Curated OER
Introduction to Volcanoes
Students develop a basic understanding of volcanoes. They watch a PowerPoint Presentation which introduces three types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and composite volcanoes.
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore the three main forms of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. They examine concrete examples of each, using their five senses and "experimenting" to find differences in them. They find pictures of each, cut them out and past...
Curated OER
Human Impact on the Environment and Pollution
Students illustrate the impact humans have on the environment through analogies and models. They observe demonstrations of human impact and pollution and create a composite picture of how people can have an impact on their environment.
Curated OER
The Investigation Of The Taste Buds
Students explore the sense of taste. In this biology lesson plan, students investigate the sense of tastes as they experience salty, sour, bitter, and sweet tastes. Students then discover how taste buds do their job.
Curated OER
Learning about air
Students read a book and have a class discussion about the air around them. In this air lesson plan, students learn about properties of air, and discuss other gases they have observed.
Curated OER
Exploring Rocks
Students recognize differences in the size, shape, texture, and color of different rocks. In this rocks lesson plan, students also learn and repeat back how a volcano erupts and make one out of a toilet paper tube.

The Nature of Chemical Change: Acting Out An Example
Students illustrate the molecular nature of matter and show that chemical change involves alteration of molecules.
Curated OER
The Nature of Chemical Change: Acting Out an Example
Young scholars identify the signs that a chemical reaction took place. In this chemistry instructional activity, students role play the movement of different molecules of matter. They classify matter according to their properties.
Curated OER
Chemistry in the Kitchen
Students, in groups, combine given materials from an everyday kitchen until a chemical reaction occurs and record the reaction time.
Curated OER
Observing Reactions
Students use the scientific method to complete to experiments that have visible reactions. In this visible reaction instructional activity, students participate in an experiment with melting ice and one with inflating a balloon. Students...
Curated OER
Sampling Carbon Dioxide
Students perform an experiment to determine which source of gas (their breath, exhaust from a car, or the air in the classroom) has a greater concentration of carbon dioxide. Students compare the colors of BTB solutions after...
Curated OER
How Do Car Engines Work?
Students perform an experiment which simulates what happens inside an internal combustion engine. They explain how the chemical reaction they witnessed is similar to what happens inside the car engine.
Curated OER
Car Engines
Students create piston systems and explore the conversion of linear to rotary motion that propels a car. In this motion lesson, students build and test a model piston/crankshift system and discover why there is a maximum limit to how...
Curated OER
Indicators For Acids and Bases
Fourth graders compare the color of cabbage water when acids and bases are mixed in. In this acids and bases lesson plan, 4th graders use cabbage water and mix in acids and bases that the teacher prepares before hand. They observe the...
Curated OER
Gases Lighter and Heavier than Air
Young scholars explore the concept of air density. In this air density lesson, students fill balloons with helium and carbon dioxide. Young scholars determine which gases are heavier or lighter than air.
Curated OER
Liquid Conductors
Students identify liquids as conductors. In this circuits lesson, students build a circuit, then use various liquids to complete the circuit, and determine which liquids successfully conduct electricity.
Curated OER
Understanding Volcanoes
Students create a model volcano in groups, and discuss what each part of the model represents as they go along. In this volcano lesson, students come back together as a whole group and discuss what group did the best work, according to...
Curated OER
Soil Acidity and Leaching
Young scholars are introduced to the concept of acids and bases and arouse curiosity about acids and bases in daily life. They are introduced to the measurement of soil pH. Pupils are introduced to the effect of soil pH on nutrient...
Curated OER
Effect of pH on the Organisms of Tule Ponds At Tyson Lagoon
In this aquatic organism learning exercise, students measure the pH of household solutions and of pond water samples. They compare these to tolerance charts for aquatic macro-invertebrates to complete 5 charts or short answer questions.
Curated OER
Acids, Bases, Acid-Base Reactions
In this chemistry worksheet, students read and study the chapter to answer 110 problem solving and short answer questions related to acids and bases.
Curated OER
pH Scale, acids and bases
Eighth graders define the pH scale, acids and bases. They distinguish between acidic and basic solutions using litmus paper. Students review simple chemical formulas. They define the subscript and coefficient in terms of chemical...
Curated OER
The Difference Between Acids and Bases Using Different Indicators
Young scholars identify the differences between acids and bases. In this acids and bases lesson plan, students identify and distinguish between acids and bases. They use household products to test the ph levels. They test the ph levels...
Curated OER
Fun With Chemical Changes
Fifth graders observe and identify the differences between chemical and physical changes. In small groups they mix different substances together in glass beakers, and identify which had a chemical change, supporting their statements...
