Composting: Why Bother?
The first STEM lesson in a group of 10 explores composting. After discussing how to make a better tomorrow, classes are challenged to track garbage in their communities, visit a local waste management facility, and conduct a survey...
Curated OER
Soil Sample Lab
Learners test the pH of soil samples they collected from the field trip. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate acids and bases. They write a lab report about the experiment.
Curated OER
Acidity
Sixth graders describe the physical and chemical properties of acids. In this chemistry lesson, 6th graders test the acidity of different solutions. They identify acids and bases using the pH scale.
Curated OER
Acid Rain and pH
Young scholars study acidic and alkaline balance. In this acid and pH levels lesson plan, students read information about pH, the formation of acid rain and its impact on environments. Young scholars then complete an experiment to...
Curated OER
Water Quality Monitoring
Students comprehend the four parameters of water quality. They perform tests for salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH and clarity or turbidity. Students comprehend why scientists and environmental managers monitor water uality and aquatic...
Curated OER
Density
Young scholars determine the density of different substances. In this physical science lesson, students rank them according to their density. They discover the relationship between volume and density.
Curated OER
A Comparison of Polymeric Liquids with Newtonian Liquids
Students perform several tests on liquids. For this general science lesson, students compare the properties of polymeric and nonpolymeric liquids. They explain the composition and importance of macromolecules.
