Succession in a Jar
In this succession worksheet, students build an ecosystem using a jar, water, bird seed, soil and a water plant. They predict what their ecosystem will look like in 3 weeks and draw a diagram. Students record their data over the course...
Curated OER
Lakes and Ponds
Students describe and recognize the difference between a lake and a pond. They name six ways in which a lake or pond can be formed. They describe the importance and act of evaporation on a waterway.

Formula of a Hydrate Lab
In this hydrate worksheet, students find the formula of an unknown salt by determining the mass of water in the heated compound. Students burn off the water and record data to establish the final mass and formula of the hydrate.
Curated OER
The Effect of Temperature on Solubility
In this solubility worksheet, learners conduct an experiment to see how temperature effects the solubility of salt in water. Students record their data in a chart and then graph the results. Then learners complete 2 short answer questions.

Pennsylvania Watersheds
Students identify the major watersheds of Pennsylvania. For this forestry lesson, students learn what a watershed is and are assigned one of the major watersheds of Pennsylvania. Groups then need to determine the boundaries of the...
Curated OER
Weather
Students explore the earth's atmosphere, weather, and climate. They begin class with a discussion about weather patterns, atmosphere, and the layers of the earth. After the class discussion, students rotate through four stations to...

Refrigeration Part 2 - How they work
Fourth graders investigate insulators and how refrigerators actually work to keep things cold through evaporation and pressure changes in the coolant. They create a box to keep an ice cube from melting, and observe a variety of...
Curated OER
Burning vs. Heating
Students investigate burning vs. heating and observe the differences. In this burning vs. heating lesson plan, students observe a wooden splint burning and a piece of glass tubing being heated. They answer questions to compare the two...

Meet Meteorology
Students explore meteorology, discuss Earth's atmosphere, create drawings of the water cycle, create meteorology journals, and role play forecasters. Nine lessons on one page; includes unit test.
Curated OER
The Sonoran Desert
Little learners examine a map of the southwestern United States and identify the Sonoran Desert. They locate different cities and rivers, determining whether or not each is found within this special ecosystem. A student handout is...
Curated OER
Let it Grow and See What Happens
Learners participate in an experiment in which they try to stop algae from growing. In groups, they develop a hypothesis and test it while making changes to the experiment along the way. They make observations and organize their data...
