Curated OER
It's Hot
Third graders examine the effect of sunlight on the earth. Individually, they pick an article of clothing out of a bag and sort themselves based on the color of the shirt and whether it should be worn on a cold or a hot day. To end the...
Curated OER
Learning Lesson: Atmospheric Collisions
Students participate in a demonstration showing how rain drops grow by coalescence. They use ping pong balls and put them in an air stream. They end the lesson discussing flash flood safety.
Curated OER
Personal Resources
Students evaluate thought and action regarding care of ourselves and our possessions. They develop a positive approach to life and a mature sense of self-worth and value. They develop a an appreciation and a voice for individual...
Curated OER
Evaporation and Condensation
Learners explore how temperature effects the processes of evaporation and condensation and how the air may be polluted by the evaporation of certain compounds. For this temperature lesson students complete a lab and a worksheet.
Curated OER
School Building Survey
Students research information in their school. In this school building lesson plan students answer questions about their school to see how it was made, how it operates and what the energy costs are.
Curated OER
Rock Cycle
Middle schoolers explain the processes involved in the rock cycle. In this earth science lesson, students identify the different kinds of rocks. They complete a worksheet during the activity.
Curated OER
How Warm is the Water?
Students research how surface sea temperature changes throughout the year. They draw a time series of sea surface temperatures for each month of the year and a depth profile for a summer and winter month using an OceanExplorer Profiler...
Curated OER
Kitchen Electrophoresis
Students investigate and explain the differences active transport versus passive transport. This activity includes an individual and group activity. The basic steps of electrophores is the focus of inquiry. Identification of the pure...
Curated OER
Population Dynamics of Growth of Drosophila
Students experiment with Drosophila to determine if density of female flies, food sources, temperature and light affect the population dynamics of growth. Students graph their data and compare their results to the number of human...
Curated OER
Population Dynamics of Growth of Drosophila
Students investigate population dynamics such as variation in density of females, composition of food sources an environmental factors such as light and temperature on Drosophila. They then relate their findings to human populations and...
Curated OER
Rain Making - Understanding the Formation of Rain
Students read and conduct and experiment to learn about rain formation. In this water forms lesson, students read about the formation of rain and its purposes. Students then complete a rain experiment activity.
Curated OER
Variables That Can Affect Making Schedule
Learners study the variables that affect transportation of shipments and the factors that affect deterioration of a perishable product. In this transportation lesson students discuss the pros and cons of team driving.
Curated OER
Molecules And Temperature
Students explain that molecules are in everything living and nonliving. They explain that molecules are too small to see but we can watch their movement.
Curated OER
Making Models
Students make a model of their thumbs to reinforce understanding of an adaptation. This lesson plan is one part of a multi-segmented unit on animals and survival.
Curated OER
Pioneer Farm Cooking
Students explore pioneer farm life and the types of cooking and ingredients available. They recreate a pioneer version of a sno-cone and discuss why crushed ice was used more often than snow in this recipe.
Curated OER
Ground Level Ozone Testing
Students prepare Shoenbein Paper to test the ground level of ozone. They dip a strip of their test paper in distilled water and hang it at a data collection site. They determine the relative humidity of the data collection site. Using a...
Curated OER
Coal Ash Analysis
Students use ash contnet, one of the important environmental concerns, that can be determined by massing the residue remaining after buring a sample of coal under controlled conditions. They complete a lab making ash content. Students...
Curated OER
Bicycle Pump Pressure
Students explain that air pressure applies a force. If any of students have flown in an airplane, they have felt the "popping" of their ears caused by the change in atmospheric pressure because of the altitude changes.
