In this chemical solutions worksheet, students determine the molecular weight of a substance, determine the boiling and freezing point of solutions, and determine molarity of a solution. This worksheet has 3 problems to solve.

In this metric worksheet, students complete 28 different metric calculations consisting of density, volume, mass, length, temperature, and time.

In this physical world activity, students review concepts relating to the chemical and physical properties of matter, density of matter, and if matter is a solid, liquid, or gas. This activity has 9 terms in a word puzzle, 4 true or...

Learners explain how melting glaciers affect global warming. In this earth science lesson, students investigate the change in ice density as it melts. They discuss the human and environmental impact of rising sea levels.

Students observe the freezing times and temperatures of water with varying levels of salinity. They determine how icebergs form, how they act, and what they may be made of. They discover that salinity level affects the time it takes...

In this chemistry review worksheet, students review terms and concepts covered. Students practice metric conversions, factor labeling, temperature conversions, heat calculations, atomic structure, and gas laws. This worksheet has 3...

Although this is a science lesson, it can be adapted to help meet Common Core standards in math as well. Starting scientists describe physical properties of objects and explore three forms of water. To address the Common Core, they can...

Students discover the origin of the Great Ocean Conveyor. They participate in a demonstration showing how salinity and temperature affect water density. They also examine the new sea ice that forms every winter.

Students investigate the properties of solids, liquids and gases. In this states of matter lesson plan, students observe dry ice and its characteristics. They calculate the density of dry ice and observe the sublimation of the dry ice...

In this chemistry worksheet, students determine the vapor pressure of a solution when dissolved in water at a set temperature. Then they determine the vapor pressure of this solution at a higher temperature. Students also explain the...

Students conduct an experiment that shows them how salt water allows things to float. In this salt water lesson plan, students mix ingredients together to create salt water and observe how it makes the oceans dense. They then interpret...

Students identify the contents of a glacier like those found in Patagonia. They construct a mini glacier model in class. Students compare and contrast the classroom model with Patagonian glaciers. They label specific parts of the...

For this solutions worksheet, students calculate molality and mole fraction. Students define colligative property and determine what affects the solubility of gas in solvents. This worksheet has 2 short answer questions and 9 problems to...

In this 3rd grade science worksheet, 3rd graders complete a total of 25 multiple choice questions related to grade 3 concepts. An answer key is given.

Students observe a demonstration on the role of thermal conductivity in heat transfer.  In this thermal conductivity lesson, students design and conduct an experiment to compare the thermal conductivity of four substances....

Students conduct an experiment.  In this salinity lesson, students learn about sea ice, why it is important and how changing amounts can affect the sea.  Students conduct an experiment to find out the effects of salinity on the...

In this errors in measurement worksheet, students answer four questions to show their understanding of errors when taking scientific measurements. They determine the percent error in each problem.

Students research about the importance of sea ice to world climate and sea organisms. In this earth science lesson, students create a model of present and future Arctic sea ice communities. They discuss how ice melting affects...

Students 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.

Why does ice float? In this article answer that question by learning about the topics of Specific heat capacity, evaporative cooling, and heat of vaporization of water.

Students investigate water by estimating how long it takes to freeze, then see if the ice cube will float in water, and eventually work with other items to see if they sink or float in water.

Engage students in the study of the ocean and saltwater with these activities. Students will see that saltwater has different physical properties than freshwater - mainly density. This lesson can serve as a springboard into other...

An overview of scientist Henry Cavendish's accomplishments. Discusses his achievements, primarily his work with quantitative measurements.
