Fourth graders diagram the weather in Utah through the use of a glyph. In this Utah weather activity, 4th graders create weather glyphs of different areas in the state. Students answer questions about the weather and then compare their...

Students simulate the water cycle. In this water cycle lesson, students create a model of the water cycle. Students draw the water cycle and write a paragraph explaining their drawing.

Learners create models of the greenhouse effect using recycled 2-liter bottles. They discuss how their models compares to the real greenhouse effect the earth experiences.

Students study the role of plants in recycling water by collecting water vapor that is emitted, or transpired, by green plant leaves. They collect and measure the water that transpires through the tiny pores of plant leaves. Afterwards,...

Students investigate earthworms. In this organisms lesson, students observe earthworms in their environment and record their behavior towards light and how they eat. Students continue on a month long observation.

Students demonstrate their understanding of the water cycle and how it effects the environment by graphically depicting and describing the water cycle.

Young scholars investigate Nanotechnology. In this physic's lesson, students evaluate a hands-on model made from chocolate syrup and pretzels to determine the advantages of size.  Young scholars weigh chocolate syrup to...

Middle schoolers consider the effects of topography on climate patterns. In this earth science lesson, students research weather patterns and make inferences of how the land forms may create different climates. Middle schoolers compare...

In this science worksheet, 3rd graders focus on the weather. Students respond to ten fill in the blank questions regarding specific terminology used in weather.

In this weather activity, students read a selection about the water cycle and cloud identification. Then the students fill in the missing words in 5 sentences and write the name of 5 cloud types while describing the clouds.

Fourth graders investigate saturation conditions and measure the dew point. They conduct an experiment, record data on a worksheet, and measure the dew point in the experiment.

Students analyze the causes of corrosion. In this chemistry lesson, students investigate what is necessary to cause chemical changes in matter. Students discover the causes of rust and tooth decay.

Second graders record and summarize daily weather observations for a week in the form of a bar graph. They cut and glue a weather symbol for each day, record it on the graph, and answer discussion questions.

Second graders make daily weather observations, record them with appropriate stickers on a chart, and then summarize them at the end of the week in the form of a bar graph.

Learners participate in three stations in which they are made aware of the environment, ways to preserve it, the importance of preserving it and their part in preserving it. They discuss where items are found, recycling, and...

Students investigate quality products. For this Physical Science lesson plan, students will test three different types of caulking. The students are looking for the caulk with the best adhesion after two days of curing.

Students visit a local creek or stream. They collect water samples from the creek and observe and sort the "water critters" they find in the sample, observing smaller organisms under a microscope if necessary. They identify each organism...

Students examine how desert plants and animals are adapted to life in the desert. They listen to the book, "Seasons of Saguaro," conduct experiments to demonstrate plant succulence, and create and draw an animal or plant that...
