Young scholars participate in an online activity to reinforce the similarities and differences in plants and animals. They classify living things according to observable characteristics.

Students participate in an online lesson showing that gases are formed when liquids evaporate and that when a gas is cooled, it condenses to form a liquid, and gases move and flow more easily than liquids, and how gases differ from solids.

Young scholars practice sorting living things into groups using their characteristics. Using pictures of leaves and animals, they sort them based on their color and shape and write the objects characteristics under the picture. They...

Students place words describing a range from cold to hot on a scale. Using those words, they identify places on Earth which are cold, hot, freezing or boiling. They practice using and reading a thermometer with three different beakers...

Students review what the heart does and why the muscles in the body need oxygen. As a class, they measure their pulse rate while they are resting and after they have jogged for three minutes. They are helped by their teacher to convert...

Students explore the effect of water, temperature and light on plant growth. Students are asked if they remember the LAW for plants. This is Light, Air(temperature) and Water, which all plants need for growth. Students are divided...

Students identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed dispersal, and germination. Students recap the following information: that plants need light, warmth,...

Students participate in a whole class discussion about solids, liquids, and gases. Students get involved in a teacher-directed experiment related to solids, liquids, and gases. Students complete worksheet, writing the names of the parts...

Students create a build-it-yourself boat that runs on two small electric motors. Swamp Thing has an electronic brain that can be controlled and steered with a flashlight.

High schoolers predict the direction of movement for the pointer of a home-made galvanometer for a given current direction and describe how the current-carrying coil exerts a force on the magnet.

Fifth graders make a battery. In this physical science instructional activity, 5th graders word in pairs make the battery. Students follow 4 steps to create the battery.

Students explain how E-bomb works. In this physics instructional activity, students simulate the effects of e-bombs on electronic targets. They discuss its potential harmful effects when used as a weapon.

In this chemistry worksheet, students examine the salt bridge in order to apply in the laboratory setting. The sheet includes in depth background information.

As the title implies, this is a list of vocabulary terms relating to water monitoring. If your ecology class is learning about how to test water quality, this will be an appropriate reference sheet for them. As a bonus, if you live in...

Young scholars investigate how mirrors reflect light. In this reflection lesson, students draw the path of the light reflected from a mirror. Young scholars construct a list of objects that are light sources.

Students visit a website that takes them inside of a computer to see how it works. They investigate the people who contributed to computer technology.

In this computer technology lesson students investigate silicon microchips.  Students explore microchip technology using a microscope.  Lesson contains hands on investigations.

Students study the history of telegraph invention. In this technology lesson, students build their own Morse Telegraph System. They discuss how this invention benefits the society.

Students demonstrate how stellar spectra measures a star's motion relative to Earth along the line of sight.

Students explain that when a beam of light is reflected from its surface, it changes direction. In this virtual science experiment lesson plan, students complete an activity that requires them to investigate how flat mirrors reflect...

Students locate transistor devices in school. They explain the importance of transistors.

Students record their experiments or lessons using a video camera. In this technology lesson, students explain to the camera what they have learned. They watch these together to help reinforce a lesson.

Students examine how micro-organisms are living organisms that are often too small to be seen. They explain that micro-organisms may be beneficial or harmful.

Students explain that mirrors reflect light. They examine how when a beam of light is reflected from a surface, its direction changes.
