wouldn't the word malleable be better suited to use in parenthesis for non-brittle instead of ductile?

Yep, great point! Made the change.

This visual is a bit wordy for my students to look at. I am wondering if the actual calculation/plug ins could be showed a on a separate visual

If you would like to see the version with numbers, you can at http://thevisualnonglossary.com/Images/SP029old.png

Great point! See the new version, using symbols instead of numbers

If students answer the last question "one sinks and one floats," you can follow up with "what if both sunk? How could you tell which one is more dense?"

Stephen

One answer to the above question might be, "the one that sinks faster is more dense."

4th Grade TEKS mentions Relative Density directly. Can we get a lesson about the relationship between water and objects?

07-25-24

Stephen Fleenor

Absolutely! Search for dense/density and you'll find a 4th-Grade visual for "relative density."

The Word Wall Card for this visual is somewhat problematic to put on a word wall in a culturally responsive classroom. Is there a way to change it to make it feel more inclusive?

09-19-24

Stephen Fleenor

Good point! Added a diversity of modern humans to show that we all descend from the same ancestors. I also updated the visual to include the latest renderings of our ancestors.

I used this visual with my classes and it really helps students to focus and make inferences. Engaging and fun when we pick popsicle sticks to randomize respondents.

My students might need to see an example of an element that is made up of two identical particles bonded together like O2. It may look like a compound but it is still considered one. This is expected knowledge for 8th grade science students.

Thank you Kristi, this is a really good point! I made this change for 8th Grade and for 7th Grade.

The picture for sodium is incorrect. It is a pile of sodium chloride, which would be a compound, not the element sodium.

Please remove learned behavior. 4.13B only differentiates between inherited and acquired physical traits of organisms.

Done, thanks!

Julie Gibson

Could we add acquired trait as a vocabulary question? This inherited trait visual's current relational question has to do with acquired trait for which there is no visual for.

This visual could be improved by removing the guiding question about Earth's shadow. The lunar cycle does not depend on the Earth's shadow (except during a lunar eclipse).

Are the direction arrows going in the correct direction for polar easterlies? Shouldn't they be curved downward towards the 60* latitude? Thank you
