Students access George MacDonald's Fairytales website, read exerpts of pre-selected tales, select their favorite and communicate that information via the internet to another class.
Curated OER
Twisters
Students differentiate between the terms 'tornado watch' and 'tornado warning' and simulate the conditions that produce tornadoes. They read "Night of the Twisters" by Ivy Ruckman and conduct an experiment using two-liter plastic...
Curated OER
Cloud Shadows
Young scholars classify clouds as transparent, translucent or opaque. They conduct an experiment to determine the visual opacity of several classroom objects and then conduct further observations of clouds.
Curated OER
Go the Distance
Students work together to build lego cars. They make predictions about how fast they believe the cars will go. They record their observations and discuss their results.
Curated OER
Trends in Precipitation
Eighth graders study about precipitation and graph the information. They look for patterns in a scatter graph and make inferences based on what they see. They need to see a relationship between location and the amount of precipitation.
Curated OER
Building Paper Bridges
Students construct a bridge that can hold 100 pennies. In this math lesson plan, students evaluate the strength of their bridges. They predict how much weight a bridge can hold based on its design.
