Ape Cave Exploration
Students simulate online the formation of Ape Cave, in order to better explain its construction. They observe, illustrate and discuss geological features of this lava tube.
Curated OER
Leyden Jar: Static Electricity
Students experiment with a Leyden Jar, a device that stores electrical charges. A large voltage can be built up in this jar by adding more and more charge. The modern name for this device is a capacitor.
Curated OER
Heat and electrical resistance (Middle, Science)
Learners work in teams to create electrical resistance when studying heat and thermal energy.
Curated OER
Metalloids
Students discuss metalloids, their use as semiconductors, and their impact on the computer industry. They work in groups to create a visual timeline showing the evolution of the computer.
Curated OER
Electricity
First graders become aware of the presence of static electricity. They create static electricity using friction.
Curated OER
State of Matter - Atoms
Students examine and discuss how atoms change from solid to liquid to gas. They inflate a balloon by melting ice that converts to steam, and discuss the results.
Curated OER
Breaker Breaker
Young scholars create a model of a circuit breaker to help them explain how friction causes heat, and how current is carried.
Curated OER
The Federal Period 1780 - 1820
Within this unit, young scholars evaluate the prosperity of a New England town during the Federal Period. Throughout the unit, students are looking for evidence of prosperity by examining artifacts such as inventories, tax lists, and...
Curated OER
Arm and Face Casts - body art
Students study African masks. They also study African American Art and look for its influence in Modern Art. They research and design their own culture.
Curated OER
Chills And Thrills
Students learn what happens when ice melts. They explore melting, and devise ways of speeding up and slowing down the melting process.
Curated OER
Feeding: Fast Food
Students calculate the rates of feeding for the average baleen whale, and compare the energy requirements of whales with humans.
Curated OER
Urban Changes
Students explore how landscapes undergo constant changes with urban development. They plan and build their own "city" by including features that have minimal resource demands to sustain the city itself.
Curated OER
Basic Circuits
Young scholars explain the difference between a closed circuit and an open circuit. They construct simple to more complicated series and parallel circuits. They explain the difference between a series and parallel circuit.
Curated OER
Charlotte's Web
Students create a small web to communicate a message to someone. They examine the types of spiders and how they make their webs. They design and create their own web with their message inside.
Curated OER
Solar Power
Students discover how engineers use solar energy to heat buildings. They investigate the thermal properties of different materials. They evaluate the usefulness of each material.
Curated OER
Teaching Avogadro's Number
Students design an experiment to determine Avogadro's number. Students utilize an ammeter, an electrolytic cell and internet research.
Curated OER
Electrical Energy
Pupils conduct an experiment to find out how well different wires radiate heat when voltage is applied across the wire. They use the results of their experiments to consider how the gauge of the wire and the type of wire affect the...
Curated OER
Capacitors
Students explain the concepts of charge storage and how a capacitor works. They construct a capacitor and measure the stored charge using the appropriate equipment and measurements. They also demonstrate capacitance and how it can be...
Alabama Learning Exchange
Magnet Mania
Young scholars explain how magnets can be used to make some things move without being touched. They explore that electricity in circuits can produce light, heat, sound, and magnetic effects. They create an electronic poster about magnet...
Curated OER
Cool Times with Heat
Students work with thermometers to complete problems about temperature. They investigate cooling patterns, how location affects temperature, and what happens when water having different temperature is mixed. They measure temperature in...
Curated OER
Electricity: Series and Parallel Circuits
Fourth graders explore electricity and electrical circuits. They explore series and parallel circuits using Christmas lights. Students pull lights out of each strand of lights. They observe the results when the light bulb is pulled out....
