Students explore how to work cooperatively with a partner.

Seventh graders progress through the Science Court: Gravity CD-ROM program. They read about and discuss how gravity was discovered. They complete review worksheets in preparation for the test.

Pupils study scientific names and descriptions of forces.  In this motion lesson students organize information into a graphic organizer then teach it to other pupils. 

Students identify the different types of friction. In this physics lesson, students explain how weight affects friction. They calculate normal force and coefficient of friction using a mathematical formula.

Pupils construct various types of paper airplanes, exploring action and reaction forces by conducting a paper airplane rodeo. Students then discuss how Newton's Third Law of Motion affected their planes.

Students study about the creation of a German village in South Korea for returning emigrants. They examine other cases of migration and relocation from modern world history.

Students watch an episode of the PBS show "Jay Jay the Jet Plane," and explore magnets and gravity. They conduct various experiments involving magnets and sand, bean bags, and a fishing pole with magnets.

Third graders are introduced to the six types of simple machines and discover how they make tasks easier. In groups, they rotate between stations to experiment with the different types of simple machines. To end the lesson, they make a...

Fourth graders discuss the myth of Galileo's experiments in which he threw items out the leaning Tower of Pisa to find out how fast they fell and predict what they think could happen when the two items listed on the same line are dropped...

Students explore technology by completing a worksheet in class. In this common machinery lesson, students define the different designs that make simple machines work such as wheels, pulleys and gears. Students utilize verbs to describe...

For this printing of both upper and lowercase letter Pp worksheet, students trace and print the letters Pp 11 times. Students write the letters Pp eight times on the lines provided.

Students experiment with clay to create sculptures. They research various animals and work with parts of animal names to create their own imaginary animal sculptures using clay.

Students examine indentured servitude. In this Teaching Tolerance lesson, students compare indentured servitude of colonial America to the undocumented immigration of today. Students write reflections regarding how they feel about...

Young scholars work together to test the strengths of various types of magnets. After testing, they create a graph showing how the strength changes as the distance from the magnet increases. They discuss how forces can act from various...

Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. In this gravitational force activity, students define several scientific terms associated with force. Students utilize a styrofoam cup and marbles to simulate a satellite...

Students are introduced to the process of mask-making. Using different cultures, they examine how masks have changed over time and identify the reason for them. They create their own mask with tooling foil and decorate them using...

High schoolers spend time examining the concept of water pressure. In groups, they research the amount of air pressure that is felt at different levels above sea level. Using a calculator, they calculate the water pressure given...

Students examine the relationship between water and ice. In this physics lesson, students read the book Amazing Water and participate in an experiment where they freeze water into ice cubes. Students observe the changes in the water when...

Students continue to study rhyming words. They use words and illustrations to help develop their vocabulary.

Students create instruments to demonstrate their understanding of how the science of vibrations is used to create sounds.

Students examine the western migration in the United States in the early 19th century and identify the factors that caused the migration as well as how government adapted to meet the needs of an expanding country.

In this materials worksheet, students will review different types of materials and the structures that can be made using these materials. This worksheet has 7 fill in the blank, 6 matching, 1 short answer, and 6 multiple choice questions.

Students explore human migration. In this human migration lesson, students investigate multiple factors contributing to the growth of major Arizona cities.  Students discover the processes, patterns, and functions of human settlement.
