The Scientific Method
In this scientific method worksheet, students read over the basic steps of the scientific method and then apply those steps to a specific example. This worksheet has 8 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Liquid Layers
In this density worksheet, young scholars investigate what will happen when various liquids with different densities are put into the same container. They hypothesis and make observations. Students answer 4 questions about their...
Curated OER
Metric Mania
Young scholars observe how to measure in metric units. In this investigative lesson students compare different units of volume to see how things are measured.
Curated OER
Metrics in the Home and in the Store
Students investigate metric measurement. In this geometry lesson plan, students discover metric measurements of everyday objects as they compare them to US measurements.

Thirsty Rocks: Please "Porous" a Drink!
A simple activity goes a long way in demonstrating the property of porosity to your rock hounds. They will mass a specimen of dry sandstone and then soak it in a pre-measured amount of water. After seven minutes, they once again measure...

The Law of Conservation of Matter
The Law of Conservation of Matter can be complex for young scientists to fully grasp. Use this experiment to help simplify the process as pupils perform two experiments to determine mass: one that melts a substance and the other that...
Curated OER
Determining Liquid Densities
Students practice determining liquid densities in a short, hands-on lab activity. Students use a graduated cylinder to measure out 100 milliliters of a liquid, find its mass using a balance, and record measurements in a data table....
Curated OER
Making Sense of Density
Young scholars identify the concepts of density, mass, and volume that define the property of a substance. They also determine that the properties of materials, such as, density and volume, can be compared and measured by using rulers,...
Curated OER
DENSITIES OF REGULARLY SHAPED SOLIDS
Students calculate the volumes of regularly shaped objects from measurements of their dimensions. They use several formulas and measure different objects to calculate the density, volume, and mass of the objects selected or assigned.
Curated OER
To Float or Not to Float - A Lesson on Density
Learners define density in their own words. In this physics lesson, students calculate density using mass and volume. They explain why some objects sink and some float.
Curated OER
Care Homework #2
In this Care Homework worksheet, students solve a variety of multiple digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that include fractions, decimals, and percentages. They demonstrate knowledge of geometric formulas...

It's Around There Somewhere! Perimeter, and Circumference
Explore the concept of building equations for perimeter and circumference. Learners use rulers to measure the perimeter of half a sheet of paper. Then fold the sheet of paper numerous times, each time measuring perimeter. Learners use...
Curated OER
3D Objects
In this math worksheet, students solve six problems about 3D objects. Students also solve six problems about measuring 3D objects.
Curated OER
Convert This!
Students use conversion factors to solve problems. In this algebra lesson, students convert between Metric and English Units. They measure different objects and using both systems in their units.
Curated OER
Maximum and Minimum Points
In this maximum and minimum points worksheet, students solve and complete 12 various types of problems. First, they find the area of the smallest triangle given the point of intersection. Then, students find the volume of a box that has...
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
Liquids of Different Densities
Students compare the densities of different liquids. In this liquids lesson plan, students compare color, viscosity, weight, volume, and graph their findings.
Curated OER
Nanofibers: Measuring the Visible to Understand the Invisible
Students compare the size and shape of tubes that can be measured, to the size and shape of "nanowhiskers" that are too small to see. They practice measuring, calculating and graphing the ratio of circumference to diameter of a circle,...
Cornell University
Buoyancy
Swimmers know to float by turning their bodies horizontally rather than vertically, but why does that make a difference? In an interesting lesson, scholars explore buoyancy and the properties of air and water. They test cups to see which...
Curated OER
The Metric System
Learners practice converting metric measurements by completing the activities listed in this lesson. They first practice measuring common objects. They then convert metric measurements using the included worksheet.
Curated OER
A Cone and Its Net
Create and investigate nets for solid shapes with your class. They identify the different parts and faces of each polygon and solid then calculate the surface area and volume of cones. They use circle sectors of varying sizes to build...
