Curated OER
The Sun as the Driving Force of the Water Cycle
Students study the water cycle and how the sun is an important factor. In this water cycle lesson students investigate how to desalinate water and explore the different densities of fresh versus saltwater.
Curated OER
Icebergs Ahead!
Students examine icebergs and how they are suspended in water, why ice floats, the melting process of an iceberg, and the floating behavior of ice compared to that of a cork through a lab activity.
Curated OER
Determining Acids and Bases
Students use purple cabbage indicator to test five know substances for acidic/alkaline balance. They discuss the safety precautions required both inside and outside a lab in handling acids and bases.
Curated OER
Hot air Balloons
Students study how hot air balloons were created and the different types there are. In this density and lift lesson students build their own hot air balloon.
Curated OER
What is Matter?
Students investigate what matter is and how it changes states. In this physical properties instructional activity, students examine the vocabulary database and identify the characteristics of the three phases of matter. Students...
Curated OER
Water Layering and Circulation
Young scholars examine relationships and interactions between different types of water. They experiment with colored water of different temperature and salinity and discuss how the results relate to real ocean currents.
Curated OER
Sports Helmets and Impact Testing of Polymers
Students examine the importance of good quality safety gear. In this investigative instructional activity, students will tests various polymers, collect data, and analyze the data to determine which polymer is best for safety helmets....
Curated OER
Hitler's Lost Sub
Students watch a video clip about German submarines lost during World War II. They work together to create their own submarine out of a plastic bottle. They test the buoyancy of the submarine in different activities.
Curated OER
Alternative Energy
Students discover the different alternative fuel sources. In this biology instructional activity, students identify the different stages of the carbon cycle. They explain the pros and cons of using alternative energy.
Curated OER
Identifying Elements
Young scholars use diffraction glasses to find similarities and differences between observed spectrum of fluorescent light and an incandescent light They work in groups of 4-6 for the experiment/activity part of this exercise.
Curated OER
Overpopulation
Students examine population growth and how it impacts our environment. In this population lesson students identify the causes and consequences of overpopulation.
Curated OER
Balloons
Students explore the different types of balloons. In this materials lesson students can complete several experiments including building their own hot air balloons, making balloon animals and experimenting with static electricity.
