Second graders investigate the concept of measuring weight, mass, and capacity. In this measurement worksheet, 2nd graders compare items using the words "more than" or "less than." They predict whether an item weighs more or less than a...

For this math worksheet, students solve the problems using measurement conversions. They concentrate on the units used for capacity, weight, mass, and area.

The stage is set for you to guide future physicists through three forceful activities about motion. In the first, learners experiment with rolling carts to discover how objects interact. In the second, they inspect images of an object in...

Students discover their body weight and composition. In this health lesson, students use a body mass indicator to identify their percentage of body fat. Students develop an exercise plan and record progress throughout a month.

As physics masters view this presentation, they learn how nuclear power is used in submarines. They use Google Maps to plot a course through the ocean and calculate the time required for surfacing and traveling. They learn about fission,...

Learners use calculator and non-calculator methods for analyzing data. They apply data collection and analysis in a study of mass and weight. Students enhance and apply the concept of line of best fit. They master graphing in a plane,...

Third graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with the estimate and approximation of different masses. They weigh different objects and compare the different measurements and then use a balance to compare them. Students define the...

What is it worth to you? A hands-on instructional activity asks groups to collect weights of different combinations of coins and calculate weighted averages. They use the analysis to understand the concept of an isotope to finish the...

It's not just a slideshow, it's a lesson on mass. First, learners complete a mental math warm-up, where they determine the number before and after a series of given numbers, then they form groups to weigh packages and compare mass....

In this periodic table learning exercise, students review atomic mass, molar mass, and percent composition of compounds. Then students complete 4 problems.

Facilitate learning by using small objects to teach the principles of atomic mass in your science class. Pupils determine the average mass of varying beans as they perform a series of competitive experiments. They gather data and...

Where does the mass for a growing tree come from? Scholars consider a few different hypotheses and guess which is correct. They then analyze data from different experiments to understand which concepts science supports.

Could you carry a million dollars in $1 bills? As a middle school assessment task, learners investigate different questions regarding a million dollars. They then determine how long it would take to make a million dollars, how...

Students explore the science topics of mass and weight. In this mass and weight instructional activity, students determine the difference between mass and weight as they discuss the definitions and the application the definitions.

Students take personal fitness inventories. In this personal health lesson plan, students take measurements of their heights and weights. Students record the data, calculate their BMI, and then chart their physical activity.

Students determine the mass of various "dinosaur eggs" and graph their data. In this mass, weight, data and graphing lesson plan, students measure the mass of different weighted "dinosaur eggs". They record their data and transfer it to...

Most people realize they would weigh less if they were on the moon, but does it change how much weight you could lift if you were on the moon? Scholars adjust the mass of an object to be lifted and select between four different...

In a cross-curricular measurement and literacy lesson, your class will identify and compare cooking measurement instruments. They read a recipe and sequence a set of similar instructions in which the steps have been mixed up....

Many variables impact your body mass, not just diet and exercise. Scholars collect and study data about body mass to better understand the complexity of a sensitive topic. They learn about leptin deficiency, the hypothalamus, and more.

Beginning biologists explore passive transport through two demonstrations and a hands-on inquiry. Spray air freshener from one spot in the classroom and have class members raise their hands as the scent reaches them. Also, place a teabag...

This PowerPoint is a gem! Seventy-eight slides present an entire introduction to matter in bullet-point fashion. Viewers learn about everything from mass and inertia to phase changes and gas laws! The only glitch is that the links to...

Learners estimate and determine the number of cents (pennies) that are needed to equal the mass of a variety of common objects. They develop a process for measuring and explore concepts related to units of measurement.

Here is a Who Wants to be a Millionaire-type presentation which deals with choosing the correct metric weight for a variety of objects. Things like an apple, a paper clip, and a plastic ruler are some of the things learners consider. An...

Beware the falling fruit. Scholars design and build parachutes that can help protect fruit as it falls. They test out their creations, learning about gravity, weight, air resistance, and measurement concepts along the way.
