Does the Use of Increased Amounts of Fertilizer Accelerate Seed Germination?

Pass along the knowledge of the great Sir Isaac Newton with this learning exercise on the laws of motion. Including three separate problems, each involving multiple parts and calculations, this resource is a great way to monitor...

Here's a five-star lesson plan in which inquisitors conduct sophisticated experimentation with cellular respiration in plant seeds. Placing seeds in a closed system they measure the amount carbon dioxide produced and relate it to...

A nine-page physics resource supports your lesson on acceleration. A step-by-step lesson plan walks you through the materials you need, the background information, steps for leading experimentation, and the explanation of the results....

Take a look at acceleration within the context of automotive technology. They vary the mass on a toy car and run it down a ramp, exploring Newton's second law of motion. Though this is a classic lab activity, you will appreciate the...

Surely you must appreciate when a PowerPoint comes complete with teachers' notes. This brief, but beautiful presentation provides narration for you to use with each slide. The topic is plant propagation from seed. Photos, diagrams, and...

Watch your classes grow during as they experiment with science and mathematics! Learners collect data on percent of seed germination over a two-week period. They graph their results and create a report analyzing their findings.

Students examine how seeds germinate in a culture.  In this germination lesson students germinate seeds in gelatin and observe the growth of the plant.

Scholars build robotic arms that swing back and forth and use them to collect velocity and acceleration data. To analyze the results, pupils compare data to the equations for angular velocity and centripetal acceleration.

The amount of land available for agriculture consists of only 1/32 of the surface of the earth. The final instructional activity in a five-part agriculture series encourages applying the previous lessons to a global perspective on...

What makes a clock tick or a bulb light up? The concept of work is explained to a backdrop of clever animation. Physics fans learn that the amount of work equals the product of the force and distance, and that the rate equals the amount...
