Start the year knowing where your students really stand on patterns in the sky warm up. This set was written for Grade 6-8 science classrooms that want a dependable first look at what students already know.
Students will answer questions such as "Which phase follows a Full Moon?", "What is the effect of the Earth's axial tilt during the equinoxes?", and "What phenomenon occurs during a total solar eclipse?"
Because the three worksheets share the same content in three different formats, you can spread them across the week: one for diagnosis, one for practice, and one for assessment, without repeating a single question.
This set belongs to the Back to School Science collection for Grade 6-8. The collection also covers Matter in Motion Diagnostic, Energy Transfer Ice Breaker, Forces and Interactions Cards, Cells The Basic Unit, Food Web Fix It Puzzles, and Earth’s Changing Surface Snapshot, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for sixth grade through eighth grade science classes, and for review at the start of the school year.
