Curated OER
Solar
Students study solar energy. In this renewable energy lesson students complete several lab activities using different controls and variables.
Curated OER
pH Potential
Pupils experiment to determine the positive and negative impacts of human activities on environmental change. They examine how physical and biological processes such as decomposition affect soil characteristics while looking at the pH of...
Curated OER
Microscopes and Crystals
Students observe crystals under the microscope. In this science lesson, students compare how the crystal look like using their eyes, hand lens and microscope. They identify the type of crystal based on the amount of light they allow to...
Curated OER
The Interactive Periodic Table of the Elements
Students study the different types of metals. For this investigative lesson students watch a demonstration on the effects of temperature on atoms and take a tour through baone matter.
Curated OER
Subsurface Contamination of Groundwater
Students evaluate the potential problems associated with underground storage tanks. They research the potential hazards from various subsurface pollutants and simulate a superfund site cleanup.
Curated OER
Revised “Understanding Nutrition” Activity
Students evaluate their current food choices. In this health science lesson, students test different drinks to rate the amount of Vitamin C content. They discuss results in class.
Curated OER
Ions in the Environment
Students explain the importance of the five main biogeochemical cycles. In this chemistry lesson, students discuss how ions are transported in the environment. They design an experiment to collect data on eutrophication.
Curated OER
Where My Peeps At?
Students conduct a series of activity that demonstrates Charles' and Boyle's Law. In this chemistry lesson, students determine the relationship among pressure, volume and temperature. They solve problems using mathematical equation.
Curated OER
Harmful Effects of Acid Rain
Students participate in an experiment to become aware of the harmful effects of an acidic solution -- acid rain.
Curated OER
Making New Electricity
Students investigate the concepts of energy conversion and conservation. They research the history of energy conversions into electrical energy. They design experiments in order to replicate a conversion of energy into electricity.
