Oxygen Teacher Resources

Sixth graders conduct a variety of assessments at a local stream to determine if it is a suitable habitat for salmon. They measure temperature, tubidity, dissolved oxygen, pH levels, bacteria and nutrients. In this unit, 6th graders work...

First graders study plants and animals and how they depend on one another. They also study that plants give energy to animals and provide oxygen needed for life. Finally, 1st graders give examples of the roles plants and animals play...

Students analyze the function of the lungs. In this lesson about the Respiratory System, students explore breathing and the movement of air through the lungs. Students perform an 4 part experiment to observe what it might look like for...

Students test turbidity, pH, oxygen content and temperature of local stream. In this earth science instructional activity, students collect and record data from the experiment. They analyze findings and present it to class.

Students identify the parts of the heart and the path blood flows through it. They practice using new vocabulary and labeling the parts of the heart. They examine the path of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood as well.

Students explain that photosynthesis is a process that plants use to convert light energy into glucose. They summarize photosynthesis as a chemical process in which the plant uses carbon dioxide and water to form glucose and oxygen.

In this chemistry worksheet, students determine the mass of the gas when filling a bicycle tire with nitrogen. Then they determine the volume of a balloon when at specific altitudes. Students also determine the partial pressure of oxygen...

Students complete an experiment to determine if there are bad microbes in food processing.For this bad microbe experiment, students use apples to see how they react to oxygen. Students test apples with chemicals to observe the changes.

In this scientific investigation worksheet, students follow the provided procedures to examine the chemical reactions of hydrogen and oxygen atoms and then respond to 1 short answer question.

Students investigate the circulatory system in human beings.  In this human body lesson, students create an outline of a human body using colored markers and butcher paper.  Students use red and blue colors to simulate the...

Young scholars collect data on the time of the ferry. In this algebra lesson plan, students use the data to predict a ferry schedule. They also compute the depth where oxygen would be needed when diving.

Students show the relationship between the need for plants to undergo photosynthesis in order to generate oxygen. They see the flaws associated with this thinking because of the lack of CO2 and H2O and lack of sufficient gravity in order...

Learners observe water samples and measure the samples' water quality. Students develop their own criteria for measuring water quality and test for temperature, acidity, oxygen levels, turbidity, conductance, sediment and hardness.

For this lake word search, students find 13 different vocabulary words associated with lakes such as habitat, oxygen, pollution, invertebrates, and turbidity.

Students create a PowerPoint presentation on the information they research about the ice cores and what they tell us about Earth's past. In this ice core lesson plan, students research radioactivity, air pollution, sodium, snowfall...

Trilobites survived on Earth for longer than mammals have, so what was their secret? From their evolution to diversity, they survived multiple large changes in the environment—and even flourished. Then, in the matter of less than a...

Third graders, in groups, classify different activities as aerobic or anaerobic. They create posters displaying their categorizations and then take notes on each other's posters.

Did you know that body armor actually contains uranium? Learn about how isotopes of the same element have different masses and unique physical properties.

Scientists rarely need to react metal with water, but they demonstrate an interesting trend in the periodic table. The video describes the reaction metals have with water. It goes through many examples, noting their positions on the...

What changes when you leave the solar system and enter interstellar space? First, scientists needed to define the end of the solar system. Using an interesting video, an installment from the SciShow Space series explains how the...

In this lake worksheet, students access a website to read about how the conditions in a lake change during the seasons. Students write these changes in a graphic organizer.

Students use data from the Chesapeake Bay to analyze temperature, phosphate, nitrates, salinity, and oxygen levels.

Students explore the respiration rate of a mealworm. Through experimental means, they determine the average volume of oxygen used and discuss factors that affect the respiration rate of an organism.

Students study the gas exchanges that occur during cellular respiration. They observe what happens as a result of a number of variables on the rate of respiration. They use microrespirometers to measure the oxygen consumption of...
