Fifth graders rename measurements with cups, pints, quarts, and gallons. For this measurements lesson plan, 5th graders pour different amounts of liquid that they transfer from cups to pints to quarts and to gallons. The then have to...

In this measurement worksheet, students complete word problems having to do with measurement in the form of liquid measurement. Students complete 10 multiple choice problems.

Students study the water cycle and the different forms of water.  In this exploratory lesson students observe, measure and describe water as it changes state.

Learners observe water as it changes form.  In this water lesson students observe, measure, and describe water as it changes state. 

For this capillary action worksheet, learners follow directions to see the ability of liquids being drawn up into small spaces using beakers, paper, rulers, food coloring and more. Students follow 8 sets of directions and write a...

Sixth graders explore cooking by creating food in class. In this ingredient measurement lesson, 6th graders discuss some of their favorite foods and review the proper recipes to cook them. Students utilize fractions to create a new...

Young scholars examine why having standardized units of measurement is important. They investigate the use of non-standard measure, twigs, while measuring the piece of tape. Next, they experiment with straws, paper clips, and rulers...

Students experiment to find which liquids are more dense.  In this density and mass lesson, students predict and then test objects to observe and measure their density. students observe which items sink and float. Students complete...

Students calculate the densities of several liquids that appear similar.  In this physical science lesson, students go beyond understanding the way liquids of different densities behave to researching how this knowledge applies in...

Learners explore how various substances change from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a solid and how temperature, pressure and nature play an important role in this process. In this melting and freezing...

Students use standard rulers to measure the length of common classroom items - such as pencils, books, desk tops - in inches and centimeters, and measure weight in pounds. They also answer math questions, such as "How long is the front...

Young scholars measure their bodies. In this math lesson, students record their height and weight. Young scholars measure themselves in six months and observe any changes.

In this metric units of measurement worksheet, students read information about estimating lengths and masses, then solve 65 problems. Sample problems with solutions are included.

We know solids have a density we can measure, but what about liquids? Lesson explores this concept and allows scholars to explore the relationship between volume and density. Graphing and analysis questions round out the activity. 

Dare your class to drive dissolved carbon dioxide out of carbonated liquid at different temperatures to discover if there is a difference in rate. To make this experiment more sound, have explorers use equally measured amounts of soda...

Learners identify the stages of the water cycle. They listen to the book "Magic School Bus: Wet All Over," examine the Build Your Own Water Cycle website, predict and measure the amount of water in a jar for a week, and read a short play...

Fourth graders calculate density, compare densities of solids and liquids, measure liquids using a balance, and investigate the significance of density. They conduct an experiment to determine an order of densities, and complete a...

There's nothing quite like a glass of ice-cold, freshly squeezed lemonade. Lesson seven of this series explains how the water humans need to survive can come in many forms. Teach your class about how much water humans require every day...

In this scientific method worksheet, students read over the basic steps of the scientific method and then apply those steps to a specific example. This worksheet has 8 short answer questions.

Students experiment with the cohesion of water molecules. In this surface tension lesson plan, students estimate how many drops of water a full glass can take before overflowing. They watch a video that explains water molecules.

First graders observe ice melting and water evaporating. They experiment with sugar and water and read the poem "Matter Really Matters." They define vocabulary words and sing a matter song.

Students observe and explain how a change in temperature causes a physical change in a substance.  In this physical science lesson, students use a soap making kit to observe the effects of adding heat to the bar soap as they...

Second graders listen to a book read to them entitled, WHAT MAKES A RAINBOW and recall and describe their five senses and what parts of their bodies use their five senses and then complete the Catch a Rainbow activity sheet using a...

Young scholars investigate common household items and classify them into types of matter. In this matter lesson, students group given items into categories based on their characteristics. They also complete a concept map about matter and...
