Students are told that the weight of a car is equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. When a car is at react on a horizontal road, there must be a normal force with which the road pushes up on the car to keep it...

Students, while defining an extensive list of vocabulary terms on the board, identify common signs and symbols that they may encounter when traveling or using some form of transportation (enter, exit, push, pull, men, women, caution, no...

Students perform locomotor movement.  In this locomotor skills lesson, students practice running, hopping, skipping, and walking then form themselves into groups based on a number called out.  Students identify if more or less...

Students create miniature "brussel sprout" bunnies using clay pots, brussel sprouts, mini poms, Easter grass, and fake silk flowers. This lesson is intended for the upper-elementary classroom during the Spring season (March or earl April...

Pupils identify proper body alignment through experiencing proper sitting, standing or prone positions. They identify and demonstrate different types of movements.

In this forces worksheet, students draw the indicated vector and show the components into which it is resolved and then calculate for acceleration, speed, or momentum. This worksheet has 12 word problems.

Young scholars explore magnetic attraction. In this magnets lesson, students participate in an interactive whiteboard activity in which objects are dragged onto a virtual table and categorized as to whether they are "repelled" or...

Waves, waves, and more waves. Here, class members look at the many types and characteristics of energy waves including transverse, longitudinal, standing, seismic, p-waves, s-waves, and l-waves. 

Third graders discuss the collection of toys and demonstrate to the class how a given toy moves. They discuss the part of this toy that could be broken or missing to cause the toy not to work. Which parts could be broken and the toy...

Students work together while they use various locomotor skills to practice beginning sounds of words and the letters of the alphabet. They walk, run, skip, gallop (or any locomotor skill that the teacher requires be used) alongside the...

Students work together to examine inclined planes. They create a plan to raise rocks to build pyramids. They discover the changes that occur when the angle is increased or decreased.

First graders study, observe, and use a simple machine. They study necessary safety and review posted safety rules related to using a machine and identify strategies for reporting any accidents or injuries.

Students view farm objects or products made from farm animals and follow the oral instructions given by the teacher. They are given worksheets, there are three sets of directions for the one worksheet. Students worksheets have everything...

Students participate in an online lesson to explain how to make bulbs brighter or dimmer in a series circuit by changing the number or type of components.

Learners examine how micro-organisms are living organisms that are often too small to be seen. They explain that micro-organisms may be beneficial or harmful.

Students place words describing a range from cold to hot on a scale. Using those words, they identify places on Earth which are cold, hot, freezing or boiling. They practice using and reading a thermometer with three different beakers...

Students predict the common classroom items, such as paper clips, chalk, keys, or erasers, that will be good conductors in a circuit. They build circuits using a variety of circuit diagrams to test their predictions.

Preparing for an AP test is about more than bubble sheets and memorization. The two activities in this resource require a direct application of skills learned throughout an AP Physics course.

Students explain the concept of the "push-pull" effect. They distinguish between voluntary and involuntary immigrants and apply the concept of double consciousness to the immigrant's sense of national identity.

Fourth graders investigate Newton's Second and Third Laws of Motion. They determine what makes objects harder or easier to push. While investigating they determine how applying force in order balance out gravity allows things to stay...

Students practice identifying pictures and words that represent different signs and symbols that deal with different types of transportation/travel (enter, exit, push, pull, men, women, caution, no smoking, no swimming, arrows,...

Students conduct experiments with balloons, pennies, marbles and cups to help them understand the concept of centrifugal force or Newton's Law of Motion.

Students construct time lines using historical facts about the development of agriculture. Students research specific dates and events and report their findings to the class. Students tape or glue the sections together sequentially in a...

Students compete in a biathlon of self chosen events. After reviewing the events of a biathlon and triathlon, students perform the activities of a 3,4, or 5 minute biathlon. Results are recorded by comparing the resting and performing...
