Skills & Standards

Designed for Ontario instruction, this Grade 6 Science set supports crosscutting concepts such as systems, patterns, and stability and change. Students engage with disciplinary core ideas related to Earth and space systems through modeling of motion and relative positions, then practice analytical reasoning to interpret observations. Each worksheet prompts students to develop evidence-based explanations by linking claims to what they observe, model, or measure.

Perfect For

• Teachers seeking structured instruction
• Sub plans
• Homework or review
• Intervention or centers
• Assessment preparation

How to Use

As a lesson bundle, plan a multi-day sequence where students complete one worksheet per day, then use quick share-outs to connect models to explanations. Consider beginning each day with a short teacher prompt (what we predict will happen and why), following with independent work, and ending with a 3–5 minute evidence check where students cite the worksheet’s observations or model results. Rotate worksheets through centers for mixed support, or assign select pages as homework or review before quizzes and unit discussions.
