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
Earth Rotation
Learners examine the rotation of the Earth as it occurs in the 24 hour cycle. They use models of planets and the globe to make observations of movements made. Students brainstorm prior knowledge and then participate in a demonstration of...
Curated OER
Resistance
In this resistance worksheet, students read about voltage, current and resistance in order to determine the equation for resistance. They solve fourteen problems for resistance, current or voltage.
Curated OER
Solar Energy Experiment
Students observe solar energy at work. In this science lesson plan, students watch two bottles, painted black and white, sit in the heat with balloons on the mouth of the bottles. They observe and discuss why the balloon of the black...
Curated OER
Quotations of Martin Luther King, Jr.
In this quotations activity, students read and analyze 7 quotations by Martin Luther King, Jr. Students match each quote to the correct interpretation.
Curated OER
Spitzer Explores a Dying Star
In this dying star learning exercise, learners read about the Spitzer Space Telescope that detected the dying star-Messier-57. Students solve 6 problems including determining the total power produced by the dying star, they find the...
Curated OER
Fermi Detects Gamma-Rays from Messier
In this power law function worksheet, students use data from the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space telescope to apply the power law function to physical phenomena. Students use a graph to solve four problems.
Curated OER
Where the Buffalo Roam
Students lear about energy, energy efficiency and consumption. They measure energy use, graph the date, write a letter then design and present a PowerPoint on the topic.
Curated OER
The Sun Does What?
Learners examine why the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. In this sun lesson, students explore the sunset and shadows. Learners prove that the sun's position changes during the day. Students investigate what causes a shadow....
Curated OER
Start at the Very Beginning
Students explore ocean ecosystems. In this cross curriculum art and oceans lesson plan, students create a collage featuring three-finger algae using sand paper, tissue paper, and construction paper.
Curated OER
Jackie Gore
Middle schoolers identify the amount of heat given off by solar energy. In this solar energy lesson, students complete an experiment using soil and sand measuring the heat from solar energy.
Curated OER
Seed Germination
Students germinate a Mung Bean seed. In this seed lesson students conduct an experiment germinating a Mung Bean. They apply three different treatments to the seeds: dry, moist, and underwater incubation.
Curated OER
Applied Science -Physics (2B) Pre Lab
Second graders look at different types of energy. In this energy activity, 2nd graders define energy and the difference between kinetic and potential energy. They see examples with falling books and a slinky.
Curated OER
Applied Science - Physics Pre-Lab
Learners view a static electricity demonstration. In this Physics lesson, students compare static and current electricity. Learners watch an electricity slide show and sing the Electricity song.
Curated OER
Bystanders in the Holocaust
High schoolers recognize effects of apathy and indifference, examine behaviors associated with obedience, conformity, and silence, and explore legal responses to issues raised by the Holocaust.
Curated OER
Bottle Habitat
In groups of four, learners construct aquatic habitats in pop bottles. They create charts and record data from observations over a four week period. Then they graph their data and write explanations for what they observed.
Curated OER
Bag Balloons
Learners demonstrate that heat can change air. They determine that hot air rises. Students construct a working model of a hot air balloon. They understand that there are two ways that a balloon can rise: it can (1) be filled with a...
Curated OER
Air Pollution
Students collect and examine particulate matter found in the air. In this pollution instructional activity, students use microscope slides and petroleum jelly to collect particulate matter from several different locations, then use a...
