In this Scientific Method worksheet, students identify controls and variables given hypothetical situations taking place in Bikini Bottom. Students draw conclusions form the information they gathered in the experiments.

In this experimental design worksheet, students use four questions to brainstorm about an experiment. The questions include the materials, the hypothesis and the independent and dependent variables.

In this experimental design worksheet, students brainstorm on an experiment to do with mice. They identify the materials available, the hypothesis and the independent and dependent variables.

Pupils act as chief research scientists with the responsibility of testing a new drug. Students design a controlled experiment to test a hypothetical experimental drug. Pupils write a clear, concise, and detailed plan to present to a...

In this project worksheet, students answer four questions about their experimental design. This includes their materials available, the action of their materials and their independent and dependent variable.

In this earth science instructional activity on sunlight and soil, learners use data collected in a chart to construct two graphs. Following, they answer five questions as they relate to the experiment performed.

Learners experiment with solutions.  In this mixtures and solutions science lesson, students work in groups of three to perform an experiment. Learners place a sugar cube in three glasses, and observe and record the different rates...

Young chemists have unknown compounds they need to sort. Performing three different tests on each, the chemical behaviors they observe become the basis for data analysis. 

The fifth lesson of seven in the series outlines an in-depth analysis of the periodic table. After direct instruction, pupils take turns practicing in the group before beginning independent study. The assessments include a...

Students' recognize the various roles of predicting in science. Students' practice making and interpreting predictions; experimenting to test their hypotheses; and refine their predictions based on observation and experimentation....

Students conduct an experiment in small groups, draw conclusions about the amount heat of a compound achieves and practice their data analysis skills.

Young scholars gain experience in designing an experiment and use logic in selecting specific tests for unknowns. Students recognize the use of spreadsheets in helping one to make clear comparisons.

Students investigate friction by manipulating some of the variables affecting it. In this inquiry lesson, students design their own experiment. They create a video about it and share it to class.

Students use the scientific method to conduct an experiment to test how a ball bounces. In this inquiry-based physical science and scientific method instructional activity, students drop a ball from specified heights and record the...

Twelfth graders study the relationships of the 3 variables in Newton's Second Law. They design an experiment to test the relationships among the variables. Students work cooperatively with members of a team. They also analyze data to...

Fifth graders identify, through experimentation, what properties of substance are, determine what variables tested will be, identify constants and variables of experiment, conduct experiment to conclusion with measurable, recorded...

Students explore the active layer above permafrost and investigate various factors on the insulation value of the active layer.  In this energy transfer instructional activity, students conduct and experiment to determine the...

For this scientific investigation worksheet, students use "magic tubes" to make observations, hypothesize, study variables in experiments, write procedures, and draw conclusions.

Students experiment with a steel ball and matchbox car to find the effects of force and motion. In this force and motion lesson, students assemble a track, conduct experiments and record on a shoot the loop worksheet. Students change the...

In this rate of solution worksheet, learners determine how quickly a solute dissolves in a solvent by testing one independent variable such as temperature, particle size or the amount of stirring. Students design their experiments and...

Young scholars investigate the strength of different adhesives. In this physical science lesson, students compare the force needed to peel adhesive tapes from a surface. They analyze collected data and make a generalization.

Young scholars investigate the concept of a shadow. They design a tool to create shadows for an experiment. They make observations and record the size and shape of shadows. The lesson contains background information for the teacher to...

Eighth graders explore variables that influence the rate of erosion due to the 4 major agents. They work as a group and practice conducting experiments according to the scientific method. Students comprehend that communicating ideas...

Fifth graders utilize basic physics concepts to calculate speed of an object set in motion from various heights. In this basic physics lesson, 5th graders make observations, calculations, record data, and conclusions throughout experiment.
