Drifting Downward
Students study the effects of different salients and temperatures on vertical movement of an organism. In this experimental lesson students design different shapes of foil to simulate drifting planktonic organisms.
Curated OER
How Does a Thermometer Work?
Students explore how a thermometer works. In this temperature lesson, students use a glass bottle, a straw, and food coloring to construct a homemade thermometer. Students record observations.
Curated OER
Great Grams
Students measure objects effectively using standard units, They examine how consistency in the units used allows for easier and more accurate communication of mass measures.
Curated OER
Gases
Second graders work with gases to determine what the effects of temperature are on volume and air pressure by working with balloons. Also, they experiment with vinegar and baking soda. They predict the outcomes of these experiments, and...
Curated OER
Where's the Oxygen?
Young scholars study seawater and how temperature and salinity influence it. In this oxygen lesson students complete a lab activity on dissolved oxygen.
Curated OER
Slosh, Dribble, and Plop
Students recognize the need for a standard unit of volume. They estimate and measure to the nearest liter. Also they relate the liter to the familiar everyday containers.
Curated OER
Spaced Out
The students are able to use a formula to calculate the volume of cuboids by measuring the length of each of the three dimensions. They also investigate the relationship between milliliters and cubic centimeters.
Curated OER
Ice Cream in a Bag!
Students follow a recipe to make ice cream. In this ice cream lesson plan, students make their own ice cream by measuring out ingredients and following directions.
Curated OER
How Hot Is Hot In Namib?
Students research and demonstrate the temperatures of the Namibian Desert. They watch and discuss a video, conduct an experiment to demonstrate the desert temperatures, record their results in the form of a graph, and compare/contrast...
Curated OER
Statistics for Graphing
Students use the Internet to access a variety of websites that present statistics and information for use in graphing. They represent sports statistics, geographical measurements, temperatures and more.

Sensing the Invisible: The Herschel Experiment
Learners of light will construct a contraption in which light is passed through a prism and shone into a box. The temperatures at different points along the path and outside of the path of light. The intent is to imitate William...
Curated OER
Celsius or Fahrenheit?
Learners compare and contrast the two measurement scales of Fahrenheit and Celsius. They calculate the temperature using both measurements. Students demonstrate their comprehension of these systems by creating a dual-system thermometer...
Curated OER
Physical and Chemical Reactions - Factors Which Affect Reaction Rate
A total of five experiments lead chemistry pros to understand the difference between physical and chemical change. They also experiment with exothermic reaction factors that affect rate of reaction. The procedures are not written in the...
Curated OER
Village Research
Sixth graders research global warming. In this science lesson, 6th graders collect data in the Waterton Townsite, Apgar Village and St. Mary area. Students interpret the data and form a hypothesis about global warming.
Curated OER
Algebra/Geometry Measurement
Fifth graders investigate units used to measure different geometric situations. In this geometry lesson plan, 5th graders measure length, mass, volume and temperature using units for measurements. They estimate the measurements before...
