Students sort tarnished metals by type and experiment with different cleaning solutions and techniques to restore them to their natural color and shine.
Curated OER
Food and Fiber: Helping the Environment and You
Fourth graders explore the many uses of corn-based products and the importance of water resources. They consider how biodegradable products help to keep water clean. They perform experiments to observe how corn pellets dissolve while...
Curated OER
Understanding of the Structure of an Amino Group
Students review the characteristics of acids and bases. They examine the structure of an amino group and compare amines to ammonia. They work together to develop the concent of polymerization.
Curated OER
Cannot Buy Me Love
Students investigate the concepts that are related to finance and how it is used in the world. They take part in activities that are focused around the use of a spreadsheet while using a T-chart to simulate a ledger of credits and debits.
Curated OER
Good Vibrations
Students demonstrate sound waves and make changes in the waves
resulting in changes in pitch. Students associate changes in pitch in various "musical instruments"with size and shape and the sound waves they produce.
Curated OER
Wig-wag Physics
Students make observations on the effects of a small, medium and large weight on the movement of a wig-wag apparatus. They use their observations to develop a generalized inference of the effect weight on movement patterns.
Curated OER
Light Travels As A Game
Learners identify ways that light can travel and why. In groups, they develop an experiment to show that light can travel because it is a form of energy. They use this information and apply it to other forms of energy to end the lesson.
Curated OER
Which Wrap Is Wrapped Right?
Young scholars investigate the integrity and strength of different types of food wraps. They test the wraps and create a graphic organizer for the data. Once it is organized then a lab report can be written. The lesson contains...
Curated OER
Where Does the Water Around Our School Go?
Students in groups, map quadrants of the area around the school and make predictions about the direction of waterflow and zones of accumulation that will occur when it rains. Then when it does rain they check to see if their prediction...
Curated OER
Float or Sink?
Students examine why some objects float while others do not. They place various objects in water to observe their floating capability. Students record the object, its weight, and if the object floated. They construct a graph plotting...
Curated OER
The Great Button Sort
Students practice figuring out how items have been sorted. They also sort buttons in small cooperative groups. They color and sort their own paper buttons and then give their button sort to another student to see if he or she can figure...
Curated OER
Inventions 2: The Impact
Students research inventors and inventions and their impacts. In this invention instructional activity, students research inventions and their affects in good and bad ways.
Curated OER
Density, Iron, and Anemia
Learners explain what factors determine density. In this physics lesson, students hypothesize which objects are less dense. They cite the importance of density in everyday life.
Curated OER
Chemical Bonding
Eighth graders identify the three main types of chemical bonds. In this chemistry lesson plan, 8th graders draw Lewis dot diagrams of elements and determine the bond formed. They create a model water molecule.
Curated OER
Pauli's Magical Water
Learners predict the shape of molecules using VSEPR theory. For this chemistry lesson, students differentiate a polar and nonpolar molecule. They discuss why water's polarity is very important.
Curated OER
Physical and Chemical Changes
Eighth graders distinguish between physical and chemical change. In this chemistry lesson, 8th graders observe a series of demonstrations showing physical and chemical changes. They identify the signs that a chemical reaction took place.
Curated OER
Temperature and Altitude
Learners, after reading the explanation given below, use FoilSim to gather and record data on temperature and altitude generated by the FoilSim control panel.
Curated OER
Effects of Ozone in the Air
Fifth graders learn how ground-level ozone is an air pollution problem. Students measure ozone levels and graph the results.
Curated OER
Exploring Our Solar System #1
Students examine the different theories on how our solar system was formed. They discover the order of the nine planets. They also identify the surface features of each planet.
Curated OER
Cubic Volume
Fifth graders record measurements and calculate the volume. They select and use appropriate units and procedures to measure volume # use tools such as technology to solve problems
Curated OER
Look at It from the Right Angle
Students investigate how geometry can be used in the field of fitness and physical performance. They view a video that demonstrates how doctors and therapists mention geometry as they treat sports-related injuries.
