Metric System Challenge
In this measurement worksheet, students complete each of the statements with the correct word related to the metric system. Then they match each letter marked with a number to those at the bottom of the sheet to complete the answer to...
Curated OER
Cookie Caper
Students determine the best chocolate chip cookie. In this comparison investigation, students create a quantitative scientific study to determine the best chocolate chip cookie using the steps of the scientific method.
Curated OER
Gravity, Seasons, and Time
In this Earth worksheet, students read about Earth's gravity, the reason the Earth has seasons, and time zones. Then students complete 21 multiple choice, 2 true or false, and 1 short answer question.
Curated OER
Elementary Exploration: Liquids
Pupils study the attributes of liquids. In this science exploration lesson plan, students participate in a hands-on activity that requires them to examine the volume and shape of liquid.
Curated OER
Boat Design
Students build a boat and make predictions. In this geometry lesson, students design a cargo boat. They must show that the boat they designed can carry the cargo.
Curated OER
Robo-Pull
Students solve linear equations using two steps. In this algebra lesson, students add, subtract, multiply and divide to solve linear equations. They apply concepts of equations to a robot pulling cargo.
Curated OER
Heavy Ice: Day Five
Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. In this density lesson, students examine a list of items and discuss whether they will sink or float and then determine their density. Students examine the objects over five days...
Curated OER
Science Lesson Plans
Students conduct a variety of exploration activities on various science topics. For this science lesson outline, students design a cell encapsulation to hold a specific type of medicine. They give examples of physical and chemical...
Curated OER
Density Of A Material
Students determine the density of a material created in the laboratory and observe physical and chemical changes. They engage in a lab activity, and answer questions on a worksheet imbedded in this plan.
Curated OER
Hot Food
Students compare and contrast photosynthesis and chemosynthesis as processes that provide energy to biological communities. They investigate the energy content of hydrocarbons used in coral communities.
Curated OER
Calorimetry
Students investigate calorimetry and set up equipment to measure calories. In this calorimetry lesson plan, students make a calorimeter and compare large amounts of heated water with small amounts to show the difference in calories....

Density Column Lab - Part 2
Groups suspend objects within layers of liquids to determine the densities of different liquids and compare them to the densities of objects calculated in Part 1. The groups then carefully test their calculations by layering the liquids...
Curated OER
To Float or Not to Float - A Lesson on Density
Students define density in their own words. In this physics lesson, students calculate density using mass and volume. They explain why some objects sink and some float.
Curated OER
Qualitative Vs. Quantitative
Fourth graders examine the difference between qualitative and quantitative observations by doing a simple lab activity. This lesson can be used at any grade level. It involves the basic observation process skill.
Curated OER
CheMATHstry That Sticks Right to You
Students find the percent composition of sugar in the gum. In this chemistry instructional activity, students calculate percent error from the experiment. They use dimensional analysis to convert between units.
Curated OER
What Floats Your Boat?
Learners discover the Archimedes principle through a buoyancy experiment. They measure the water displacement of a lump a clay which is denser than water then reshape the clay into a bowl which floats but displaces more water.
Curated OER
Permeability of Earth Materials
Students observe and classify the permeability of a variety of materials.
Curated OER
How Dense Are You?
Young scholars examine how density is a value that describes what type of a material an object is made of regardless of its shape or size.
Curated OER
Testing Termites to Discover
Students design an experiment to discover how termites respond to their environment.
