Conservation of Momentum: Marble Collisions
What happens to the momentum of an object when it strikes another object? Scholars roll a marble down a ramp so it collides with another marble. By measuring the speed of each marble before and after the collision, pupils answer this...
PHET
CME Plotting
Young scientists build on their previous knowledge and apply it to coronal mass ejections. By plotting the path of two different coronal mass ejections, they develop an understanding of why most don't collide with Earth.

Floaters and Sinkers
Whatever floats your boat. Young engineers learn about density by measuring the masses and volumes of boxes filled with different materials. Using their knowledge of densities, they hypothesize whether objects with given densities will...
Curated OER
Conversion Factors
In this conversion factors worksheet, students convert 15 measurements from one unit in the SI system of measurement to another unit. Students show their work and indicate the unit of measurement. Conversion factors are given.

Swinging Pendulum
Get into the swing of things. Pupils use a pendulum to demonstrate the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy and back. After measuring the speed of a pendulum and compare it to the calculated theoretical speed, they determine...
Curated OER
What's My BMI?
Young scholars construct the Metric Pyramid from the handout. They use the Metric Pyramid to convert from standard to metric measure and vice versa. They compute their own Body Mass Index.
Curated OER
Measuring Body Fat
In this body fat measurement activity, students will conduct an experiment to determine how the "under-water weighing" technique of measuring body fat works. Once the experiment is complete, students will complete 1 short answer question.
Curated OER
Experiment on Measuring Reaction Rates
Learners investigate the rate of a chemical reaction. In this rate of reactions lesson plan, students use an electronic balance to measure the change in mass of a chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate. They...
Curated OER
Density Lab
In this density worksheet, students measure the mass and volume of assigned objects and calculate the density. They then find the mass and volume of two objects given their densities and volume and mass respectively.
Curated OER
Moon Craters Lab
Students explore characteristics of mass. In this scientific inquiry about mass lesson, students drop rocks of different weights from various heights and record the depth of the "crater" created. Students record their findings on a data...
Curated OER
The Measurement Man
Young scholars explore the measurements of capacity by constructing a creative project in the shape of a man. The man has body parts that represent different units of measurement and can be used to make conversions. This is highly...
Curated OER
Measurement Scavenger Hunt
Students review estimation, measurement, fractions, decimals while familiarizing themselves with a new classroom at the beginning of the year.
Curated OER
Calculating Errors of Measurement
In this errors in measurement worksheet, students answer four questions to show their understanding of errors when taking scientific measurements. They determine the percent error in each problem.
Curated OER
Nature of Science and Measurement Review
In this nature of science and measurement worksheet, learners answer 30 questions about experimental design, pure science vs. applied science, density, metric conversions and dimensional analysis.
Curated OER
Pendulums on the Moon
Students conduct experiments to determine if length, mass, or starting angle has any effect on the rate of a pendulum's swing. They also conduct an experiment online to determine if gravitational force plays a role in the swing. Groups...
Curated OER
Gravity and Falling Objects
Young scholars watch experiments to define gravity and what gravity's function. In this gravity lesson, students watch video segments about experiments conducted with two objects to see what gravity does with different masses.
Curated OER
Measuring the Heat Energy of a Chemical Change
Students investigate the Law of Conservation of Energy and the relationship between heat and temperature. In this heat energy and chemical changes lesson, students observe a candle heating a paper cup of water and make predictions about...
Curated OER
Measure Twice
Students measure a variety of objects using the appropriate measuring tool. In this measurement instructional activity, students explain the importance of accuracy and precision in collecting data. They discuss the difference between the...
Curated OER
Egg Measurement
Students explore measurement and units. They measure eggs to determine their density, mass and percent composition. An inquiry approach is used for students to ascertain the mass.
Curated OER
Lesson-Mass and Weight
Student identify the three stationary positions, on the Earth, on the Moon, and in a house floating atop the cloud layers of Jupiter. They also identify the three orbiting positions, orbiting the Earth, orbiting the Moon, and orbiting...
Curated OER
Rocks, Their Mass and Volume
Middle schoolers measure volume using water displacement and mass using a balance. Once they have calculated these two values they will then calculate density while at the same time working on long division. After the activity and...
Curated OER
Mass vs. Weight
Pupils make generalizations about weight and mass by engaging in two hands-on experiments. In this weight and mass lesson, students weigh both an empty beaker and beakers with various amounts of weight inside of them in order to find the...
