Students create their own Chinese kite. In this multicultural art lesson plan, students use butcher paper, newspapers, string, pipe cleaners and paint to create a Chinese kite. Students follow the given steps and attempt to fly their kite.

Learners minerals and how they form. They investigate the classification of minerals according to physical properties. Students watch a video about mineral characteristics. In groups, learners participate in hands-on activities and...

Students examine various polymers. In this polymers lesson, students perform three experiments with polymers to identify them and observe their interesting properties.

High schoolers covert ethanol to ethanoic acid using a condenser for this oxidation reaction worksheet. They test the smell of the final product, add sodium carbonate, and test the product with indicator paper. They explain their...

In this project, you will make 2-dimensional templates, called nets, that fold up into 3-dimensional (3-D) shapes. By making shapes of different sizes, you will be able to see how 3-D shapes change with size. In your findings you will...

This interactive exercise focuses on volume equations, measurement, and problem solving skills to compare the volume of 3D figures constructed from similar amounts of construction materials.

Describing 3D shapes in Pre-K and Kindergarten is now an expectation as it is a key geometry standard. This resource contains 3D shapes activities and resources for practicing this standard. Included are chants, videos, games, poetry,...

This interactive exercise focuses on comparing volumes between figures that have the same height and diameter and drawing conclusions based on the ratios of the sizes.

Using an engaging approach, this lesson requires students to record the volume of cylinders as a function of the radius. Students will construct and measure the volume of several cylinders and then begin comparing these shapes.

Join Allegro in his street orchestra and learn about 3D shapes.

Use this lesson plan to help students learn about cylinders. Students will be creating cylinders, and comparing them and their capacity. This engaging, hands-on lesson will hold student interest and be very beneficial to student learning.

This lesson offers an interesting, hands-on experience for middle school students studying cylinders. Students will create cylinders, and measure and compare their volumes.

Discover the characteristics of 3D shapes in this fantasy world of fish.

Compare a prism and a cylinder in order to determine the similarities of calculating the volume.

This task asks students to compare the volumes of three vases that are different shapes - a cylinder, a cone, and a sphere - as well as one with a combination of shapes. They are then asked to create a vase with composite shapes, find...

Through this curricular unit, students are introduced to the important concept of density. The focus is on the more easily understood densities of solids, but students may also explore the densities of liquids and gases. Students devise...

This lesson introduces learners to the important concept of density. The focus is on the more easily understood densities of solids, but students can also explore the densities of liquids and gases. Learners devise methods to determine...

Concluding a two-part lab activity, students use triple balance beams and graduated cylinders to take measurements and calculate densities of several household liquids and compare them to the densities of irregularly shaped objects (as...
