Young scientists gain a better understanding of space, the solar system and its vastness by creating a scale model. Students first need to calculate the distance between each of the nine planets according to the size of their scale. This...

Students use inquiry to explore how their dunking duckie bobs up and down. In this states of matter instructional activity, the teacher guides the class towards discovering how the dunking duckies continue to bob up and down for days...

Students are introduced to the processes of evaporation and condensation as they observe physical changes in water. They observe how matter changes from a solid to a liquid state. Students are explained that steam is water in its gaseous...

Students conduct a series of experiments on electricity. In this physics lesson, students study the work of Alessandro Volta particularly his experiment on the the Voltaic Pail. They build their own Voltaic Pile to recreate his experiment.

Young scholars observe cytoplasmic streaming in Nitella cells. They examine the conduction of a wave of depolarization across other membranes, such as the axons of neurons. Students predict the effects of sending a small electric...

Students observe the aquatic segmented worm, Lumbriculus varigatus and the life processes. They explore the processes of nutririon, transport, regulation, locomotion, and removal of wastes.
