Students create an experiment in which they measure the speed of a wave and record the data in a graph. They work in small groups to write the procedure for the experiment and share it with another group for cross checking of the...

Fourth graders study about sound waves and how they behave in various media. They create a soundproofed container. They explain that velocity describes a change in distance over time.

My forecast is that you'll want to use the resource. Pupils design and create a weather bot as part of a project-based unit. These bots should be able to measure temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, wind speed and direction, and...

After reading an interesting account of how the X-1 aircraft was designed, built, and utilized, young engineers try their hand at constructing a paper glider version of the airplane. They cut out the plane out of a nicely designed...

Learners build an anemometer and measure wind speed. In this wind speed lesson, students build an anemometer using the student instruction sheet. Learners visit the Alaska windspeed website and look up the wind speed forecast. Students...

Students define pitch, measure varying amounts of water into containers, make predictions about the sounds made when striking the containers, put containers in order from highest to lowest pitch, and create their own sound patterns with...

Students recognize, identify and produce words that begin with the /sp/ sound. They decorate objects that have the /sp/ sound with items that have the /sp/ sound. Students create phrases with the /sp/ sound that describe the object...

Pupils complete activities to study wind intensity. For this wind study lesson, students discuss wind speed and direction. Pupils then build a kite and windsock to help them study wind intensity. Students learn to use a wind meter for...

Learners determine their reaction time using a ruler. In this Physics lesson plan, students calculate the class' means and variances. They plot the graph and analyze if there are outliers.

Eighth graders are introduced to what makes a strong, sound structure. They explore about the truss structure, the importance of the strength of the triangle and the distribution of forces along the truss. Students work in teams to...
