Students conduct an experiment to measure the diameter of the sun. In this astronomy lesson,  students construct a simple equipment to collect scientific data. They calculate the sun's diameter using a given formula.

Students explore the rotation of the planets from various locations on Earth Using planetarium software, they will make observations, and explain how the rotation of the planets varies based on ones location on the Earth. Students...

Students study the motions of the heavenly bodies.  In this space lesson students use models to show a variety of schemes explaining the motions. 

Young scholars make a grid and coordinate system map of their classroom as they investigate why it is important to have a common map making system. They look at how landmarks are used for navigating an area.

Middle schoolers create science design to be painted on the wall in the hallway of the science area of the school building. They measure space available, make a scale model of the design, and paint different pixels.

Middle schoolers explore placing a satellite into orbit, then about forces needed to keep an object in orbit. They examine how satellites orbit in elliptical paths and about properties of ellipses. They learn Kepler's 3rd Law of...

Young scholars observe a teacher demo on how clouds form. In this earth science lesson plan, students discover how cloudiness affects relative humidity. They explain the scattering of light by clouds.

Students read and answer questions about satellites. In this satellites lesson, students read information about Galileo's Whisper and satellite capabilities.

Middle schoolers observe the movement of pendulums, they begin to understand the relationship between gravitational forces and the mass of objects, the changes in speed and direction of objects, and the distance between objects. They...

Eighth graders study the scientific fields and how information can be monitored and recorded.  In this scientific inquiry lesson students view a PowerPoint presentation and complete a hands on activity.
