Volumetric Apparatus
Can your class tell the difference between a burette and a pipette? Develop their lab apparatus knowledge using a series of puzzles. The online activity associates the name, image, and sizes of burettes, pipettes, volumetric flasks, and...
Curated OER
Models of Planets
In this planet models learning exercise, students use the radius of a given planet and its mass to answer questions using a model of a planet with a given radius. They determine the volume of the planet's inner core, the volume of its...
Curated OER
Liquid Layers
For this density worksheet, students investigate what will happen when various liquids with different densities are put into the same container. They hypothesis and make observations. Students answer 4 questions about their investigation...
Curated OER
Measuring Matter
Explore various types of measurement with fourth graders. They will practice using balance pans to measure the weight of a coin and a graduated cylinder to determine the displacement volume for a bolt. The metric system will be the focus...
Curated OER
Measuring
In this science worksheet, students concentrate on attaining new knowledge of the science standard using the creative medium of games and puzzles.
Curated OER
Volume
In this volume worksheet, students participate in an experiment to test the volume in a few food containers. Students complete an experiment and then answer six comprehension questions regarding the results of their experiment.
Curated OER
The Three States of Matter
Students explore the three states of matter. For this physics lesson, students are shown examples of solids, liquids, and gases. Students make cookies and identify the three states of matter during the baking process.
