Curated OER
Sixth Grade Science Test
For this science activity, 6th graders take a multiple choice quiz about matter, properties, electricity, and more. Students complete 30 questions total.
Curated OER
Hurricanes
Students state and directly experience two laws of Physics (Law of Gravity, Law of Centrifugal Force) that affect weather. They explain the observations made when using the "hurricane machine" and relate them to other events and phenomenon.
Curated OER
Whale Fast Food Conversions
Students calculate feeding rates of whales and compare this to the feeding rates of humans.
Curated OER
Estimating the Live Mass of Dinosaurs
Learners estimate the live mass of dinosaurs. Using dinosaur and modern animal models, students use simple displacement methods to calculate the volume of the models. They calculate the masses of each model. Learners compare the...
Curated OER
Emulsion_ Compulsion
Students experiment with common household products to determine the properties of emulsions and how they fit into the classifications of matter through this series of lessons.
Curated OER
Wet Weather, Wet Climate
Students discover the differences between weather and climate in this long-term lesson introduction. They create rain gauges and practice reading rainfall measurements, view a website showing the cloud cover in their location and draw...
Curated OER
Science Word Search
In this science worksheet, students look for the words that are related to the theme of the sheet in the word search. They also work on spelling skills.
Curated OER
Herb is the Word
Learners conduct an experiment to determine how different soils affect plant growth over a six-week period. After determining the physical properties of different types of soil, students plant various types of seeds into the soil...
Curated OER
Atoms, Kinetic Theory, Solids and Fluids
Students identify and describe the building blocks that make up an atom. They also compare the ages of atoms to the ages of the materials they compose,as well as, give examples that illustrate the small size of atoms.
Curated OER
Conservation Station
Second graders, in groups, measure the volume of four containers that vary in shape and size.
Curated OER
Milk: A Practical Application
Students examine the impact of the physical and chemical properties of milk and its use as an important food.
Curated OER
Science: Hurricanes As Heat Engines
Students conduct Internet research to track the path of Hurricane Rita. They record the sea surface temperature of the Gulf of Mexico during and after the hurricane and draw conclusions about how hurricanes extract heat energy from the...
Curated OER
Coral Bleaching in the Caribbean
Students use authentic satellite data on the NASA website to determine when the sea surface temperature meets the criteria to induce coral bleaching.
Curated OER
Testing for Conductivity
Students test the conductivity of selected liquids and solids. They test the circuit by touching the two free ends of the wires together and add salt little by little recording the data after each addition. Finally, students predict...
Curated OER
Movement of Fronts
Students use a demonstration in order to learn abou the movement of weather fronts.
Curated OER
The Portable Niche
Third graders, in groups, research animals, plants, and conditions found in ecosystems.
Curated OER
Physical Difference and Classification
Students use a microscope and observation skills to compare and contrast several physical properties and develop a classification system.
Curated OER
Planning a Tourist Resort
Learners work in teams of 2 to complete the presentation portion of the assignment. They may be required to work alone or may work with their partner to complete the "Board Member's Responses."
Curated OER
Natural Hazards
Students evaluate the hazards of naturally occurring events. After watching a video concerning safety hazards, students work in groups to discuss the safety issues involved in taking a trip to a mountainous region. Recommendations are...
Curated OER
Types of Reactions
For this reactions worksheet, high schoolers describe combustion as either exothermal or endothermal. Students balance reactions and label the types of reactions. This worksheet has 1 multiple choice, 2 short answer, and 10 problem...
Curated OER
Physics Post-Lab
Learners explore physics. In this science lesson, students discuss physics in their everyday lives. Learners complete a physics worksheet.
Curated OER
Ocean Microstructure Lesson Plan
Pupils explore the microstructure of the ocean by analyzing graphs created by Dr. Mike Gregg of the University of Washington Applied Physics Laboratory during the EPIC 2001 research cruise on the Ronald H. Brown NOAA vessel.
Curated OER
What's the Matter with My Jell-o?
Young scholars work in teams of four as they conduct four controlled Jell-O experiments over a two-day period. The Family Page extends this learning to the community by providing families with challenges to explore at home.
