The Effect of Temperature on Solubility
In this solubility worksheet, students conduct an experiment to see how temperature effects the solubility of salt in water. Students record their data in a chart and then graph the results. Then students complete 2 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Geoboard Area
Students explore the basic geometric shapes and geometric shape vocabulary through the use of geoboards and virtual geoboards. They create a variety of shapes with a partner, build ten different rectangles on their geoboards, and...

Make This Week's Lessons Pop(corn)!
Students create popcorn timelines, maps, and graphs; do popcorn science and math; explore popcorn history and nutrition; and munch leftover popcorn snacks too!,
Curated OER
The Three States of Matter
Students explore the three states of matter. In this physics lesson, students are shown examples of solids, liquids, and gases. Students make cookies and identify the three states of matter during the baking process.
Curated OER
Rep Tiles
Third graders use pattern blocks of one shape at a time to try to create a similar shape. They compare the perimeter of the new figure with the perimeter of the original shape and look for a pattern. Students use the pattern to predict...

Effects of Friction on a Moving Block
Students investigate how friction affects the movement of a block across surface areas. They test five different kinds of surfaces—smooth surface, wax paper, a paper towel, course, and fine sandpaper. They predict and record the results...
Curated OER
One Size Fits All?
Students describe the differences between an estimate and a guess. They create reasonable estimates based on comparison and activities. Students explain how estimation is helpful in showing the relative size on a scale. They also...

How Does Your Garden Grow?
Students construct and maintain a school garden. In this gardening lesson, students plan the construction of the garden by writing letters to local businesses asking for supplies and materials; students build the garden using their math...
Curated OER
Graphing
Students collect data to create different types of graphs-line, pie, and bar graphs. They use StarOffice 6.0 to create graphs.
Curated OER
Good Health
Students complete a unit with cross-curricular activities to learn about a healthy body and maintaining their health. In this health lesson, students complete 8 lessons to learn about good health, a healthy diet, healthy foods, healthy...
Curated OER
Ooblek
Young scholars demonstrate the three states of matter. In this matter instructional activity, students read Bartholomew and the Ooblek. Young scholars create "ooblek" and discuss what state of matter it is.
Curated OER
Shipping on the Hudson
Students track movements of ships, tugboats, and barges on the Hudson River estuary in order to practice addition and subtraction skills. They solve word problems by reading and interpreting data from a table. They calculate distances...
Curated OER
Freshwater/Saltwater "Eggs-Periment"
Young scholars explore water properties by conducting a class experiment. In this buoyancy lesson, students utilize freshwater, saltwater, plastic cups, hard boiled eggs and food coloring to experiment with the floating capabilities of...
Curated OER
Analyzing 3-D Shapes and 2-D Representations
Students can analyze 3-D objects better with actual physical models and by also drawing 2-D representations of them.
Curated OER
Car Maze competition
Pupils use graphs to calibrate an RCX car. They must then program the car to traverse a maze using their calibrations
Curated OER
The Egg and I
Students collect as much information as possible about their egg and record the information in a systematic way. They prepare a description of the egg your team was given that enable you to distinguish your egg from everyone else's egg.
Curated OER
Perimeter
Young scholars examine the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of a random shape on a grid. Young scholars develop a better understanding of the concept of perimeter. Students calculate the perimeter of shapes.
Curated OER
Finding Your Stride Length
Students participate in an estimation activity to determine the length of a hallway or to estimate how many people can fit in the school stadium or gym.
Curated OER
The Strongest Shape
Students work collaboratively to design and construct a roof out of Legos for a house that was built in a previous activity. The roof must be structurally sound and pass certain criteria determined by the teacher.
Curated OER
RCX Car Line Graph
Students develop a line graph based on distances that an RCX car drives in specified amounts of time. They then are given a specific amount of time for the car to drive and be asked to extrapolate the car's distance from the graph.
Curated OER
Math - "Solid Shapes" - Comparing 3-D Objects
In this geometry worksheet, students learn about 3-D objects and how to describe them. They then answer 10 questions using the information they learned. The answers are on the last page.
Curated OER
The Home Stretch
Students read the novel Stone Fox by John Reynold Gardiner. Using Lego RCX units, students build and program sleds to re-enact the "home stretch" of the National Dog Sled Race.
Curated OER
Balloon Rocket
Young scholars observe a balloon rocket and how it relates to Newton's Third Law of Motion. In this balloon rocket lesson plan, students make a balloon rocket out of balloons, clothespins, straw, fishing line, and duct tape.
