Curated OER
Examining Infiltration Rates of Various Soil Types
Students formulate their own hypothesis, determine which variables are important to test their hypothesis, design an experiment in which they collect data. They utilize instruments and tools to measure, calculate, and organize data.
Curated OER
Inquiry into Heat Loss and Insulation
Students design an experiment to test the problem of the porridge in Baby Bear's bowl as being just right while the other porridge was either too hot or too cold. They explain the steps of their experiment and record their observations...
Curated OER
Experiments
In this experiments worksheet, learners determine the weight and mass of different objects. Students review variables in an experiment. This worksheet has 8 short answer questions and 11 problems to solve.
Curated OER
Pendulum Problems
Ninth graders explore how pendulums function. In this pendulums lesson students complete a pendulum lab activity.
Curated OER
Coulomb's Law
Ninth graders observe the relationship between electrical charge and force. In this electrical charge lesson students experiment and find the quantitative relationship between force and the center to center distance between objects.
Curated OER
Experimenting with Motion
Students study motion and how different variables can change the outcome. In this motion lesson students answer questions about their experiment and see what the different variables did.
Curated OER
Density, Iron, and Anemia
Young scholars explain what factors determine density. In this physics lesson, students hypothesize which objects are less dense. They cite the importance of density in everyday life.
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
Biofuels Blast!
Students observe yeast fermentation using different energy source. In this chemistry lesson plan, students measure the gas collected in the balloon. They upload their observations on the internet so they can share it with kids across US.
Curated OER
Investigation of Timbre
Students design an experiment to analyze the timbre of different instruments. In this physics lesson, students analyze the missing quality in sound. They discuss their results in class.
