Curated OER
Measure for Measure: Time & Temperature
Students examine scientific inquiry. For this time and temperature lesson students create a template to solve scientific problems and work through a science problem.
Curated OER
What Is the Temperature? (A)
In this thermometer worksheet, students analyze 8 thermometers and write the temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. No conversions will be necessary.
Curated OER
Find the Temperature
In this temperature gauge instructional activity, students examine 4 temperature gauges and record the temperatures shown on each of them.
Curated OER
Find the Temperature 2
In this temperature gauge learning exercise, students examine 4 temperature gauges and record the temperatures shown on each of them.

Counting on Measurement
First graders explore measurement. They measure by counting non-standard units. Students use a variety of non-standard units to predict and measure volume of various containers using rice.
Curated OER
Temperature in the Sun or Shade of the Desert
Third graders use thermometers to measure the air temperature in several
places around the school and then return to the classroom to record the data. They create a bar graph and discuss their findings about the air temperature in the...
Curated OER
Measuring Calories
Learners investigate what a calorie is and how and why we measure them. They conduct an experiment to compare the calories of a peanut and a mini-marshmallow, and explain and discuss how calories are directly related to the amount of...
Curated OER
Hypothermia: Temperature Changes Under Varying Conditions
Students conduct an experiment to determine what type of clothing would be most suitable for outdoor activities. They determine the temperature changes of the skin under various wet clothing materials and graph the temperature changes. ...
Curated OER
Temperature in a Cultural Context
Fourth graders investigate the effects of temperature on Native American lifestyle and culture. In small groups they conduct research on cultural practices showing a connection to the climate and create a poster displaying their...
Curated OER
Measuring Humidity
Students measure humidity in the classroom. In this weather lesson, students use a psychrometer to measure the humidity in the classroom. Students complete a lab packet.
Curated OER
What Can We Measure about Chemicals?
For this measuring chemicals worksheet, students determine the accuracy and precision of measurements and distinguish between the two. They find the percent composition of compounds, the molar mass of compounds and the volume of gases at...
Curated OER
Relationships: Pressure, Volume and Temperature
Tenth graders investigate the relationships of pressure and volume and pressure and temperature of gases. In this gases lesson plan, 10th graders use an inflated balloon to show the relationship between volume and temperature of the air...
Alabama Learning Exchange
Cosmic Measurements
Students develop two units of measurement to relate to the astronomical unit and the light year. In this astronomy lesson, students use a Twizzler to develop a measurement unit similar to the astronomical unit. They use a moving object,...
Curated OER
Measuring Pots
Young scholars use an activity sheet to construct analogies about possible function of ancient or historic ceramics and compute circumference from a section of a circle as they study measuring pots.
Curated OER
Temperature School
Pupils observ the cooling and warming of room temperature, hot, and ice cold cans of water by measuring the change in temperature over time. They then attempt to develop explanations for the observations made and apply their findings to...
Curated OER
Introducing Temperature Measurement
Pupils read a thermometer, associate weather conditions and seasons with temperature changes and keep a record of daily temperature.
Curated OER
Measuring Liquid Volume & Reading Thermometers
In this liquid volume worksheet, students first practice measuring liquid volume by determining what volume is indicated on each of the graduated cylinders in milliliters for the first nine problems. Then they determine the temperature...
Curated OER
Keeping Warm
There are five separate lessons about heat in this collection of slides. Young scientists learn how to use a thermometer to measure temperature, and they experiment with insulators. You can use one of these lessons each day for a full...
Chicago Botanic Garden
Historical Climate Cycles
Scientists use ice core samples to obtain temperatures of the earth from 400,000 years ago! The third of five lessons instructs pupils to interpret historical climate data to see changes over time. In part I, participants interpret...

What Is Heat?
If objects have no heat, how do they can gain and lose it? Scholars experiment with heat, temperature, and specific heat of various substances. They create definitions for these terms based on their own conclusions to complete the fourth...
Urbana School District
Thermodynamics
Entropy, it isn't what it used to be. Presentation includes kinetic-molecular theory, heat and internal energy, thermal equilibrium, temperature scales, laws of thermodynamics, entropy, latent heat of fusion, specific heat, calorimetry,...

Why Does it Get Colder on a Clear Night than a Cloudy Night?
Clouds are nature's insulator! A lab investigation asks learners to use an infrared thermometer to measure differences in infrared temperatures. They find that pointing the thermometer at a cloud has a much different result than pointing...
PBS
Terrific Trees
Engage in a shady activity to practice measurement techniques. Classes venture outside to collect measurements of various trees, using different strategies to measure the height, trunk circumference, width, and crown size. Then they...
Curated OER
What Is The temperature?
Young scholars use a thermometer to measure temperature changes. They measure temperatures indoors and out, and graph the information.
