Young scholars investigate basic concepts of chance and probability. They make a number cube to predict which number might be rolled the most often out of 20 consecutive rolls and tally the results. Number cube template included.

Students discuss the importance of using adjectives in writing. They separate into five groups, each group is given a bag with an object inside to describe using just one sense. They write a description of a Hershey's Kiss using adjectives.

Students examine and discuss a variety of ways to measure length, capacity, and weight. They estimate and measure a pencil's length using Unifix cubes, estimate and fill a measuring cup with Unifix cubes, and weigh a calculator in a...

It's all about density! Here's a dense workbook for young scientists; they solve (and show work for) 29 density word problems, including a problem where they solve for the density of Godzilla. They complete labs analyzing metal...

Here is a challenging and thought-provoking math worksheet. In it, learners work together to construct a variety of boxes of different sizes to see if doubling the size of a box really means it can hold twice as much stuff as the...

Given a box of certain dimensions, young mathematicians must determine if a box that is twice as big, actually holds twice as much. This is a brain-teaser of a problem. The worksheet provides a handy table that has learners calculate the...

The final resource in a series of 16 phonemic awareness activities, designed to develop the awareness skills needed to detect the vowel sounds in words, features the /ue/ sound. Kids identify and highlight the /ue/ sound in a list of 13...

Students observe that movement of a solute in the solvent increases the rate of dissolution. They demonstrate that when the solute is broken into smaller pieces it dissolves faster.

Learners discover how crystal structures go together to create minerals.  In this earth science lesson, students work in groups to create 3-dimensional shapes of crystals that they then put together in a compact structure.

In this making solid using nets practice worksheet, students sharpen their problem solving skills as they solve 6 story problems.

Students conduct a series of experiments to observe factors that impact molecular movement. In this molecular chemistry lesson, students drop food coloring in water with different properties (hot, with ice, with alcohol) and observe how...

Students compare and contrast two dimensional polygons and three dimentional nets by examining the differences in drawings. They create three dimensional shapes and label the faces, edges, and vertices. After creating the shapes, they...

Young scholars demonstrate different algebraic equations using Borenson's Hands-On Equation materials. They work in a cooperative group to solve algebraic equations.

A few of the components of this lesson plan are not possible to carry out because the rock cycle diagram and challenge handouts are not included. Hopefully, you already have your own rock cycle diagram or worksheet to use as a concept...

In this mental math worksheet, students use mental math to find the surface area and determine nets of the given shape. They use an information sheet as an aide to find the answer to 30 questions.

Acute angles, nets, and vertices are only a few terms that a set of flash cards includes. Among the 108 cards, two types are available; word cards printed in bold-faced lettering, and corresponding definition cards equipped with an...

In this geometry and art worksheet, 3rd graders trace and cut out a cubic net to fold and glue together to learn about the dynamics of three-dimensional figures and shapes.

Middle schoolers choose a mathematician or scientist born on the same day as the student and research them. They create a cube or tetrahedron and place required information on the sides (such as birth year, death yr., greatest...

In this platonic solid worksheet, students observe five solids and draw a net of each three-dimensional figure. Students examine a tetrahedron, an octahedron, an icosahedron, a cube, and a dodecahedron. This is a one-page worksheet.

Third graders explore vocabulary associated with three dimensional figures.  In this transformations instructional activity, 3rd graders create two dimensional nets for three dimensional figures.  Students become familiar with...

Students utilize skittles and unifix cubes to practice the recognition and creation of a variety of patterns. The created patterns are copied onto sheets and the colors are labeled.

In this matter worksheet, students read a chart that uses water to show the three most common states of matter. Students review the properties of solids. This worksheet has 2 graphic organizers and 8 fill in the blank questions.

In this states of matter worksheet, students read about the changes in energy for matter to go from one state to another state. They complete a chart for each state of matter and identify the shape, the volume, its compressibility, the...

Students experiment with yeast. In this environmental conditions lesson students test the viability of samples of yeast. Students investigate the effects of environmental conditions on the yeast.
