⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Extremely satisfied "This is a great resources and it made teaching easy."

The Following Resources Are Included:

• Daily Teaching Timeline
• 5 weeks of teaching material
• 11 lessons
• Optics Unit - Speed Quizzing
• Optics - Digital Interactive Notebook
• 1 unit test and 4 quizzes with answer key
• Pinhole Camera 1-3 Day activity
• 2 Lab Station Activities
• 1 Digital Scavenger Hunt
• 1 Test and 4 Quizzes
• Digital Interactive Notebook
• Speed Quizzing Activities
• Optical Phenomena Reading
• All lessons contain student and teacher versions of the presentation as well as a student lesson outline

Each lesson contains:

• The lesson (student and teacher versions of the presentation)
• Google and Office-ready versions
• An auto-graded Exit Ticket
• Embedded videos
• A student lesson handout as a document

This unit includes both Office and Google formats for ALL lessons. The presentations are in PowerPoint and Google Slides while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.

• Your resource is perfect for distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom as I've included a link that will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive with one click.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It safeguards you in case your department or school decides to go Google 100% and allows you as well as your students to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.

Buyer Comments:

- "I will be using this when I teach my heat, light and sound unit. Light and sound are not my strengths. I bought Fergy's astronomy unit and my students loved it. I look forward to using this unit as well. Thanks!"

- "As a teacher with no science background, this unit saved me. Thank you"

- "My students are enjoying this unit very much. There is a great deal of material presented in a way that it captures the students' attention. Terrific!"

- "This set saved me a lot of time and work! Thanks"

- "Excellent resource; will save me so much time!"

- "Love this product, it has saved me a lot of time preparing for my year 9 energy lessons. Thank you"

- "I wish you had more stuff that worked for me! I loved this unit!!"

- "This was a lifesaver! My first time teaching science and it ended up being stress-free thanks to this resource. Definitely worth every penny!"

Google Classroom and Exit Ticket

• Each resource in this bundle is perfect for in-class or distance learning and integrates seamlessly with Google Classroom. Included is a link that with one click, will automatically create a copy of the resources and put them directly into your Google Drive.
• Purchase --> Open --> Click --> Assign to your students
• On the last Google Slide is a link to a four-question Exit Ticket that you can give as homework or to conclude your lesson in class.
• These lessons include both Google and Office versions for ALL resources. The presentation is in Google Slides and PowerPoint while all documents contain Word and Google Doc versions.

Having both options allows you to use either without worrying about formatting issues as all the work has already been done for you. It also allows you, as well as your students, to access everything no matter where you are or what kind of equipment is being used.

Digital and Distance Learning:

This lesson is fully digital which makes it perfect for the classroom, distance learning, or as a sub-plan if needed. With a single click, the entire package will be imported into your Google Drive and will be ready to assign to your students or present in class. You can also place a copy of the resources directly into student Google Drive accounts for easy access.

Included in your package is an Exit Ticket which can be directly accessed from the last Google Slide. Additionally, your purchase will create a copy of the Google Form Exit Ticket which you can edit to meet your class needs.

Student Versions:

The student version of the lesson contains multiple blanks that need to be filled in throughout. These blanks are conveniently underlined and bolded on the teacher copy. I have found this to be the most effective means of keeping my students engaged and active without having them write everything out. This also leaves more time for discussion and activities.

NGSS Standards:
HS-PS4-1 - Use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.

HS-PS4-3 - Evaluate the claims, evidence, and reasoning behind the idea that electromagnetic radiation can be described either by a wave model or a particle model, and that for some situations one model is more useful than the other.

TEKS Standards (Texas):
Physics - 4B, 4C - Wave Properties

Physics - 5A, 5B - Light

VA SOL Standards (Virginia):
PHYS.1a - The student will demonstrate scientific reasoning and logic.

PHYS.1b - The student will demonstrate skills necessary to conduct scientific inquiry and design solutions to problems.

PHYS.2a - The student will investigate and understand characteristics of waves including wavelength, frequency, and speed.

PHYS.3a - The student will investigate and understand reflection, refraction, and diffraction of light waves as demonstrated through the use of mirrors, lenses, prisms, and diffraction gratings.

These standards cover key topics in optics like wave properties, light behavior, reflection, refraction, and modeling light as a wave - all of which are explicitly taught within the lessons and materials in this unit package.
