Max Born and Fritz Haber developed the Born-Haber cycle in 1916, which is used for measuring enthalpy that otherwise couldn't be measured. Young scientists solve four matching puzzles using their knowledge of the stages, standard...

In this conversions learning exercise, students use dimensional analysis to convert from one metric unit to another and from the English system of measurement to the metric system.

This is a great worksheet with an infographic to assist your students in categorizing matter into mixtures and non-mixtures. Information is given about the metric system of measurement. Your young students match 13 terms with their...

Use a lab sheet on circuit diagrams in your electricity unit. Fifth graders draw two series circuits with diagrams, based on two examples. A science experiment prompts learners to use 3x5 cards to illustrate the way a series circuit works.

Become energy efficient with a presentation that covers the Law of Conservation of Energy with friction. It also includes energy transformations, power, and units of measurement.

Students convert English to metric units. In this math lesson, students give examples of measurements they encounter in their daily lives. The share their answers in class.

Fifth graders use metric measurement to study the amount a bison eats. In this measurement instructional activity, 5th graders watch a video about bison and discuss the amount of food they eat. Students weigh their food trays at lunch...

Students participate in an hands-on construction of an instrument to measure wind speed.

It's a gas. Middle schoolers build a biogas generator following the directions in this resource. After a few days of observation, they demonstrate that the gas given off by the decomposing manure is flammable. The activity concludes as...

Students practice converting units of measurement using the ladder method.  In this metric conversion lesson students practice converting metric measurements and filling out the worksheet. 

Second graders create a thermometer.  In this Celsius or Fahrenheit instructional activity, 2nd graders create an individual thermometer to use for measuring the temperature.  Students convert the outside temperature. 

Students explore the concepts of energy transformation and conversion. They engage in Internet and hands-on activities. Students visit the Atoms Family Website and complete a Building a Better Pyramid activity by adding insulation to...

For this review of general science worksheet, students classify examples of matter as mixtures or substances, homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures, or elements or compounds. Students also convert several examples using the standard...

In this measurements worksheet, students review how metric conversions work and the prefixes associated with the conversions. Then students complete 27 problems, 1 short answer, 14 matching, and 7 fill in the blank questions.

In a series of activities, high schoolers research and compare batteries of different chemistries (such as nickel-cadmium), measure current and voltage, and use multimeters and math to compute their capacities. In the end, they try to...

Students work together to build models of prairie plants. Using the model, they estimate the height and then measure them using metric and standard units. They write a fraction to represent their part of the whole set and compare and...

Introduce your class to the workings and parts of a battery-operated circuit. Pairs of pupils use lemons to make batteries and measure voltage and current with a multimeter. An accompanying worksheet is used for recording values and...

Although it was written to use in a science class, this measurement lesson is adaptable to Common Core standards in math for measurement and data. Youngsters are introduced to two types of measurement systems. They use both the...
