Fifth graders investigate the social and environmental impacts of conventional gasoline powered automotive transportation. They work in cooperative groups to investigate and determine a solution to improve vehicle efficiency and reduce vehicle emission pollution.
Students study a list of cars and trucks and think about characteristics that can be used to show an "evolutionary relationship". From the characteristics they identity, students construct a phylogenetic tree to show how the automotive industry has evolved over time.
Advanced chemistry kids experiment with the freezing and boiling points of various aqueous solutions. They also prepare a presentation of the kinetics of solution formation and structure of the matter involved. This resource provides you, as the teacher, with detailed laboratory instructions as well as extensive background information. You will need to design laboratory sheets so that learners will have instructions on-hand.
Students explore what types of garbage enter the landfill. For this physical science lesson, students explain the importance of recycling. They make a poster about reducing, reusing and recycling materials.
Eleventh graders investigate methods of solving different types of problems. The focus is upon proposing valid solutions to problems that can improve with the presence of an apparent contradiction of worsening at the same time.
Students research and identify positive and negative effects of imported steel on the Indiana steel industry.
Students are introduced to how steel is made and investigate the importance of the steel industry. They participate in a role-play that explores the concepts of taxes, tariffs and imports vs. domestic production.
Students study GPS and its many uses. In this global positioning systems lesson students discover how GPS helps the transportation industry and space travel.
Students solve problems involving ratio and proportion. In this algebra lesson, students analyze the currencies found in different countries. They create formulas to convert between the different currencies and use ratio and proportion to find the equivalent cost of an item.
In this circuits and transformers worksheet, students answer 34 questions about loads, voltage, currents and waves associated with circuits.
