Students observe the water cycle and experiment with cleaning water. In this hands-on hydrology lesson based on a Magic School Bus book, students conduct two experiments to see the how water moves through the water cycle and then they...

Learners investigate the states that water may take. In this physical science lesson, students read the book, Water: Up, Down, and All Around and recall the states of water from the book. Learners examine how water takes the shape of its...

A simple, yet effective instructional activity on dental health is here for your young learners. In groups, your class will place eggs in cups that contain a variety of liquids and observe what happens to the color of the egg. They brush...

In the pre-lab, kindergarteners mimic the movements of the eruption of a volcano and discover various volcanoes around the United States. Then, pupils sort different types of volcanic rocks in the lab before learning how volcanoes grow...

Students detect water leaks. In this water conservation ecology lesson, students take a tour of the school grounds and identify sources of water and possible leaks. Students report leaks to the custodian and administration.

Students use water to paint pictures outdoors. In this water painting activity, students paint pavement and observe how water evaporates. They compare painting in sunny versus shady locations. They also use sponges to observe the...

Students turn solid water (ice) into liquid water. In this solid and liquid water lesson plan, students use water, ice, cups, and heat in order to change water from one state to another. They draw their findings as well.

Students examine the relationship between water and ice. In this physics lesson, students read the book Amazing Water and participate in an experiment where they freeze water into ice cubes. Students observe the changes in the water when...

Young scholars follow this recipe for fun clay creations. In this early childhood art and science lesson, students develop creative-thinking skills, fine-motor skills, and sensory awareness while they make, mold, and decorate salt dough.

Students act as amateur archaeologists as they participate in their own "dig" to explore and record unusual shapes. In this shape exploration activity, students use trowels and shovels to dig, and learn to sift the dirt with screens to...

Young scholars explore the forms of water. In this physics lesson plan, students use ice cubes and observe what happens when the ice melts. Young scholars freeze the water again and record observations.

Students explore the weather system by analyzing water properties. In this precipitation lesson, students review weather related vocabulary terms and discuss how rainbows are created by light hitting droplets at the right time. Students...

Students understand how to spin wool. In this spinning wool lesson, students recognize how to ply and dye wool. Students understand that this is the process used years ago.

Creating story quilts is a great way to combine art, social studies and literature. Kids select a story, a published one or one of their own, to illustrate, paint on a canvas square, embellish, and mount on a felt backing.

A read-aloud anthology closely examines human impact on the Earth while boosting reading comprehension skills. Through stories, scholars examine the concepts of natural resources, pollution, garbage, and recycling and brainstorm...

Students experiment with different objects to see if they sink or float. They can also choose certain colored items if more review is necessary.

Students name the ways in which they use water every day and create a counting book using the ways in which they use water to illustrate it. The measure and graph the amount of water they use when they wash their hands.

Students investigate the water cycle. They observe a demonstration of the water cycle involving ice, water, bowls, and steam, explore various websites, and listen to the book, "The Magic School Bus: Wet All Over: A Book About the Water...

Students construct a water filter. In this engineering lesson, students discover how to construct a water filtration system. Students work in groups to sort tools by their properties. Students analyze and construct a water filtration...

Students complete an experiment using wire screening, wires, water, sand, and food coloring to compare the relationship of groundwater to wells. In this water lesson plan, students observe and record what they see after they complete the...

Students complete an experiment.  In this water pollution lesson, students brainstorm information about river habitats and water pollution. Students then read the story Freddy the Fish and complete an experiment where they use a...

Students recognize a globe and distinguish between land and water, as well as recognize different cultures. They become knowledgeable regarding geography and cultural diversity.

Students differentiate the different phases of matter. For this chemistry lesson, students conduct several hands-on exercises to discover how matter transforms when mixed together. They identify the different stages in the water cycle.

Students draw a picture with water color markers on a paper towel. In this art lesson, students spray water from a spray bottle watching how the colors mix, blend and bleed.
