How do the laws of motion work in space? Learners explore Newton's laws of motion in different experiments as part of the Christa's Lost Lessons series. They rotate around the room in three stations to experience each law in action using...

In this motion worksheet, students complete motion word problems where they explain and define issues having to do with motion. Students complete 32 problems.

Here is an exciting exploration of a fascinating topic for your emerging ecologists: bird migration! They begin by visiting the US Fish & Wildlife Service website to discover which Arctic birds come to their areas. They are assigned...

In this aqueous equilbria worksheet, students write the solubility product expressions for the given salts. Students determine what affects the solubility of salts. Students calculate the pH of a buffer solution. This worksheet has 14...

In this scientific notation worksheet, students practice calculating area, speed, and volume being sure to write the answers in correct scientific notation. Students complete 11 problems.

In this motion worksheet, students review Newton's Laws of Motion including terms such as inertia and net force. Students complete 11 matching, 7 fill in the blank, and 7 problems to solve.

Students identify the different steps in the scientific method. In this inquiry lesson plan, students determine the mass of the gum after chewing it for sometime. They explain what happens to the lost mass.

On this homework assignment, physics novices draw force diagrams and compute the tension in various situations. Drawings help learners visualize each of six scenarios. This is terrific practice in solving problems with forces.

Students identify the different types of water and explain in what proportions they exist on Earth. They identify and correctly label the parts of the water cycle and how these parts interact with each other. Students identify the...

In this laws of motion activity, students review Newton's 3 laws of motion and compare force and net force. 11 matching, 18 fill in the blank, 6 word problems.

Students discuss the conservation of momentum in a collision between two bumper cars. They are given the equation for momentum. Students then solve problems using the equation for momentum.

In this radon alert:  understanding odds worksheet, 5th graders predict results of rolling dice and record data in a chart, then compare odds of events and occupations, then compare that with radon exposure.

Learners discuss the conservation of momentum in a collision between two bumper cars and an explosion between a bullet and the rifle's kickback, as well as collisions occurring in 2 dimensions and how they are all expressed mathematically.

Ninth graders explain how wind can produce electricity. In this geometry lesson, 9th graders construct their own pin wheel turbine and calculate its power. They discuss the pros and cons of using wind generator.
