Spring Holiday Science Choice Board – Engaging Video Activities for Middle & High School

$3.75

Interactive Spring Science Menu Featuring Biology, Earth Science, Chemistry & Cultural Science Topics.

This Google Slides lesson uses short, curated videos to examine science concepts connected to spring holidays through a student-choice structure. Students select from a set of video-based investigations and analyze each topic using guided questions.

Students choose from approximately eleven science topics and:

  • watch a short, kid-friendly video

  • answer content-based and reasoning questions

  • explain the scientific mechanisms behind seasonal or holiday-related phenomena

Topics include examples such as:

  • how jellybeans are made

  • the biology of four-leaf clovers

  • the life cycle of chicks

  • the science of the spring equinox

  • and other spring-themed science phenomena

The lesson is structured as a choice board, with a recommended number of activities to complete while allowing flexibility based on time and instructional goals.

This lesson is designed to support:

  • application of science concepts to everyday and seasonal contexts

  • explanation of phenomena using scientific ideas

  • engagement through structured student choice

  • short-form analysis of multimedia science sources

It functions well as:

  • a seasonal science activity

  • an enrichment or review task

  • a low-prep digital choice board lesson

The format allows students to explore multiple scientific topics while practicing explanation and interpretation rather than passive viewing.
