Reinforce math vocabulary instruction with a set of flash cards. Fifty-six cards offer either a bold-face word or a picture representation equipped with descriptive labels. Terms include centimeters, gallons, square units, and more!...

Here is a lesson that kicks off with a question. "How does ice floating on the ocean act as it melts?" As learners investigate this natural phenomenon, they'll discover that it has a lot to do with temperature, salinity, and the effect...

As part of an investigation of transformations of exponential functions, class members use Newton's Law of Cooling as an exponential model to determine temperature based on varying aspects. The resource makes comparisons between...

Students examine the changes in Earth's temperature. In this global warming instructional activity, students perform an experiment testing temperatures of soil. Students record their findings and discuss what made the differences in the...

Students create a ruler for the purpose of measurement using the standard and metric systems. The rulers are of different lengths and are compared to one another. Then students make conversions of different lengths using both systems of...

In this gas worksheet, students use the ideal gas law to find volumes of gases, pressure of gases, moles of gases, mass of gases and molecules of gases. They find unknowns at standard temperature and pressure and they calculate the...

In this mean and median worksheet, students examine given data and determine the measures of central tendency for the data.  Students compute the mode, mean, median, and range of data.  They create stem-and-leaf plots. ...

High schoolers test for the presence of enzymes in fruit and the specificity of those enzymes, as well as to identify and show the susceptibility of enzymes to certain environmental factors (temperature and pH) originating in the...

Students examine the different ways heat can be felt.  For this radiation and conduction lesson, students recognize that the sun radiates heat. Students conduct three experiments to find how the sun warms the Earth and how that heat...

Students explore the senses, taste, touch and smell. In this instructional activity about senses, students perform experiments, or activities. Students complete three activities in order to become more familiar with the three senses of...

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 explore the water cycle. In this earth science lesson plan, students observe and measure water in a closed container and in an open container. Students record their observations and compare their sets of data to draw conclusions...

In this measuring weather worksheet, students fill in the blank of 4 statements about the different tools scientists use to measure weather. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

Students discover that different textured materials can absorb more heat than others. Students work with thermometers, clocks, and graphs.

Students organize and analyze data regarding changes in tropospheric ozone and then hypothesize about the consequences of these changes.

Students identify a plant in a given community and make a variety of measurements. They determine how a plant meets its basic needs. In addition to identifying plant parts, they observe seasonal change and compare plants within a community.

In this online math worksheet, students practice converting between a variety of metric measurements. When complete, students submit their answers and get instant feedback regarding their accuracy.

In this measurement worksheet, students practice converting temperature given in Celsius to their Fahrenheit equivalents. They fill in 33 blanks with the temperatures.

Students measure the heat of physical and chemical changes in reactions.  For this chemistry lesson students determine at what extent changes emit or absorb heat. 

Students document the weather. In this seasons lesson, students study the weather, record the temperature outside and photograph what the weather conditions look like. All information gathered by the students will be made into a book.

Students explain that molecules are in everything living and nonliving. They explain that molecules are too small to see but we can watch their movement.

Students illustrate the changes in the properties of a material at its glass transition point. They gather data which they use to construct graphs regarding elastic modules versus absorption modulus, tangent delta, and the effect of...

Diagrams bring barometers to light in this PowerPoint. Several slides explain the structure and function of this apparatus. The relationship of air pressure to the processes of evaporation and boiling are also explained. This would be an...

I hate doing laundry, even if it is an independent living skill that requires me to count money, follow a sequence, and sort clothing by color. Learners with multiple disabilities discuss what laundry is, why they need to do it, and how...
