Fifth graders complete four different experiments in classroom stations to investigate how magnets attract and repel.

Junior geometers practice stating the names of different geometric shapes. They define and name the different shapes and compare and contrast shapes to one another. They also relate the shapes to objects in the real world.

Students explore charges using balloons and soap bubbles. For this chemistry lesson, students analyze the Van de Graaf generator to see how charges flow using charged particles, static electricity and lighting. This assignment requires...

Students determine the forces necessary to move a truck on an inclined plane with weight and slope as variables. They identify the cheapest way to transport trash to local garbage disposal sites.

Students experiment with and analyze moving objects and explain their motion in relation to Newton's Laws of Motion. Students then work with partners to design and construct cars that are powered by balloons.

Fifth graders define work, force, and energy and calculate work done using a simple formula. They observe the teacher using an Equi-beam and identify the fulcrum, calculate different work problems, and participate in a class discussion.

Fifth graders investigate simple circuits and identify when a circuit is considered opened or closed. In small groups, they experiment with wires, batteries, and light bulbs to identify how to light the bulb. Students also experiment...

Students investigate the properties of force and gravity and their effects on everyday life. In groups, they test various balls by bouncing them on different surfaces and observe the properties. In another activity, they test marbles and...
