Sixth graders investigate heat energy, conduction, convection, and radiation.
Curated OER
Let's Investigate Tooth Decay
Students conduct a simple investigation to explore tooth decay.
Curated OER
Climate and Weather
Students become familiar with weather terminology and different representations of data as they explore various on-line weather sites. They practice using and interpreting data determining the effects of the time of day, time of year and...
Curated OER
Heating Up: Direct and Indirect Sunlight
Students, by conducting simulations, explore the effects of direct and indirect sunlight on heating of the Earth.
Curated OER
Mercury in the Environment
Students develop abilities necessary to do scientific inquiry. They develop an understanding of chemical reactions, structures and properties of matter. They develop decision-making skills in natural and human-induced hazards.
Curated OER
The Urban Heat Island Effect - Lesson 2 (Grades 8-9)
Students use the scientific process to show that when various surfaces are exposed to similar environmental conditions, surface temperatures may vary. They examine the "urban heat island" phenomenon and analyze why it increases energy...
Curated OER
Candy Cane Chemistry
Fourth graders, in groups, examine the effect of heat on bonding forces by doing laboratory work.
Curated OER
Distance over Time
Students analyze velocity and how it is determined. They experiment with velocity in order to measure and calculate the magnitude of speed. They use examples in their novel "Skateboard Renegade" to relate velocity to real life situations.
Curated OER
Playground Games
Students compete in playground games in order to review velocity and wave behavior in real life situations. They demonstrate understanding by calculating velocity in their "Playground Games" packet.
Curated OER
How Do I Measure Up? (Intermediate)
Fifth graders compare the relationship between meter in music and measurement in math. They practice sightreading music by determining the number of beats per measure, clapping and counting the rhythm.
Curated OER
Endothermic or Exothermic That Is the Question
Students conduct an experiment to determine what happens to heat energy during a chemical reaction. They examine an endothermic reaction by observing a chemical reactions.
Curated OER
What Is the Freezing Point?
Students remove heat energy and determine how it causes a phase change.
Curated OER
More Bait for Your Buck!
Students determine where to buy the heaviest earthworms as they study invertebrates. They create a double bar graph of the results of the weight data.
Curated OER
The Sky and the Dichotomous Key
Students use a dichotomous key to distinguish between different types of clouds
Curated OER
Thunderstorms
Fourth graders investigate the attraction between two different charges to explain the concept of lightning in a thunderstorm.
Curated OER
Shake, Rattle and Roll
Students compare the weathering of different-sized materials. Comparisons are made and data analyzed to reach conclusions about the process of weathering. Applications can be made for the higher grades.
Curated OER
The Ups and Downs of It: Wind
Students explore the ways in which wind is formed and how it affects our weather.
Curated OER
Flying Through the Solar System
Students create a model of the solar system out of candy. They write a book about their travels through the Solar System, beginning at age ten and reaching Pluto at age seventy.
Curated OER
Solar Oven
Students construct a solar oven using cardboard, duct tape, aluminum foil and other materials. They use the solar oven to cook something and keep a journal of their project.
Curated OER
Shoreline Seining and Sampling
Pupils investigate ecological systems and the cause and effect relationship between humans and the environment by using the prey items of Ospreys.
