Young scholars list characteristics of wetland and describe the functions of a wetland.

Students investigate types of trees. In this forestry lesson, students read the book The Mighty Oak and act out the story with a partner. Students discuss the types of trees in the book and plant an oak tree on school grounds.

Students study prokaryotes and eukaryotes and compare and contrast them. They review the parts of the cell and define th eterms prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In pairs, they identify the organelles in a prokaryotic cell and a eukaryotic...

Students investigate th anatomy of a flower. They investigate the structures and processes by which flowering plants generate pollen, ovules, seeds, and fruit through dissection,

Students review the units of the metric system, and practice estimating measures before actually converting between the two systems of measurement. They participate in activities to visualize a concentration of one part per million....

Learners plant their seeds and collect and organize their own materials for planting. They also set up their planters with wicks, fertilizer, potting mix, and seeds. Finally, students write their names on planter markers with a ball...

Students share what they know about plants and discuss what else they would like to know. The teacher evaluates students' prior knowledge of plants to inform future instruction. Students practice observation and prediction skills.

Pupils describe this work of art as reflecting the beliefs of Mexicans in the viceregal period. They create their own sculptures in a lightweight material that shows themselves in an active pose.

In this plants worksheet, students name and locate the major organs of flowering plants. Then students color, cut and paste a flower model by following the directions given.

Ninth graders design and conduct an experiment. They evaluate other's experiments. Students describe relationships between biological systems and the environmental contaminants. They work as a team to solve a problem.

Students observe dried bees, carefully glue them to toothpicks, and use them for cross pollinating their Brassica plants. They also describe reasons why two similar investigations can produce different results. Finally, students...

Students examine the clinical effects of environmental toxicants on living organisms by collecting and analyzing scientific data and identifying ways of detection and diagnosis.

Really only five slides of information, this resource is an outline on planting field crops. From it, aspiring agriculturists are exposed to different seeding methods: drilling, row crop planting, broadcast seeding, and air seeding. This...

In this biomes learning exercise, students read an article on biomes and answer 10 multiple choice, short answer or true and false questions relating to biomes.

Second graders make a KWL chart and brainstorm what they need for the project of growing potatoes. They choose one potato and plant it in water or peat moss cups and choose a location in which meets the needs of the plants and make their...

Middle schoolers explore the cell and cell processes. They create "cytoplasm", make a model of the cell and its organelles, and simulate the osmosis and the diffusion of materials into and out of the cell.

Students examine invertebrates. In this animal classification instructional activity, students discuss invertebrates and bilateral symmetry. They discuss the importance of horse shoe crabs in medical science.

High schoolers conduct a series of activities to explore the nature of cells. In this biology lesson plan, students observe plant and animal cells under the microscope and compare them. They differentiate osmosis and diffusion.

Learners identify auxins from their structural formulas. They understand the process of refluxing in chemical synthesis. Students perform thin layer chromatography using silica gel plates to differentiate chemical substances.
