Students explore the weather. In this weather data lesson plan, students collect weather data from Internet and media sources. Students graph the collected data discuss it as well as the seasons of the year.

Students identify and describe three states of water. They predict how water will change states.

In this shaping the land activity, students will match 7 vocabulary words relating to the movement of sediments to its definition. Students will read 10 statements about how water and glaciers impact sediment movement and answer true or...

In this energy worksheet, students calculate how much energy is required to heat solutions. This worksheet has 4 problems to solve.

Students discuss global warming, greenhouse effect, permafrost and other key words.  In this climate instructional activity students create a web that connects global warming, the Arctic and world climate then write a paragraph...

Students create a model of a glacier and observe how it moves. In this landforms lesson, students learn what a glacier is, build a model glacier and observe how it moves in a manner that more closely resembles a liquid than a solid.

Students determine how water and wind affect ocean currents. In this science investigation instructional activity, students follow the provided steps to enable them to consider how explorers may have used ocean currents to their advantage.

Students examine the states of matter; solids, liquids and gases. They explain how the states of matter change from one to another.

Students are introduced to the concept of glaciers. They discover how glaciers move and what types of landforms are formed by glaciers.

Learners demonstrate how ocean currents are influenced by changes in density. They discover that temperature and salintiy affect density as well. They participate in a short experiment to end the lesson.

First graders conduct a science inquiry by comparing water in its liquid and solid form. The students describe the different stages of water and complete a worksheet answering questions about each form of the water. Teacher assessment...

Fifth graders examine the stages of the continuous water cycle that exists on Earth. They observe a water cycle model that is set up in the classroom and write descriptions of what they see. As a class, they discuss models of the water...

Third graders explore the concept of evaporation as they observe how the water level changes in a cup that is left out. Working in groups they observe physical changes in a group of everyday items. They record the changes in shape, size,...

Students investigate scientific concepts and inquire about physical states of matter. The transition of water is considered and is easy to facilitate because of its abundance and often observed physical changes.

In this friction worksheet, students will read about fluid friction and examples of fluid friction. Students will also explore the role fluid lubricants have in reducing friction between two surfaces. Then students will answer two short...

In this online interactive science instructional activity, students respond to 7 multiple choice questions regarding icebergs. Students may submit their answers to evaluated.

In this volume and surface area activity, students answer ten multiple choice questions concerning the volume and surface area of various spheres.

Learners watch a video on matter and identify examples of solids, liquids and gases in the classroom. They discuss the attributes for each kind of matter and conduct an experiment to explore how matter can change form.

For this matter worksheet, learners review the states of matter and the gas law formulas and equations. Students then complete 7 multiple choice questions and 6 problems.

In this compounds worksheet, students describe why metals and nonmetals form ionic compounds and why the formation of ionic compounds are exothermic. This worksheet has 5 short answer questions.

Students perform a play about the early explorers to America.

Eighth graders examine the development of the different temperature scales. They experiment with hot and cold temperatures.

Students study ways in which to identify rocks. They complete a number of activities that introduce them to various ways of identifying minerals in rocks.
