Students build and compare models of both an energy inefficient and efficient classroom. In this energy efficiency lesson plan, students creatively use recycled materials to build two separate classroom models. They factor in concepts...

Students concretely illustrate and define a macromolecule, observe the unique behavior of polymers and relate to their knowledge of molecules, and use the scientific process to determine the difference between Newtonian and non-Newtonian...

Students research and demonstrate volcanic activity. In this volcanism lesson plan, students research the types of volcanoes and define related terms using the Internet. They demonstrate volcanic activity with water, corn syrup, and flour.

Sixth graders measure and investigate the densities of several objects. They, in teams, determine the mass and volume of each of the 5 objects and record the measurements in the data table.

Young scholars determine the density of Plaster of Paris that has been prepared with a foam generated from dishwashing liquids and shampoo.

Young scholars perform several tests on liquids. In this general science activity, students compare the properties of polymeric and nonpolymeric liquids. They explain the composition and importance of macromolecules.

Pupils create a foldable to help them remember topics on chemical compounds. For this physical science lesson, students differentiate ionic and covalent compounds. Given certain compounds, they identify whether it's ionic or covalent.
