Curated OER
Bernoulli's Principle
Students explore Bernoulli's principle, how it is related to flight, and the effect of lift, thrust, and drag on flight. They design and develop an experiment that tests for distance traveled by their paper airplane, and record and...

Fluids: Force in Fluids
Discuss Archimedes' Principle and fluid forces with your young scientists as they describe the relationship between mass, volume, and density during a series of engaging activities. They use the Participle Theory of Matter to explore the...
Curated OER
Students use fundamental counting principle to compute combinations and permutations
Pupils define Pascal's triangle and special notations used to represent nth elements. In this geometry lesson, students solve problems using permutations and combinations. They compare the formula for permutation to that of Pascal's...
Curated OER
Applied Science - Physics Pre-Lab
Young scholars observe fluid motion. In this Physics lesson, students explore the principles of Pascal, Archimedes, and Bernoulli. Young scholars list their experiences with fluid movement.
Curated OER
Water Lesson Plan
Students discuss the importance of water in our daily lives. In this physics lesson, students calculate the pressure of water tower systems. They investigate the effect of certain variables using a computer simulation.

Tire Pressure
Learners use an interactive simulation to explore the connection between force and air pressure. They adjust the mass of a vehicle and air pressure in its tires and predict the result. As the vehicle's mass increases, the tire pressure...
Curated OER
Liquid Pressure
Fifth graders create a Cartesian Diver model made from plastic soap bottle and medicine dropper. In this incompressible liquid lesson, 5th graders experiment with jugs of water to demonstrate Pascal's Law, Boyle's Law and...
Curated OER
Eisenhower 1/26
Eighth graders identify and explain what Bernoulli's Principle is and draw diagrams to incorporate Pascal. They also perform simple calculations of density, buoyancy, and fluid pressure. Finally, 8th graders describe fluid pressure in...
Curated OER
Properties of Matter
Students describe four states of matter and their characteristics, explain thermal expansion of matter, interpret state changes in terms of kinetic theory of matter, explain relationship between temperature and volume of a gas, state...

Discovering Enzymes
Explore the function of enzymes through a series of lab investigations. Learners use household enzymes such as hydrogen peroxide to model the role of enzymes. The enzymes break down proteins with and without a catalyst.
