Blow your learners' minds with a sweet lesson plan on nanotechnology that uses sugar to demonstrate the difference nanoscale surface area makes in dissolving and crystal formation. Plenty of supportive background information is read to...

Students investigate reaction rates.  In this seventh or eighth grade mathematics instructional activity, students collect, record, and analyze data regarding how the temperature of water affects the dissolving time of a sugar...

Students conduct experiments with plants.  In this photosynthesis lesson, students examine plants under different types of lights.  They calculate the amount of dissolved ocygen concentration and compare it to the formula for...

In this fuel sources worksheet, students calculate the E85 alternative fuel costs per gallon compared to the cost of gasoline. Students complete a table to show the comparison prices. They create a triple line graph to show the...

Students collect data to be used in selecting the class favorite taste. They predict which among the common flavors such as salty, sweet, sour, or bitter is preferred.

Students observe the growth of rock candy. In this crystal growth lesson, students make rock candy and measure the crystal growth over five days.

Students confirm the law of conservation of matter by weighing chewing gum before and after it is chewed.

Students practice using measuring techniques by examining bubbles.  In this geometry lesson plan, students utilize mathematic formulas to discover the circumference and diameter of soap bubbles they blow.  Students practice...

Students determine how the temperature of water affects the dissolving time of a sugar cube. They create, interpret and analyze graphs of data, find an equation of the line of best fit, and relate slope to rate of change.
