In the Classroom
Start the class with a mini escape puzzle where students solve a quick math problem to "unlock" the day's lesson. Divide the class into small teams and use a Twinkl math escape room challenge. Teams work through math puzzles, decoding clues to "escape" first. After completing a Twinkl escape room, have students design a math-based escape puzzles for their classmates, reinforcing math concepts through creative problem-solving. Connect escape room puzzles to real-world math applications, such as budgeting for a trip, measuring distances, or calculating time zones, to show students the practical use of math skills.PhET Interactive Simulations - University of Colorado

The PhET Interactive Simulations website, developed by the University of Colorado Boulder, offers free, research-based interactive simulations for teaching science and mathematics. These engaging simulations allow students to explore concepts in physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, and math through hands-on virtual experiments. These PhET simulations are designed for elementary through college-level learners, and support inquiry-based learning and can be used for whole-class demonstrations, small-group activities, or independent exploration. The simulations are HTML5-based, making them accessible on desktops, tablets, and mobile devices without additional software. This resource is an excellent tool for reinforcing key STEM concepts in an interactive and visually engaging way.

In the Classroom
Challenge students to explore a PhET simulation related to a current science topic, such as circuits, gravity, or states of matter. They can make predictions before interacting with the simulation and record their observations to compare with their initial ideas. Give students a scavenger hunt worksheet with specific challenges to complete in a simulation (ex., "Find a way to make a circuit light up" in the Circuit Construction Kit). Students design a virtual experiment using a PhET simulation. They choose a variable to change, make a hypothesis, run multiple trials, and record their results in a data table or graph before sharing their findings. After using a PhET simulation, students discuss or write about real-world applications of what they learned (how forces affect roller coasters, how molecules move in different states of matter) and present their findings using Visme, reviewed here or Google Slides, reviewed here.TeachRock - Rock and Roll Forever Foundation

Numerade is an interactive science and math platform that contains over one million video lessons taught by top educators from around the US. Engage with the site's content through several different options, including questions found in many textbooks, test prep books, or "Winter Break Bootcamps" that provide short, focused lessons on topics such as calculus and physics. Each lesson is a video explanation of specific questions and uses whiteboards to draw and share information. Registration isn't necessary to view and share videos; it provides the opportunity to create classrooms by importing information from Google Classroom or manually creating a class. Use your class information to build and share playlists with students. Registered users also have the option to create and share videos with students.
