Students investigate the states of matter. In this physics lesson plan, students use water and ice to demonstrate the characteristics of a solid and liquid. Students record their observations as the state of the water changes.

Students study the liquid and solid states of water. In this water states activity, students complete three experiments to study water as it cycles from a liquid state to a solid state and back. Students finish with a Venn Diagram...

Young scholars examine states of matter. For this solids and liquids lesson, students conduct a scientific investigation that requires them to make ooze and record their observations pertaining to it.

Students examine water. In this chemistry lesson, student examine the physical properties of water and how it changes from a liquid to a solid or a gas. This lesson contains links to a second and third complimentary lesson on...

Eighth graders are introduced to the topic of Environmental Chemistry. In groups, they review the steps within the scientific method and develop their own hypothesis and design an experiment. They solve equations related to the...

Students explore water. In this water lesson, students explore the physical properties and states of water. They observe how water changes states and document what they see.

Fifth graders explore American colonial life. In this interdisciplinary history and science lesson, 5th graders participate in several hands-on activities that require them to make colonial products that involve physical or chemical...

Students explore the physical properties of water.  In this water instructional activity, students observe, measure, and describe water as it changes state. There are 2 extensions for this instructional activity that one can access...

Young scholars explore the water cycle. For this water cycle lesson, students simulate the water cycle by placing an ice cube in a Ziploc bag and observing the changes which occur over time. Young scholars record the mass of the Ziploc...

Learners identify the effect caused by change of employment and education. In this statistics instructional activity, students analyze data and draw conclusions. This assignment tests learners' ability to use data correctly.

Learners discover how water expands when frozen during a glacier. In this matter lesson, students fill a glass jar with water, leaving no room for air in the jar and place it in the freezer.  Learners retrieve the jar and notice the...

Students give examples of erosion and weathering processes. They determine causes of America's Dust Bowl phenomena.Students define erosion as the condition in which the earth's surface is worn away by the action of water and wind.

Students investigate alternative catalysts for the degradation of hydrogen peroxide.  In this fermentation lesson students complete an activity that breaks down cellulose into sugar. 

Students examine the role photosynthesis plays in plant survival.  In this renewable energy lesson students document their observations and analyze and interpret their results. 

Eighth graders analyze physical change in mass. In this chemistry instructional activity, 8th graders describe, measure and calculate the amount of physical change occurring in mass before and after the change. Students should be...

Students discover the history of hot air balloons by watching one ascent.  In this physics lesson, students utilize a Montgolfier Hot Air Balloon from an earlier lesson and record the temperature, rate of ascent and the volume....

Learners construct and observe a model of two different types of wetlands. In this wetlands instructional activity, students create a model of a wetland with constant drainage and a wetland that maintains a well-saturated soil. Learners...

Eighth graders investigate the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas in a closed container. They measure the height of the water in their beaker/container, conduct their experiment, and create a graph to illustrate their data.

Third graders analyze the effects of force on an object in motion and its relationship to a change in speed. This instructional activity uses a pendulum to demonstrate the principle.

Students, in groups, use given materials to devise a way to deposit a ping-pong ball into a paper cup that is located in the middle of a 6-foot diameter circle, while standing outside the circle.

Students gain an understanding of how systems and organs in the human body work. They create their own fictional account of a trip through the human body, and describe one response the body makes to stimuli.

Assist your high school class with researching and applying the principles of gravity so they may further understand why Einstein is so widely recognized, even today. Individuals compare and contrast two different models that demonstrate...

Coordinate planes and Cartesian graphing systems are the focus of this math lesson. Learners use video, internet activities, and engage in hands-on activities in order to explore coordinate planes. The materials needed for this lesson...
