[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] For this learning module, students practice converting kilograms and grams into just grams. Includes video demonstrating a sample problem [0:45] and a set of...

Through ten lessons and numerous activities, students explore the natural universal rules engineers and physicists use to understand how things move and stay still. Together, these rules are called "mechanics." The study of mechanics is...

Using a Periodic table with a list of atomic weights for reference, practice figuring moles of 103 elements.

In this activity, students apply what they have learned about weighted averages, isotopes, and systems of equations to a new situation - coins in a sealed container. They learn some historical information regarding the composition of...

Whether studying health or physical education, this site explains the importance of lifestyle when trying to lose weight and get in shape.

This site, from the National Institute of Diabetes & Digestive & Kidney Diseases, provides statistics, charts, and links on the health issues related to being overweight. Great for research papers!

Find out all about measurement in this test prep lesson exploring English and metric measurement. Students can compare metric and customary measurements using the conversion charts, assess how much they have learned using the interactive...

This lesson will introduce students to measuring weight, mass, volume, and capacity using metric and cutomary units. This lesson plan was created by exemplary Alabama Math Teachers through the AMSTI project.

Assess your understanding of the properties of momentum and impulse with this interactive multiple choice quiz. Immediate feedback is provided.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Uncover the relationship between weight and mass, on Earth and beyond.

The concern over obesity in children in the United States is staggering. This site provides research and statistics along with suggesting ways to change the epidemic. Includes video.

Students use modeling clay, a material that is denser than water and thus ordinarily sinks in water, to discover the principle of buoyancy. They begin by designing and building boats out of clay that will float in water, and then refine...

A unit on energy, force, and motion presented with interactive and classroom activities. Students gain an understanding of weight, mass, potential and kinetic energy, sound, and heat with this engaging resource.

An interactive periodic table of elements. Click an element to view a detailed description. Click the flags at the top to choose your language: English, French, Spanish, Dutch, and German.

In this interactive lesson, learn what the "physical properties" of matter are and how can they be measured and observed.

Physiclips thoroughly presents mechanics concepts with animations and film clips.

Student groups are provided with a generic car base on which to design a device/enclosure to protect an egg as it rolls down a ramp at increasing slopes. During this activity, student teams design, build and test their prototype...

A video and a short quiz on the properties of matter, covering mass, density, weight, and volume.

Students learn about weight by building a spring scale and observing how it responds to objects with different masses.

This resource provides information about obesity, and the importance of weight control.

Includes exhaustive information and a wealth of activities pertaining to aerodynamics and the physics of flight.

Weigh five little creatures on a metric scale, and add to find their total mass to the hundredths place as each one joins the group. A timer calculates your speed of computation.

Dozens of statistical terms are defined and illustrated in this glossary.

Practice comparing mass by trying the Teeter Totter Experiment. Watch the teeter totter move up and down as you compare Marcus to each animal.
