Fourth graders study constellations. In this space science lesson, 4th graders discover what makes stars, how bright stars are, and why constellations were created. Students make their own constellation using Saran Wrap and a frame.

In this math worksheet, learners examine the position of an object and then use the formulas to determine its path over time. Then they apply the information in order to determine the traveling path of an asteroid in space.

In this space science worksheet, students read facts about the solar system. Students look at the diagram showing the position of the planets. Pluto is included as a planet here.

Students understand that people believe there may be life in other solar systems. In this communication with other solar systems lesson, students analyze our planet and write things they want to communicate to other solar systems.

Students explore the concept of gamma ray bursts. They examine basic physics concepts about light, measure the shifts of spectral lines, and utilize Hubble's Law to deduce the velocity of an astronomical object.

Students explore the three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system and discuss how it is important for structural engineers in order to be able to describe locations in space to fellow engineers. They participate in a hands-on activity...

Students envision how space observatories make use of monochromatic filters to collect data on the color of objects in space. They see the actual colors of objects when they are in monochromatic light.

Learners explore linear equations. They participate in a simulation to save the International Space Station from intruders. Students create linear equations to save the Space Station from aliens.

In this solar system, students review information about the planets found in our solar system. Students complete 15 fill in the blank questions and then find the 9 planets in a word search.

Students investigate the concept of dark matter and how it occurs in the universe. They conduct research using a variety of resources. Students use the information by reading at least two articles about dark matter. They also generate...

In this moon shadows instructional activity, 3rd graders follow the directions to set up a demonstration about the sun, the earth and the moon.

In this phases of the moon worksheet, students record in a record sheet the moon's phases over a period of several weeks. Students then answer one question.

In this making craters worksheet, students make craters using paper, sand, golf balls and other materials. Students follow 4 sets of directions and answer 3 short answer questions.

For this gravity worksheet, students use a ping pong ball, golf ball, tissue, and more to test which falls faster a heavy or light object. Students also answer 5 questions.

In this fly away moon experiment instructional activity, students follow the procedures to demonstrate the effects of gravity on the earth and the moon.

In this science investigation worksheet, students follow the provided instructions to examine jet propulsion. Students respond to 11 questions regarding the investigation.

In this expanding universe instructional activity, students create a universe with balloons, clothes pins, markers, and more and see what this means for the distance between the Earth and stars. Students follow 6 directions and answer 3...

For this friction worksheet, students use books, a bucket, string, weights, and more to test what happens to friction when they use wheels to roll an object instead of sliding it. Students also answer 5 questions.

For this bones and joints worksheet, students build a model of an arm with sticks, balls, and caps to see how bones and joints work. Students also answer 4 questions.

In this scientific investigation worksheet, students follow the provided procedures to examine the number of cells in animals and then respond to 3 short answer questions.

Science is magic that works. Magical color-changing beads and a coffee can that follows voice commands are just two examples of magic tricks that rely on science. After completing a hands-on activity and an experiment investigating the...

High schoolers solve five problems including finding the cross sectional area of two bodies, determining the swept out volume of a moving body, finding the average particle volume of a body and determining the collision time for a body.

Young scientists create a simulation of Hubble's law. Introducing the Big Bang Theory using balloons and a simple lab worksheet, scholars complete a data table and perform analysis.
