Make sure your scientists are reporting their work effectively by providing them with a reference for their lab reports. The first few pages of this resource detail each element of a lab report, and the last few pages provide an example...

Assist your class with understanding collisions as they apply the Law of Conservation of Momentum. Pupils measure the momentum before and after manipulation of two objects so that one strikes another in an inelastic collision. The lesson...

Sixth in a series of 36, this lesson focuses on gases and their behavior in given situations. Learners review the states of matter and then focus on gases, specifically learning Boyle's, Charles's, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's, and Graham's...

Learners explain historical findings such as Rutherford and Bohr's contributions, explain wave particle duality, and formulate Heinsenberg's uncertainty principle. They also draw s, p, and d orbitals, explain more historical findings,...

This heady calculus text covers the subjects of differential and integral calculus with rigorous detail, culminating in a chapter of physics and engineering applications. A particular emphasis on classic proof meshes with modern graphs,...

Do you want to hear a joke about nitrogen and oxygen? NO. We all know there is oxygen in the air and that plants produce oxygen, but how was it discovered? Scholars read a handout, answer questions, and analyze material in the...

Provides explanations of terms used in science: fact, deductive inference, inductive inference, hypothesis, multiple working hypotheses, theory, evidence, Ockham's Razor, natural law, and paradigm.

A very detailed look at gravitational force and the many theories that have been put forward to try to explain it. Includes lots of illustrations.

Biography of Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727), a scientist whose impact is felt in many disciplines today. His laws of motion are integral to basic physics, and he co-invented calculus.

Provides a long list of physics formulas for easy reference.

A lengthy page covering most all the gas laws. Each law is described in words and stated as an equation. The use of each law in solving problems is demonstrated. Some problem-solving tips are provided. There are 23 practice problems with...

Provides an overview of the nineteen natural laws proposed by Thomas Hobbes as a framework for guiding understanding of the difference between right and wrong.

Profile of Isaac Newton, with a description of his scientific theories, the impact he had on the world of science in his day, and the influence his ideas still have in the world today.

James Prescott Joule experimented with engines, electricity and heat throughout his life. Joule's findings resulted in his development of the mechanical theory of heat and Joule's law, which quantitatively describes the rate at which...

Here you can find a detailed overview of the scientific method. Content addresses what the scientific method is, its four steps, some common mistakes when applying the scientific method, and more.
