Bouncing off the Walls
Third graders compare the bouncing height of different types of balls. For this science lesson, 3rd graders explain the importance of repeated experimentation in science. They record their result and share them with the class.
Curated OER
Curve Ball
Learners explore the concept of parabolas by collecting quadratic data on a bouncing ball as it is falling using a motion detector. They plot the data and determine the equation of the quadratic in vertex form, then determine the values...

Bouncing Balls
Students create a polymer ball in the lab. In this chemistry lesson, students identify the different properties of the polymer they created. They explain what type of chemical reaction took place.
