Air and Water in the Environment
Students demonstrate an awareness of air as a substance that surrounds us and takes up space, and whose movement we feel as wind. They predict and describe how local weather conditions affect living things, including themselves.
Curated OER
Specific Heat of Air and Soil
Students are introduced to the concept of specific heat. In groups, they are given a set of data showing the temperatures of air and soil samples in which they calculate the ranges of the data. They identify whether the air or soil...
Curated OER
Warm Air versus Cold Air
Students discover that warm air takes up more space than cold air. In this science lesson, students perform 4 experiments using balloons to determine that the molecules of warm air are more spread out than those of cold air.

Sucking Students into an Understanding of Air Pressure and Vacuums
Young scholars develop and test their ideas about air pressure and vacuums by conducting several investigations into the movement of fluids in tubes.
Curated OER
Gases Lighter and Heavier than Air
Students explore the concept of air density. In this air density lesson, students fill balloons with helium and carbon dioxide. Students determine which gases are heavier or lighter than air.

Air Pollution:What's the Solution?-Weather's Role
For this air pollution and weather worksheet, students collect data using an online animation to determine the air quality at given times along with the wind speed and temperature in a particular city. Students make 3 bar graphs using...
Curated OER
Hot Air Balloons
Students examine how a hot air balloon works. In this hot air balloon activity, students do an experiment to test the effects of heat on density. Students make their own hot air balloon and act out how nitrogen moves when turned to a...
Curated OER
Cleaning Air with Balloons
Students examine how a pollutant recovery method functions in cleaning industrial air pollution. They listen to a teacher-led discussion, conduct an experiment with balloons, static electricity, and pepper, and observe and record the...
Curated OER
There's Air in There!
Students attempt to blow a wad of paper into a soda bottle. In this physics lesson, students discover that air pressure inside of a soda bottle prevents new air from going in.
Curated OER
Particulate Matter- How Dirty is the Air We Breathe?
Fourth graders investigate air pollution. In this air pollution lesson, 4th graders test the air quality by using a block of wood and petroleum jelly. Students investigate the pollutants on the wooden block.
Curated OER
Air Pollution:What's the Solution?
In this air pollution worksheet, students use an air quality map and answer eight questions about the colored areas on the map. Students compare red, orange, and yellow cities and identify the air quality in each city.
Curated OER
Air Pollution: What's the Solution?
For this air pollution worksheet, students watch a video about asthma and indicate the triggers of asthma. They also use a web site to get real time data about the ozone, particle pollution and air quality to answer four questions....
Center for Innovation
Air Pollution: What's the Solution?
In this air pollution worksheet, students collect data for their county of residence as well as 10 surrounding counties including the total population and the county grade for the air. They use a map of their state and identify the 10...
Curated OER
What Happens When Air is Heater or Cooled?
In this air pressure learning exercise, students use a can to demonstrate how air pressure collapses a can when placed in hot water.
Curated OER
Air Pollution
Students collect and examine particulate matter found in the air. In this pollution activity, students use microscope slides and petroleum jelly to collect particulate matter from several different locations, then use a microscope to...

Hot Air Balloon Design Lesson Plan
Sixth graders discuss what they know and what they want to know about hot air balloon using a KWL chart. They then use a wide array of materials to design a hot air balloon that will lift successfully in cooperative groups referring to...
Curated OER
How Much Oxygen Is In The Air?
In this science worksheet, students take a close look at the composition of air while focusing on the content of oxygen. They use clay to model the amounts.

Causal Patterns in Air Pressure Phenomena Section 3
Students investigate the effects of differences in air pressure on a system. They answer the question, "What makes a liquid go up a straw when you suck on it?".
Curated OER
Air and Weather
Second graders study Earth's materials. In this air and weather activity, 2nd graders note changes in the weather and examine tools that help us study the weather. Students analyze how changes in the environment make changes in the...
Curated OER
Population and Air Pollution
Students conduct Internet research to compare the impact of increasing populations and how it affects air pollution in both, the USA and Russia. Students present their finding in a creative manner by developing brochures, bumper...
