Students draw a picture of a bird in a rice field. In this social studies lesson, students then fold a piece of paper so that there are 4 spaces. Students then draw one thing in each square that birds get from the rice field.

Students research the development of remote sensing, various instruments used throughout time and create a time line depicting the history of remote sensing.

Young scholars investigate the concept of exponential functions and how they increase in size over time. They simplify the functions in order to find the solutions that are possible and perform analysis of the curved line that is...

In this scrambled letters learning exercise, students unscramble the letters in 12 words and write the words in the blank spaces. The words will belong to one of these groups: flying, jobs, expressions in business.

Students use data collected by an astronomer to determine the relationship between the time it takes the planet to orbit the sun and the average radius of the planet's orbit around the sun. Students use trial and error to find the...

Students hypothesize the location of the sun in the sky at diferent times of day and at different latitudes. They perform several experiments to provide evidence for their hypothesis. Experiments including observing the sun's position at...

In this math worksheet, students fill in the spaces around the clock with the proper values for each hour of the day. Then they create the hands for hours and minutes.

Young scholars explore the transit of Venus and the information that this minieclipse provides about the distance between the Earth and the sun. They create their own astronomical units.

The pupils are able to use a formula to calculate the volume of cuboids by measuring the length of each of the three dimensions. They also investigate the relationship between milliliters and cubic centimeters.

Learners are asked to visualize three-dimensional figures and apply this visualization to problem solving.

In this identifying the days of the week and months of the year instructional activity, students write the seven days of the week and the first four months of the year.

Students demonstrate dance activities and rhythm activities to whole, half, quarter, and eighth notes. They clap and move to notes individually and in 16 count metric phrases. As they create different 16 count metric phrases and...

Students find that cleaning up can be easy. In this early childhood lesson, students practice fine motor skills while making their classroom more safe. Students create large storage boxes.

A simple activity goes a long way in demonstrating the property of porosity to your rock hounds. They will mass a specimen of dry sandstone and then soak it in a pre-measured amount of water. After seven minutes, they once again measure...

The Mars Global Surveyor spent two years creating a mineral map of the planet Mars using thermal emission spectrometry. To help young astronomers understand this remote sensing instrument, have them simulate how data is collected and...

Get to know our galaxy with an astronomy-themed, hands-on activity. Scholars watch an informative video, answer questions, and construct a model of the Milky Way in order to examine its contents and the distance inside it.  

Earth is a complex structure. Learners explore their home, the earth, using a fun hands-on activity. They create tactile models of the earth using ordinary household materials that represent some common features: land, polar caps,...

Your students will be typing faster than you in no time with the help of this fun game. Similar to the classic Atari game Space Invaders, students must type words to prevent space ships from attacking as they move from the top of the...

A lot went on in Medieval Castles, and they were an obvious symbol of feudal power. Have learners use clay to make a Medieval-style castle to show what they know about Europe during the Dark Ages. This resource provides basic background...

The acceleration rate of a flea jumping works out to 50 times faster than the acceleration rate of the space shuttle. Pupils apply knowledge of acceleration to dot diagrams, velocity-time tables, and word problems. They solve for...

Students gain an understanding of how the powers of 10 and scientific notation can be used to represent the scale of things in the universe. They relate the number of stars in the universe to the number of grains of sand on Earth's beaches.

Investigate the relationships between different deep-sea organisms by DNA sequencing. A worksheet provides instructions for DNA sequencing and space to work. They simulate gel electrophoresis by cutting out paper "DNA strands."...
