Ourselves
Students use a website to name and compare external body parts of humans and other animals.
Curated OER
Sound and Hearing - Internet Research
Pupils use a website to help them recognize that sound is generated in a variety of ways and from different sources. They determine that sounds vary in tone and loudness, and learn there are different ways to describe sound.
Curated OER
Moving and Growing
Students know that humans and some other animals have bony skeletons inside their body. They know that other animals have skeletons on the outside of their bodies. They explain the role of both kinds of skeletons.
Curated OER
Variation
Learners participate in an online lesson to reinforce the similarities and differences in plants and animals. They classify living things according to observable characteristics.
Curated OER
Gases Around Us
Students participate in an online lesson showing that gases are formed when liquids evaporate and that when a gas is cooled, it condenses to form a liquid, and gases move and flow more easily than liquids, and how gases differ from solids.
Curated OER
Changing State
Students participate in an online lesson to investigate the effects of cooling and heating on water.
Curated OER
Changing Sounds
Students identify how the pitch and the loudness of an instrument can be altered by examining the sounds made by three instruments.
Curated OER
Helping Plants Grow Well
Students explain the effect of water, temperature and light on plant growth.
Curated OER
Micro-organisms
Students examine how micro-organisms are living organisms that are often too small to be seen. They explain that micro-organisms may be beneficial or harmful.
Curated OER
Forces in Action
Students ask questions that can be investigated scientifically. They determine how to plan a fair test by changing one factor while keeping other factors the same, to use measurements to draw conclusions and use scientific knowledge to...
Curated OER
How We See Things
Students explain that mirrors reflect light. They examine how when a beam of light is reflected from a surface, its direction changes.
Curated OER
Changing Circuits
Students participate in an online lesson to explain how to make bulbs brighter or dimmer in a series circuit by changing the number or type of components.
Curated OER
Containers
Students investigate the effect of different container materials on heat transfer; draws a conclusion about the best insulator; and applies concept to a new, seemingly quite different problem.
Curated OER
Blast's Cosmic Carnival
Students, after analyzing the history of a concentrator, model how a Genesis spacecraft concentrator works by playing a game. In groups of three or four, after being given materials to work with, are challenged to roll the rubber balls...
Curated OER
Variation
Students practice sorting living things into groups using their characteristics. Using pictures of leaves and animals, they sort them based on their color and shape and write the objects characteristics under the picture. They share...
Curated OER
Keeping Warm
Students place words describing a range from cold to hot on a scale. Using those words, they identify places on Earth which are cold, hot, freezing or boiling. They practice using and reading a thermometer with three different beakers...
Curated OER
Moving and Growing
Students work with a partner to brainstorm a list of as many human body parts as possible. Using that list, they circle any one of those that are bones. They are shown a model of the human skeleton and practice locating various bones. ...
Curated OER
Keeping Healthy
Students review what the heart does and why the muscles in the body need oxygen. As a class, they measure their pulse rate while they are resting and after they have jogged for three minutes. They are helped by their teacher to convert...
Curated OER
Grouping and Changing Materials
Students feel and observe different types of materials. Using the internet, they sort objects based on the materials they are made from and justify their reasons for putting it in a certain category. They identify objects that could...
Curated OER
Helping plants grow well
Students explore the effect of water, temperature and light on plant growth. Students are asked if they remember the LAW for plants. This is Light, Air(temperature) and Water, which all plants need for growth. Students are divided...
Curated OER
Life cycles
Students identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed dispersal, and germination. Students recap the following information: that plants need light, warmth,...
Curated OER
Changing Sounds
Students identify how the pitch of an instrument can be altered. They complete a worksheet by labeling several images in order of pitch and then fill a bottle with water to create a sound that matches a pitch on a drawn card.
Curated OER
Gases Around Us
Students participate in a whole class discussion about solids, liquids, and gases. Students get involved in a teacher-directed experiment related to solids, liquids, and gases. Students complete worksheet, writing the names of the parts...
