TIMS, The Bouncing Ball: Math, Science, Measurement, Graphs, Variables
Learners determine the exact relationship between the height from which a ball is dropped and the distance that it rebounds.
Curated OER
Measuring Larval Growth and Development
Students keep a detailed records of the growth and development of their larvae. They fill out an observation chart every day during the larval stage, and every4-5 days during the pupa stage. They summarize all of their data on a class...
Curated OER
Wet-Dry Bulb Hygrometers: Measuring Relative Humidity and Apparent Temperature
Students work in groups of 4 for the activity/activity part of this exercise. They know that clouds are formed by the condensation of water vapor, affect weather and climate. Also that global patterns of atmospheric movement influence...
Curated OER
Big Foot
Students measure the length of their feet and shoes using nonstandard measurements. They check their estimates and record theirmeasurements on a paper.
Curated OER
Metrics in the Home and in the Store
Students investigate metric measurement. For this geometry lesson plan, students discover metric measurements of everyday objects as they compare them to US measurements.
Curated OER
Pennies for Pits
Sixth graders use the edible and nonedible parts of various fruits to determine percentages. Using measurements and appropriate tools are part of the lesson.
Curated OER
Popcorn Neutrino Lab
Young scholars parcticipate in a modeling activity that simulates the cyclical role of experimental and theoretical science. Initially, students measure the mass of popcorn. They also record predictions of the mass of the kernels after...
