Students experience the rotation of the Earth and the Moon, and the revolution of the Moon around the Earth using a playground model.

Students conduct an experiment to determine how different soils affect plant growth over a six-week period. After determining the physical properties of different types of soil, students plant various types of seeds into the soil...

Students investigate learning by bees as related to vision and foraging behavior. The experiment is done outdoors where bees are foraging for food. They make their observations and record their data which is shared with the class.

Students experience a model that produces, separating, and displaying spectral colors.

In this experimentation worksheet, students review the steps of setting up an experiment, determining the correct procedure and analyzing the data. This worksheet has 23 fill in the blank questions.

Eighth graders record the temperature change of the beakers. In this general science lesson, 8th graders create their own data table for recording observations. They discuss experimental results and cite real life applications.

Eighth graders hypothesize what caused the break up of continents. In this earth science lesson, 8th graders study about the events that took place during Mesozoic and Cenozoic Era. They reconstruct a supercontinent and report their...

Learners experiment with a set of materials. They plot the magnetic field that arises from a regular bar magnet. They discover how a magnet affects a compass.

Fifth graders examine how destructive fishing practices affect the health of coral reefs. They watch a Powerpoint Presentation, conduct an experiment, and in small groups create a Powerpoint Presentation.

Students collaborate in an experiment where they decompose water into simpler substances through the process of electrolysis. They collect, measure, and observe data and then place the data into a table. Accomodations for students with...

Students make observations about mealworms using hand lenses, rulers, and cotton swabs. Students complete their own mealworm observation chart, then they share their observations with the class. This is one station out of five in an...

Students identify and categorize knowledge needed to design an experiment. They observe, recognize and describe the motion viewed. They document any changes caused by various solutions.

Students observe a basic chemical reaction as vinegar is mixed with skim milk and microwaved. First, they listen to the teacher read, "Little Miss Muffet," and discover the meaning of curds and whey. While the experiment have an...

Students extract DNA from split peas. In this biology lesson, students hypothesize what DNA looks like and perform the experiment to verify their hypothesis. They explain the importance of DNA in living things.

Students explain the processes involved in the cleansing and purifying of surface water. After a lecture/demo, students engage in an experiment that illustrates how water is cleansed before we drink it.

Students experiment to determine the value and importance of wetlands in Arkansas. They develop an environmental appreciation for wetlands.

Students review the basic principles of plant cell structure, tissue culture, sterile technique, and cell transformation. Next students complete a plant transformation experiment using whole plant material in order to view evidence of...

Students explore the concept that free-fall eliminates the local effects of gravity. They discuss what an Earth-orbiting spacecraft experience is like as well as the terminology of weightlessness. Their lab experiment commences.

Students explore the rotation of the earth. In this science lesson plan, students view photos of various places around the world. Students conduct an experiment in which they can see how the earth's rotation creates shadows on the earth.

Students perform an experiment to find the dew point at ground level and then make a chart to determine where a cloud would form.

Seventh graders research Chinese agricultural needs and practices. They conduct an experiment with aquaculture and germinated rice as they take measurements and apply the scientific method.

Students experiment with making popcorn to discover what makes it pop. They cook various types to survey which brand gives the highest volume of corn.

Students work in small groups to determine the amount of protein contained in an unknown sample. They conduct the experiment, plot the points of absorbency, and present their findings to the class.

Students use a balloon, cardboard support, and wooden ping pong channel to complet an experiment to answer the question "Does Air do Work?" They complete a worksheet to demonstrate knowledge of the concept after the lab.
