Students investigate why cells divide. In this cell size lesson plan, students observe how far a solution travels into 3 different size model cells of agar. They answer questions about the most effect movement of "nutrients" into the...

Students perform two experiments to show the properties of enzymes. They use pectinase to produce apple juice from applesauce to show enzyme action and then taste the difference between raw and boiled papaya seeds as evidence of enzyme...

Young scholars examine the properties in oil in water. In this mixture instructional activity, students read about the Lophelia II 2010: Cold Seeps and Deep Reef Expedition and look at images of deep sea ecosystems. They experiment or...

Students examine why diffusion and osmosis happen in an egg cell.  In this diffusion instructional activity students demonstrate a semi permeable membrane.

Students explore math functions by solving word problems in class. In this multiplication instructional activity, students utilize colored cubes and base blocks to visualize multiplication problems. Students identify the multiplication...

High school economists learn about the stock market in a project where they "buy" and track stocks. The author of this resource reports it is the high point of her 12th grade economics course, but no resources are attached. After viewing...

Students discuss the relationship between technology and manufacturing. They then use their ideas to construct a model of a paper board carton package. Next they view a PowerPoint presentation to learn about the history of packaging...

Students examine icebergs and how they are suspended in water, why ice floats, the melting process of an iceberg, and the floating behavior of ice compared to that of a cork through a lab activity.

Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. In this density lesson, students examine a list of items and discuss whether they will sink or float and then determine their density. Students examine the objects over five days...

Students are introduced to the concept of surface tension, its dependence on material composition, and how it can produce uniquely shaped surfaces.

In this physics activity, students determine the density of irregular solids using water displacement method to complete 7 problems and short answer questions.

In this density worksheet, learners read a selection on density and answer 10 questions using the information from the selection.

Students investigate how to find the density of fluids and solids using math. Students also learn how to find the density of regular and irregular shaped objects.

Learners sketch the shape of three dimensional pyramids using nets. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate a pyramid from other three dimensional shape. They define the attributes of pyramids.

Fourth graders accurately describe various states of matter, Through experimentation, they change a variable to create a new state of matter. Students record their observations about the way matter is changed and the changes that occur...

For this metric system worksheet, students read about metric and place value relationships, examine some sample problems, and then complete 5 conversion charts.

In this chemical reactions worksheet, students determine the reaction rate for various reactions, write balanced equations, create graphs showing the reaction over time, and calculate the activation energy and potential energy. This...

Students observe the change in water level as a result of melting sea ice and melting sheet ice.

Students complete a Cirlce Map about time. They recall times during the grouchy ladybugs travels, and add dots on ladybugs using turn-around facts. Pupils correctly sequence the events of The Grouchy Ladybug. Students compose new...

Students create and develop a travel mug. They create visuals and a three dimensional infomercial. They apply an engineering design and demonstrate knowledge of thermodynamics involved in heat transfer. They illustrate Newton's Law of...

Learners discover density.  In this density lesson, students discover the properties of objects that allow them to float or sink in water.

In this grade 5 science test worksheet, 5th graders complete a 30 question multiple choice quiz covering a variety of grade 5 concepts. 

Students discover how engineers use sound energy. They participate in hands-on activities in which they discover how we know sound exists. They identify different pitches and frequencies as well.

Young scholars examine genetics and the DNA of a kiwi.  In this DNA lesson students complete a lab to extract DNA and interpret their results.
