Learners investigate the magnetic attraction of different materials by observing a demonstration, and review the words "attraction" and "materials." Next they conduct exploration of a number of materials which have different properties...

Third graders define matter as anything that takes up space and has mass, recognize, through experimentation and observation, that matter exists in three forms, including solid, liquid, and gas, and discuss characteristics of each form...

Fourth graders accurately describe various states of matter, Through experimentation, they change a variable to create a new state of matter. Students record their observations about the way matter is changed and the changes that occur...

Students investigate the concept of a polymer using an experimental design of protecting an egg in a bookbag. They test the properties of polymers and form an educated solution to the proposed problem. Then they describe the steps used...

Students explore echolocation of animals. They examine how dolphins and other echolocating animals use their senses to locate and identify objects without using their sense of sight. Through experimentation, they discover how sound waves...

Students observe how to spawn male and female pencil sea urchins. They mix together the sperm and ova from the live sea urchin to observe and record the events occurring in the control and experimental groups for fertilization. Thus,...

Young scholars' identify and analyze the levels of organization and the emergent properties through experimentation. Students' apply the differences in the properties of a plant before and after it has been subjected to a kitchen blender.

Students generate experimental questions regarding conductors of electricity, plug cord into pickle, and measure and graph voltage drop across electrodes. Students then compare to variety of other conductors of their choosing.

Learners apply math skills using formulas to solve a Physics equation. Working individually, students create an equation to calculate the drop rate of an egg from a tower so it will hit a specified target, the teacher. Learners test...

Fifth graders discuss the relationship between producers, consumers, and decomposers as they look at the energy pyramid. While working in small groups, they create an ecosystem that includes all or some of the given categories, and they...

Students participate in a teacher demonstration of the water level in different beakers to investigate the measurement of volume. Next, working in small groups, they replicate the demonstration and determine how the measurements in the...

Second graders watch a demonstration and complete an experiment to determine how an objects' density allows it to float or sink. They work in small groups to assimilate the characteristics of items that float as opposed to simply...

Young scholars examine, through demonstration and experimentation, how water moves through watershed, identify pollutants that can enter water system from different land use activities, and discuss ways people can help prevent water...

Students' recognize the various roles of predicting in science. Students' practice making and interpreting predictions; experimenting to test their hypotheses; and refine their predictions based on observation and experimentation....

Students explore gravitational force. Through experimentation, students observe the acceleration of objects when they fall. They examine air resistance, and how the human body is attracted to the earth. Students discover the...

Students investigate the properties of heat. They explore methods of temperature control and measurement. Through experimentation and activities, students design a high tech tree house. They consider electrical, solar, and natural heat...

Students utilize the interactive spinner and write down the probability of each color in reduced fraction form in the "Experimental Results" column, labeling each color and its corresponding probability in the same order as in the...

Students investigate the applications of DNA fingerprinting, They read crime scenarios and using the details of the crime and laboratory experimentation decide the suspects guilt or innocence.

Students explore the development of paint and paintings during the Renaissance. In a science lab, they reproduce the properties of egg in tempera paint and compare and contrast egg tempera paintings to oil paintings. Through...

Students receive cups and M & M candies. They perform an experiment to compare the graph of theoretical and experimental exponential growth. Students spill a pair of candies onto the table. They add candies for each "M" they see....

Pupils explore the law of reflection. Through experimentation and problem solving, they collect and analyze data pertaining to reflection. The data is plotted on a graph and formulas for calculating the x and y values are evaluated.

In this chemistry worksheet, learners investigate through experimentation the solidifying behavior of some edible fat mixtures by determining their cooling curves. Then they data-log equipment to obtain a large number of temperature...

In this cells worksheet, students will review cell characteristics and structure and different types of cells and what role they play in the body. Students will investigate experimental results of the influence of sucrose on the...

In this chemical reactions activity, students determine the order of a reaction based on experimental results. This activity has 5 problems to solve.
