 3-D solar system model was created and be able to discuss a little about each planet.

Help! It's Thanksgiving and your turkey does not want to get eaten. Write a 3 paragraph paper trying to persuade a family not to eat your turkey on Thanksgiving. Then create your turkey.

Student will make a Human Body System brochure to demonstrate his/her knowledge learned about the human body systems. Student will pick one body system and address three organs and their functions in the brochure and also include why the chosen body system is important for survival.
