Seasons' Journey : Putting it All Together
Third graders complete a diagram of the revolution of the earth around the sun and write a one paragraph explanation of the factors that cause seasons.
Curated OER
Jell-O Optics
Learners observe an activity with Jell-O to learn about optics. In this investigative lesson students fill out a handout on the activity that helps them to investigate the index of refraction and the speed of light.
Curated OER
What is a Ruminant?
Students examine the way bison eat and digest their food. Using a diagram, they follow the food from one compartment to the next. They discover that bison are ruminants and discuss why the bison need four stomachs.
Physics LAB
Spherical Mirrors
In this mirrors worksheet, students identify the equation that describes the relationship between the mirror's focal length and its radius. Students compare images reflected through concave mirrors and different distances. This worksheet...
