Creating the Ideal Cargo Boat
Students build boats out of clay to test the buoyancy of the boat in water. Students break into pairs and construct their boat to specific guide lines, then experiment with their boat in the water.
Curated OER
Column Chromatography
Students research the mechanics of liquid chromatography. In this technology lesson, students calculate the concentration of unknown samples. They write a report about their research and lab results.
Curated OER
Gravity Gets You Down
Learners design an experiment to investigate how objects with different masses fall. In this physics lesson plan, students predict how these objects will fall in a vacuum tube. They write a report explaining experimental results and...
Curated OER
Trajectory and Range of a Projectile
Students investigate the factors affecting projectile trajectory. In this physics lesson plan, students calculate the range, time and speed of projectiles using mathematical equations.
Curated OER
Scientific Method
Students explore how to use the scientific method to solve problems. For this scientific lesson students define terms, apply the method to problems and search the internet and find sites that cover the scientific method.
Curated OER
The Behavior of Ants
Students use the steps of the Scientific Method to develop and test their own ideas through experimentation with ants.

Teaching about Data Interpretation
Young scholars explore a variety of relevant lake water chemistry questions, compose responses, and present their results in a poster format. They, in pairs, answer questions about lake chemistry which are imbedded in this plan.
Curated OER
GENTLE JAWS?
Young scholars experiment with carrying eggs to simulate a mother crocodile's gentle grip as she carries her eggs/young. They compare different modern tools to the jaws of a crocodile.
Curated OER
Ecosystems
Seventh graders create a closed ecosystem and place it where is it visible to others in the school. They label it with posters describing the interdependence of living things in the ecosystem. They discuss what might happen to the...
Curated OER
How Hazardous Substances Affect People
Students examine the health effects of hazardous waste on people. They work together to complete an experiment in which worms are exposed to chemicals. They discuss the results of the test.
Curated OER
How Does Evolution Work?
Students investigate how natural selection influences evolution. They complete a hands-on lab simulation of natural selection, and replicate a real experiment and examine the interplay between selection factors in a population of guppies.
