Students explore the sense of touch. They investigate unknown solids using the sense of touch. Pupils use their senses of touch to match feely gloves. Students explore body parts, by tracing their hands and feet on paper. They create a...

There's quite a bit in this physical science packet. First, how is heat transferred? Learners read a brief explanation of conduction, convection, and radiation before identifying common occurrences (with pictures) as one of the three....

Learners learn that vibration makes different types of sounds. In this sound lesson, students perform experiments to understand vibrations and high and low pitch sounds. Learners learn that sound travels differently through different...

Students use their sense of touch to identify different types of solids. In this "Mystery Solids" lesson, students feel various balloons filled with items such as rice, flour, salt, beans, etc. They use their senses to come to logical...

These are four classic activities used for instructing upper elementary electricians. The first involves experimenting with the Van de Graaff generator. The second is a series of hands-on experiences with static. In the third activity,...

In this electricity worksheet, students answer 17 questions about charges on atoms, their number of protons and electrons, the attraction of atoms or objects when charged, the electricity between two objects, grounding and insulating.

Students categorize different items into categories of characteristics to demonstrate diversity. In this diversity lesson plan, students then relate the items to people and their diversity.

Fourth graders participate in a demonstration lesson using bubbles in which they determine that air fills the bubbles. Next, they work in small groups as they they experiment with the properties of air at separate work stations. After...

Students engage in a instructional activity that is concerned with the concept of static electricity. They conduct an experiment with balloons and make observations of how it works. The data is collected and written down and they define...

Students conduct investigations to demonstrate and learn that air takes up space, and puts pressure, or pushes, on everything around it. They conduct experiments to learn about feeling air pressure and measuring air pressure. Prior to...

Young scholars are shown proper stance, nocking, targeting, and release techniques of archery. They follow basic safety procedures involved in handling and using archery equipment. Students practice shooting aluminum or fiberglass shaft...

Fourth graders conduct an experiment to get them thinking about the invisibility of air, and to prove that air has weight.

In this writing worksheet, students write an essay that describes what it is like to be in an area of the world where it snows in the winter. They write the essay from the point of view of educating someone who has never seen snow before.
