Students use balloons and string to duplicate Bernoulli's Principle of wing shape and its affect on liftoff.

Students explore how to work cooperatively with a partner.

Students explore volume and pressure. Through an activity, students discover what happens in situations when volume is increased but no additional air is able to enter the enclosed space. Students create models and explain their...

Young scholars use inquiry and observation to explore Newton's third law of motion: for every action there is a reaction. For this physics lesson, students rotate through six stations set up with materials and picture directions...

Students see the difference between weight and mass when they examine the method of measuring each of them.

Students observe an earthquake demonstration. They research an earthquake and use color dots to plot the location of each of their earthquakes on the large map.

In this comprehension worksheet, students read a short selection about "simple machines" and answer 4 short answer questions based on the selection.

Third graders make parachutes to learn about gravity and the science process. For this gravity lesson, 3rd graders create parachutes and observe their flight in air. Students discuss wind and gravity for the activity.

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.

Second graders investigate insects and non-insects by creating their own definitions. They complete a series of activities relating to insects.

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.

Students understand that an aquifer can become a non-renewable resource if it is not used wisely. Students do an experiment that recreates an aquifer in the classroom.

Fourth graders pour three cups of sand on the top of a plastic table near the edge. They tap the table lightly with the rubber mallet. When they tap the table lightly they see the sand ump into the air.

Students practice fitness components at the beginning of class.

Young scholars demonstrate proper space awareness by moving safely away from others in the playing area.

Young scholars explore simple machines and demonstrate thier acquired understanding by building a simple machine.

Students 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 use a website to name and compare external body parts of humans and other animals.

Students use a website to help them recognize that sound is generated in a variety of ways and from different sources. They determine that sounds vary in tone and loudness, and learn there are different ways to describe sound.

Students know that humans and some other animals have bony skeletons inside their body. They know that other animals have skeletons on the outside of their bodies. They explain the role of both kinds of skeletons.

Students participate in an online lesson plan to explain the conductivity of different materials and the effect of changing the power source.

Students participate in an online lesson to reinforce the similarities and differences in plants and animals. They classify living things according to observable characteristics.

Students participate in an online lesson showing that gases are formed when liquids evaporate and that when a gas is cooled, it condenses to form a liquid, and gases move and flow more easily than liquids, and how gases differ from solids.

Students participate in an online lesson to investigate the effects of cooling and heating on water.
