"Understanding Influences," a richly detailed, carefully scaffolded unit, asks middle and high school scholars to examine how internal and external factors like friends, media, and society influence their attitudes and...

It is unknown if cloud cover increases in response to carbon dioxide levels changing, helping climate change slow down, or if cloud cover decreases, allowing Earth to warm faster. Part four in the series of five lessons has classes...

Students design an investigation using yeast. In this environmental engineering lesson, students design an investigation to determine how environmental factors affect the growth of yeast. They will collect quantitative data and discuss...

Learners are given an introduction to the "ecosystem", what factors make up an ecosystem (biotic factors, abiotic factors, food chain, producers, consumers and decomposers) and how those factors interact.

Students explore abiotic factors that affect habitats. After a class lecture, students work in groups to answer questions about plant tissue, production and growth. They share answers, complete a crossword puzzle, and create a habitat...

Young scholars use scientific methods during field and lab investigations. Students collect specimens and make measurements using the metric system. Young scholars describe biotic and abiotic factors in an estuary and design a model.

Students investigate the changes that can take place in an aquatic environment. They conduct research using a variety of resources. The research is used to report different possibilities of change because of abiotic or biotic factors.

Sixth graders identify prime and composite numbers. They participate in a hands-on activity to discover the multiples and factors of specified numbers. They write a paragraph to explain representing factors.

Students explore the prairie and Fermilab's reconstruction project. They observe the abiotic and biotic aspects of the prairie, the savannah and the aquatic environments of Fermilab. Students perform lab and field studies.

In this practice worksheet, students factor the differences of squares and identify prime expressions. Polynomials contain one or more variables, with exponents. Students complete 42 problems. An answer key is provided.

Students are taught how to use the climatology section of the Digital Atlas of Idaho. They discuss the major factors influencing climate. Students gather and synthesize new information to enrich their comprehension of climate factors.

In this number crossword puzzle worksheet, students use the clues about factors, multiples, prime numbers, and odd numbers to complete the crossword puzzle.

Students engage in the process of researching a riparian ecosystem. They conduct a field trip in order to obtain different types of data and work on measurement skills to analyze data to form a conclusion about the biotic factors of the...

High schoolers participate in a foraging activity that demonstrates environmental conditions playing an important role in determining the optimal foraging behavior of a particular organism.

In this nature observation worksheet, students set up a grid on a small plot of land and record all biotic and abiotic items in the grid. They complete 5 short answer questions based on their observations.

Students examine the characteristics that divide Arizona into different regions.  In this resources lesson students complete a worksheet on the biotic communities Arizona has. 

Students investigate tree stems and conduct an experiment on how non living factors affect living factors. In this tree stems lesson plan, students observe and record physical characteristics, and make predictions on what factors will...

Students create a model biome to understand the abiotic and biotic factors that go into creating a biome. In this biomes lesson plan, students should display plants, animals, temperature, precipitation, and more.

Students build a model of biome in order to comprehend the abiotic and biotic factors that are prevalent in a biome. In this hands on building lesson, students use a box to build a biome. . Students decorate the inside and...

Students create a desert biome to understand the abiotic and biotic factors of that biome. In this desert biome lesson plan, students include elevation, precipitation, temperature, plants, and more.

In this math worksheet, students review integrating factors for linear equations. Then they read about the definition and solving of homogeneous equations.

For this molecular mass worksheet, students use factor labeling to convert moles to grams or moles to atoms. Students calculate molecular mass. This worksheet has 6 problems to solve.

Learners study estuaries and how the physical factors change over time.  For this investigative lesson students use a website to gain knowledge of estuaries then in groups they create and present their charts.
