Activity #6 'Nothing' Matters: A Demonstration
Pupils observe the 'pouring' of a gas. They compare the masses (weights) and densities of two gases. Pupils define the following terms: matter, mass, and density. Students answer questions after watching the demonstration.
Curated OER
Measure Your Body
Students measure their bodies. In this math lesson, students record their height and weight. Students measure themselves in six months and observe any changes.
Curated OER
How Things Fly
Students research the mechanics of flight and create a slideshow with one slide dedicated to each of these topics: lift, drag, thrust, and weight. They create a short quiz regarding the material that they presented and give it to their...
