Students describe and compare common properties of various classroom materials. In this science/matter lesson, students observe common classroom items and the materials they are made of to complete a list of common properties.

Students discuss micro-organisms. In this micro-organisms instructional activity, students identify which micro-organisms are harmful and which ones are beneficial. Students complete a worksheet which is included in the instructional...

Students explore the concept of immigration. In this immigration lesson, students read literature, analyze photographs, and evaluate political cartoons that reflect feelings about immigration in America during Industrialization....

Students identify geographical features that hindered or promoted settlement in the city of Flagstaff, Arizona. In this settlement lesson plan, students write a summary of what they learned and identify geographical features on a map.

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.

Encourage children to take full advantage of their school's playground with this fun scavenger hunt activity. Including ten separate activities, from climbing across the monkey bars to playing hopscotch with a friend, this resource will...

Fourth graders, when working with magnets, make a prediction about what will happen if you put two ring magnets on an upright pencil, with 100% accuracy. They also experiment with magnets on poles to see which one pushes the other one away.

Fourth graders investigate friction as a force that is present around us. They observe as a ball is rolled on different surfaces and stopped before discussing what happens. Using different surfaces, they make predictions as to what type...

Learners run through an obstacle course to practice jumping, vaulting, pull-ups, and other physical endeavors. The obstacles are set up in a gymnasium, and students rotate through each task.

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 demonstrate an awareness of the types of simple machines and classify common objects in relation to the simple machines involved.

Students investigate how to make a lever. In this construction lesson plan, students explore how to construct a lever using dog and tail templates, cardboard, and fasteners. Students construct their simple machine in order to learn about...

Students observe the motion of both a pendulum and a spring pendulum . They then explain the differences and the similarities between the two types of motions.

Eighth graders distinguish between and apply Newton's Laws. They take a quiz reviewing Kinetic and Potential Energy. Students explain that they have just demonstrated Newton's three laws of motion. They also explain what forces are...

Learners explore modeling of geologic structures in experiments. They study how compressive and tensile forces produce these structures. The compression makes the flatlying strata shorter and tension make the strata longer.

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 practice the 4 question strategy to form more questions and develop further experiments. The four questions are engage, explore, explain, and elaborate. They use the 4 question strategy on an investigation involving the mass...
