Growing Plants Using Space Technology
Students explain why delivering planet nutrients to crops at the correct time and amount is important. Students list possible negative effects of improper nutrient delivery. Students descrive two problems that farmers are now able to...
Curated OER
Coal Formation
Students create a condition in an aquarium which allows the formation of coal. Students observe changes in decomposition and color of materials present in aquarium before a coal layer appears. Plant "fossil" imprints will be left behind.
Curated OER
How Many Drops?
Students conduct a simple test to determine how many drops of each of three liquids can be placed on a penny before spilling over. They come up with an explanation for their observations about different amounts of liquids a penny can hold.
Curated OER
Three Clouds Activity
Pupils explore how clouds are produced through three different age-appropriate hands-on experiments.
Curated OER
The Impact of Acid Rain and the Greenhouse Effect on the Environment
Students study acid rain and complete several activities that show how it affects the environment. They role play members of the community involved in a major decision involving the protection of the environment.
Curated OER
Planets
In this planets worksheet, students read information about Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn and then complete 21 multiple choice, 1 true or false, and 2 fill in the blank questions.
Curated OER
Leveled Problem Solving Rational Numbers and their Properties
In this rational numbers and their properties instructional activity, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.
Curated OER
Ocean Currents Quiz
In this ocean activity, students complete a 13 question multiple choice on-line interactive quiz about ocean currents. Prior knowledge is assumed.
Curated OER
Formation of Rain
Students sequence the steps leading to the formation of rain, and design a model to represent these steps. This task assesses students' abilities to classify, generalize, infer, interpret and communicate data, and construct a pictorial...
Curated OER
Mud Splat Craters
Students simulate crater formation using mud. In this earth science lesson, students identify the features of a crater. They explain how the force of impact affect the crater's appearance.
Curated OER
Distant Relatives
Students investigate observations between widely separated populations of anchialine cave fauna. In this biogeography lesson plan students discuss theories that could explain the given observations.
Curated OER
Ocean Currents
Students label the names, relative temperature, distribution, and direction of flow of major ocean currents on a world map. They also explore and model the natural forces that affect the movement of ocean currents through demonstrations...
Curated OER
Look At What Nature Has Done!
Students examine how easy it is to break rock. They investigate weathering and erosion in a number of activities.
Curated OER
"Fish: Anatomy and Diversity in the Chesapeake Bay"
Students explore a variety of basic fish body form and their functions. They differentiate between different species of fish found in the Chesapeake Bay and St. Mary's River. In addition, they match pictures with descriptions using...
