Young scholars perform experiments to determine their lung capacity and respiration rate. After choosing and performing one of two methods to discover lung capacity, they measure their respiratory rates and assess conditions that affect...

Determine physical properties of potential packaging materials. Continuing from previous lessons in the series, the resource asks groups to identify physical properties of the substances. They test for conductivity, solubility, water...

Students examine the crisis in Sudan. They identify the medical situation in the region and discover how they respond to emergencies. They research diseases that are prevalent in the region as well.

In this respiratory system worksheet, students compare how much air a person can typically exhale in one breath as compared to others. Then they develop a questionnaire to test their subjects and respond to the questions proposed.

Students determine their lung capacity by completing a science experiment with a bottle of water. In this lung science lesson, students discuss the lungs' purpose. Students complete an experiment to determine their lung capacity using a...

Have you ever wondered how a ship made of steel can float? In this project you'll investigate how much weight boat hulls of various shapes and sizes can support without sinking.
