Students propose and perform an experiment using the scientific method. The purpose of the experiment is to discern some earth materials or combinations of earth materials that best increases the pH of "acid rain". From the results of...

Students collect weed seeds from three varieties of weeds (knapweed, thistle, or toadflax, for example they may choose others in addition to the spotted knapweed.) They sterilize soil for thirty containers, plant seeds in sterile soil,...

Fifth graders investigate evidence for changes in matter that occur during a chemical reaction.

Sixth graders complete a variety of activities to explore both positive and negative effects of microorganisms. They, in groups, engage in a series of experiments which illustrate the effects of certain molds.

Young scholars explore and discuss October, 2001 anthrax attacks and their aftermath.

Twelfth graders compare the permanence of papers by testing pH, determining presence of alkaline reserve as well as fold endurance, and testing lignin content. They indicate the strength by using a starch test as a comparison.

Enrico Fermi was a titan of twentieth-century physics. He outlined the statistical laws that govern the behavior of particles that abide by the Pauli exclusion principle and developed a theoretical model of the atom in his mid-twenties....
