Molecular View of a Solid
Why are solids, well ... solid? Take a peek inside a solid substance with an easy-to-use interactive. Science sleuths examine the motion and position of the atoms that make up a solid before drawing conclusions from their observations.
Curated OER
Intermolecular Force
For this molecular force worksheet, students list the different intermolecular and intermolecular forces exhibited in pairs of chemical compounds shown. Students list the different bonds found in several compounds.
Curated OER
Keeping Warm
Students investigate how different types of objects act as thermal insulators. In this online lesson plan, students hypothesize how particular objects act as insulators and then complete the online activity to determine which materials...
Curated OER
Sound
Students complete a unit to learn about sound; students include multiplication and division problems along with rate problems. In this sound activity, students complete 7 separate lessons with multiple activities to learn about sound.
Curated OER
Freeze and Thaw Continuous Tag
Students dressed as "Snow Angels" run from "Jack Frosts" until a "Heat Meister" comes to unthaw them. They play this tag game in order to increase their heart rate and warm-up the large muscles (and to have fun.)
Curated OER
Keeping Warm
Fifth graders measure the temperature of water using a thermometer. They record the temperatures of water on a chart. Students use the temperature data to determine which materials are the best conductors of heat. They discuss their...
Curated OER
What's it Like Inside the Sun?
Students perform experiment in which they model convection as it occurs in our Sun. They also explain that convection acts where the effect of gravity and heat are present (low density fluids can rise and cool, and high density fluids...
Curated OER
Water Speedway
Fourth graders observe changes in matter caused by the addition of heat. They participate in a physical education activity where they deal with science concepts. They have a knowledge of how particles act in water when heated.
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Air Pressure Phenomena
Students consider the relationship between pressure and temperature. They observe a demonstration and explore the relationship between heat and volume when pressure remains constant. Students discuss relational causality and consider...
Curated OER
Melting and Freezing of Water
Students differentiate the three states of matter. In this chemistry lesson plan, students analyze graphs of heating and cooling curve of water. They complete a lab report and discuss results.
Curated OER
So, just how hot am I?
Students design a lab demonstrating the scientific method. For this earth science lesson, students investigate different materials for their heat absorbing property. They report their findings in class.
Curated OER
Coal Moisture Analysis
Young scholars investigate coal samples and analyze its drying loss under controlled conditions. They establish the loss in mass of a sample when heated under controlled conditions of temperature.
Curated OER
Invisible Ink
Young scholars are introduced to the concept of chemical change when they observe the chemical change that occurs between vinegar or lemon juice and heat.
Curated OER
Cookie Bar Coal
Students observe the effect of heat and pressure on materials representing those involved in the formation of coal.
Curated OER
Cracked Marbles
Fourth graders determine how weathering, specifically ice, snow, and freezing water change the Earth's surface and rocks. After completing the investigations, they explain how heating and cooling expand and contract marbles until cracks...
Curated OER
Don't Marry the Mole!
Third graders examine the power of solar energy. In groups, they create their own pizza box solar oven to discover the power of the sun and how it is a source for heat and light. To end the instructional activity, they use the internet...
Curated OER
Is It Hot in the Light?
Third graders make observations about the temperature of items in direct sunlight. In groups, they discuss why asphalt, brick and cement are warmer than items surrounding them. To end the lesson, they examine how heat transfers energy...
Curated OER
Periodic Table
Students identify the periodic table trends and predict material properties. They also design and conduct simple experiments and test material properties. Finally, students compare and contrast material properties and that chemical...
Curated OER
Computer Science: Temperature
Pupils conduct an experiment on heat transfer and how it works. They record the temperature in whatever environment is surrounding the container and run experiments that use at least two different ambient temperatures. Students...
Curated OER
Modeling the Rock Cycle
Students explore the differences in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. They discuss the rock cycle of the different formations. Students discuss how rock is formed into different shapes. They explore, predict, and create each...
Curated OER
Gases, Liquids And Solids
Young scholars investigate how gases are different from solids and liquids and that they can evaporate and condense. They observe water boiling in a teapot and discuss what happens when the steam touches a cold window, complete an...
Curated OER
Air Expansion and Contraction
Students observe that air exerts pressure, that heated air expands and that cooled air contracts. After the demonstration, students engage in a question and answer session about what they saw.
