Students experiment in small groups to answer the question, "Is there a relationship between ramps and speed?" They apply a formula to calculate the speed of the cars used in the experiment, complete the associate lab report, and...

Second graders discover that everything is made of matter. they determine the properties of liquids and that like solids, liquids can be grouped or classified according to properties or qualities. they assess that solids have a definite...

For this pressure worksheet, learners find the pressure of objects using the equation for pressure. They find the pressure of air in the atmosphere and the pressure of water in the ocean at different depths.

Students view a video and complete experiments with force and motion.  In this force and motion instructional activity, students examine small pieces and how they affect the motion of a toy car.  Students also experiment with...

Students identify the factors affecting friction. For this physics lesson, students construct their own rocket car and race them. They graph the average speeds and discuss how lubricants affect friction between rubbing surfaces.

Students explore physics. For this science lesson, students discuss physics in their everyday lives. Students complete a physics worksheet.

In this circuits worksheet, students compare voltage, current, and resistance. Students draw a battery with a resistor, switch, and light bulb. This worksheet has 6 short answer, 1 matching, and 6 drawing questions.

Fourth graders, acting as foresters, determine timber volumes as sawtimber or pulpwood for marketing. They find the marketable value of a tree using its diameter and volume.

In this math worksheet, students look for the words in the puzzle that are related to the theme of the word search. The vocabulary and spelling are emphasized.

Students discuss the relationship between technology and manufacturing. They then use their ideas to construct a model of a paper board carton package. Next they view a PowerPoint presentation to learn about the history of packaging...

Third graders use a number of problem solving strategies in this unit of lessons. They determine how to draw and model three-dimensional objects, use co-ordinate systems, determine probability of events, and identify paths of simple...

Students use the internet to find reasons the rainforest is endangered and ways that affects the rest of the world. They read for information, perform experiments, locate rainforests on maps, and write about this ecosystem.

Students discover patterns and write conjectures relating to perimeters and polygons. Working in cooperative learning groups, they use manipulatives and graphic organizers to solve problems then answer a series of questions in which they...

Learners determine the area of two objects by superimposing one on the other. They compare and order the area of different shapes by covering a larger shape with similar smaller ones. They complete these activities as different stations.

Students use seconds, minutes, and hours. They then discuss the size of a thousand. After that they read time in digital or analogue form.

Students use maps and mathematics to determine the appropriate panther population in a given area. In this Florida ecology instructional activity, students research the area requirements of male and female panther and use a map to help...

Students investigate how to find the density of fluids and solids using math. Students also learn how to find the density of regular and irregular shaped objects.

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.

Students study the attributes of liquids. In this science exploration lesson, students participate in a hands-on activity that requires them to examine the volume and shape of liquid.

Students conduct an experiment. In this shadows lesson, students record the height of a meter stick. Students then cast shadows and record their length. Students compare the length of the shadow with the actual height of the meter stick.

Middle schoolers examine various triangles and discuss how similar triangles have sides that are proportional. They utilize an ancient Egyptian method to determine the height of a flagpole.

Students investigate the properties of air through hands-on activities in conjunction with the demonstrations in a 3-2-1 Contact Video.
