Most of these are from ScienceSpot.net and a link is provided to download those ppts (answers are provided) for each topic from her website.

I saved and organized all the ppts onto my personal Google Drive. I select the starters I want to use, consolidate the slides with the questions only, and create one Google Slide Presentation. The Google Slides (without answers) are accessed by the students to complete their homework. We go over the prompts at the start of class each day. For more details about how I use prompts, please visit the main page (link)
