Students explore the observable properties of matter. They develop two binary classification systems using concrete objects. based on two different properties of the concrete objects.

Students explore magnetism. They make observations of everyday items regarding their magnetic attraction and use their experiences to make a prediction.

Sixth graders create a 3-D Art Box in this design-oriented art project for the 6th grade. Rubric is included for grading purposes. The elements of design are covered and applied (includes line, form, texture, shape, value, color, and...

Learners simulate an archeological excavation to explain how archeologists identify, date, and make inferences about their findings. They explain the importance of spatial and stratigraphic contexts in archaeology.

Learners create three-dimension models demonstrating exponents, multiplying and dividing of fractions, and the use of repeating patterns in tessellations, mirror images, and tiling.

Students create different shapes by putting light on different objects. They change the distance from the object, the light source and angles to make the shadows different. They are to describe the relationship between the light, object...

Students evalute evolutionary theories and processe of Geology. They examine evidence that the movement of continents has had signicicant global impact, major geological events. Students evaluate the forces which shape the lithosphere...

Third graders read a thermometer with accuracy, record observations and data, and infer conceptual meaning. They integrate mathematical charting and graphing skills to organize their data. They explore what happens when they touch or use...

Third graders keep a journal and record the growth of their plant everyday over a two week period. With an observation written down for everyday of the week, they draw a picture of their plant in their journal on Monday and Friday...

Learners identify and describe various organisms living in a pond water environment. They describe the characteristics of living things. Students compare and contrast organisms created by asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction....

Students determine density and hardness of wood samples based on several investigations. In this physical science and music lesson, students visit four centers and perform tests on wood samples to determine densities and hardnesses. They...

Emergine space engineers discover the area of complex geometric shapes. They find that, just as a spacecraft is composed of many smaller parts, so can polygons be broken into smaller shapes.

Third graders identify what plants need to grow. In this agricultural lesson, 3rd graders read the book The Empty Pot and discuss the steps to take when planting a seed. Students plant a seed and water it each day. Students discuss their...

Young scholars examine why diffusion and osmosis happen in an egg cell.  In this diffusion lesson plan students demonstrate a semi permeable membrane.

Decide whether you want to measure in Standard or metric and at what level (i.e. inch, half inch or centimeter, millimeter) and begin practice. Computer will generate a line above the ruler and the player enters the length and checks for...

This lesson is used to instruct students in the use of a standard "English" ruler for determining measurements. The students will read a standard ruler accurately to the nearest 1/16 of an inch. The student will measure different items...

This metric system tutorial is compared to the U.S. standard system so that students can comprehend the measurement of length, volume, mass and the like.

The purpose of this task is for students to measure lengths to the nearest eighth and quarter-inch and to record that information in a line plot. Aligns with 4.MD.B.4 and CCSS.Math.Content.3.MD.B.4 Generate measurement data by measuring...

Students will measure the length, diameter, and mass of twelve cylinders made of the same element. The first set of measurements are made with a standard metric ruler and 0.1g balance. The measurements are then repeated using a Vernier...
