Come Fly With Me
Pupils apply the Bernoulli Principle. In this flight instructional activity, students design and test a glider.
Curated OER
Airplane Wings
Students examine the aerodynamics of a wing and how it generates lift. In this flight activity students complete several experiments including how to build a paper plane and how airfoils affect performance.
Curated OER
Hot Air Balloon
Students view a video and discuss the mechanics of a hot air balloon. They, in groups, construct a functioning hot air balloon.
Curated OER
AMACO Fused Jewelry Technique
Students create glass to create a jewelry project. In this fused glass design project, students design original pieces of jewelry, glue them and burn off the glue in a kiln.
Curated OER
Spring Break Bubbles
Pupils blow bubbles. In this bubble lesson, students use a bubble solution and straw to blow bubbles. They attempt to blow bubbles inside of one another and create a bubble frame.
Curated OER
Reservoirs and Production
Students complete activities for a lesson about reservoirs and production. In this geology lesson, students complete a 7 page packet of activities to explore porosity, permeability, and rock properties.
Curated OER
How Do Airplanes Stay off the Ground?
Students use balloons and string to duplicate Bernoulli's Principle of wing shape and its affect on liftoff.
Curated OER
The Buoyancy Factor
Students examine why some objects float in water while others sink and the ability of something to float does not depend entirely on its weight. Archimedes' principle is introduced and buoyant force is discussed. Practice calculations...
Curated OER
Meteorology Word Search Puzzle
In this science activity, students look for the words that are related to the theme of the activity. They also work on the skills of spelling and word recognition.
Curated OER
Kidney and Related Concepts
In this kidneys learning exercise, students review the function of the kidneys including what happens when the kidneys stop working. Students also compare kidney function in fish, frogs, and kangaroo rats. This learning exercise has 86...
Curated OER
Updrafts in Action
Students examine how wind can suspend rain and hail in clouds. They focus on safety precautions they can take to protect them from the hazards of thunderstorms.
Curated OER
The Big Balancing Act
Students describe chemical changes occurring in hydrothermal circulation systems. They make inferences about the significance of these systems to ocean chemical balance compared to terrestrial runoff.
Curated OER
Toilets and Neurons
Pupils explore the concept of action potential and its effects on voltage-gated channels. Students compare and contrast a flushing toilet to an action. They examine its effects on the population of voltage-gated channels.
