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.
PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOUR SCHOOL/DISTRICT ALLOWS YOUTUBE ACCESS BEFORE PURCHASE.
