Water is common? Not really! Learn how the polarity of the water molecule gives it tremendous properties that make is quite unique in the universe. Learners will understand surface tension, adhesion, and cohesion, as well as why these...

Get close up and personal with a drop of water to discover how the polarity of its molecules affect its behavior. Elementary hydrologists split and combine water droplets, and also compare them to drops of oil. Much neater than placing a...

Five fabulous procedures introduce physics or chemistry classes to special properties of matter. They discover adhesion and cohesion, solubility, melting and boiling points, and viscosity through hands-on experiences. Tests are...

When you need a review learning exercise for your AP biologists on water and nutrient transport in plants, this one is for you! From the simple stuctures involved to the complex mechanisms that make it happen, the details of transport...

Transfer water from one cup to another without touching it. The amazing properties of water make this wonder occur! Have your young earth scientists conduct this experiment when learning about adhesion, cohesion, and water molecule...

Transfer water from one cup to another without touching it. The amazing properties of water make this wonder occur! Have your young earth scientists conduct this experiment when learning about adhesion, cohesion, and water molecule...

Using a simple method, learners explore gravity, cohesion, and adhesion. They perform an experiment in which they determine how many drops of water can fit on a penny. Afterwards, they discuss their results.

Students explore the properties of water. In this cross curriculum art and physical science lesson, students experiment with a variety of materials to demonstrate the cohesive forces and adhesion of water. Students create a water color...

High schoolers observe demonstrations that show adhesion, cohesion, equilibrium density, pressure of gases and solubility. In this gases lesson plan, students observe a demonstration of raisins, spaghetti, and popcorn moving up and down...

Students investigate surface tension, adhesion and cohesion. In this surface tension lesson plan, students complete 3 activities to better understand the concepts of surface tension, adhesion and cohesion. Students add drops of water to...

Students investigate adhesion, cohesion and surface tension. In this molecular forces lesson plan, students observe multiple demonstrations that show surface tension, the attraction of water molecules to each other and the ability of...

Learners investigate cohesion, adhesion and surface tension through observations and lab experiments. For this cohesion, adhesion and surface tension lesson plan, students rotate to 5 stations around the room and experiment at each...

Students investigate how plants transport water and nutrients through the plant. In this transportation in plants lesson plan, students use glass tubing, celery stalks, food coloring and leaves from plants to observe adhesion and...

Students perform classroom experiments to observe adhesion. They perform a second experiment using sand, salt, water, and a heat lamp to observe the principle of capillary action. They also experiment with adhesion in plants.

Students compare different types of pressure sensitive adhesive tapes. They fevelop and carry out tests for variables affecting the force needed to peel tape off a surface. Students analyze the time needed to peel the tape with different...

The hydrogen bonds in a water molecule result in an electric charge, allowing water to stick to other objects. Drew demonstrates the attraction between a charged balloon and a stream of water, but no images of the actual molecules are...

Fifth graders examine the concepts of cohesion and adhesion. They conduct a class experiment, predicting and observing what happens when a paper towel is placed between two cups of colored water, and recording the results.

Young scholars examine the properties of water and conduct experiments demonstrating adhesion. Using a wet string, they observe water moving by adhesion from a beaker full of water to an empty one. They draw cartoons of water molecules...

Students investigate the adhesive properties of different "glues." In this science activity, discover how the surface of a substance affects stickiness. They record data and share their findings in class.

Students examine how soil holds together and what the effect of particle size and water content is on soil.  For this engineering lesson students complete a lab, record their observations and discuss what they learned. 

Sixth graders explore ways to analyze the properties of water and examine the chemistry of water.  In this water lesson students work in groups and complete several activities. 

In this biology worksheet, 9th graders identify and locate various vocabulary terms pertaining to the study of biology. There are 50 biology terms located in the word search.
