Young scholars are introduced to the concept/idea of a vector, what it represents and why they are used. They develop an understanding of what vectors are, how and why they are used.

Young scholars describe how to recognize a force, define balanced and net forces, state Newton's first law of motion, explain why friction works, state Newton's second Law of Motion, and explain why the direction of force is important.

Students create products from studying about matter that include: Make a "T" chart with matter and non matter items. Write a poem, song, or rap about matter. Five vocabulary words from the chapter must be included in the poem.

Eighth graders distinguish between and apply Newton's Laws. They take a quiz reviewing Kinetic and Potential Energy. Students explain that they have just demonstrated Newton's three laws of motion. They also explain what forces are...

Students describe how elements are arranged on the periodic table. They compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids based on their properties and on their locations in the periodic table. Students describe the differences between a...

Students compute mean, median and mode and compare mean, median and mode to a real-world application to identify their practical uses. They apply mean, median and mode to real-world statistical data. Finally, students organize data into...

This discovery student page offers students an opportunity to work as a team to discover the shape of an object they cannot see. It is an experiment which parallels particle physicists dilemma in not being able to see very small...

Students observe two-dimensional shapes and work on the challenge that what is observed is as important as what is not observed. Students determine constructions, rules and connections. Full references listed for further reading and...

In this health and fitness worksheet, students keep a detailed log on this blank chart. Students record all their fitness activities for a week and indicate if they are aerobic or anaerobic.

In this heart health crossword, students locate 14 words to solve clues and place them in the puzzle. Although this appears to be part of a heart health adult presentation, older students could benefit.

In this nutrition worksheet, students keep track of all snacks eaten for a three day period. Students record the name of the snack, nutritional information, where and when it was eaten, and a rating by the student.

In this heart muscle activity, students analyze two pictures of people in action. Students label the pictures with "contracting muscle" or "relaxing muscle". Students study two more pictures of muscle movement and label each one...

In this water activity, students read an excerpt about the effects of pollution on the life cycle of a lake. Then they describe how lakes are affected by the pollution. Students also define why pollution has become such a problem for...

In this forces and machines worksheet, students will review vocabulary associated with forces including friction, inertia, and work. Students will also explain how simple machines help to do work easier. This worksheet has 10 matching, 6...

In this water and diffusion worksheet, high schoolers will explore the characteristics of water and the water molecule. Students will also answer questions about diffusion and the movement of materials due to concentration differences....

In this Newton's Third Law activity, students complete a table identifying the action force and reaction force of several examples. Students demonstrate a basic understanding of Newton's Third Law by filling in missing blanks and...

In this integral worksheet, learners estimate the definite integral and find the derivative of functions. They graph functions and determine the range of the velocity. This three-page worksheet contains approximately 40 problems.

In this math worksheet, students complete the practice exam that asks for the solution to the parametric equation. Also they name the perpendicular line in relation to it.

In this math learning exercise, students find the plane perpendicular to the path (t2, t, cos 2πt) at time t = 1/4. Then they determine the location in which the object is moving the fastest.

In this math worksheet, students investigate vectors and polar coordinates. They convert the paths of polar coordinates to Euclidian points.

In this present participles activity, learners review and discuss what present participles of verbs are and fill in three blanks with the appropriate present participle answer.

In this quadratic system worksheet, students solve systems of linear equations. This one-page worksheet contains two story problems where students write their own system of equations and then solve. The remaining eight problems are...

For this direct variation worksheet, 11th graders solve 11 different problems that include applying direct variation to solve. First, they find the constant of the variation described. Then, students use the charts at the bottom of the...

For this differential equations worksheet, students solve and complete 3 sets of various problems. First, they solve each of the differential equations. Then, students use the given information to evaluate the constant of integration....
