Fifth graders explore the differences between elements.  For this elements and atoms lesson students complete an activity that shows how chemicals react to a flame test. 

For this resistance worksheet, students use batteries, a breadboard, washers and more to make a parallel circuit and create resistance. Students then answer 7 questions.

In this voltage, current and resistance worksheet, students answer 21 questions about voltage, current and resistance. They find the current in batteries, they find the voltage in a resistor and they identify the voltage in circuits.

Students examine what a Wimshurst machine is and how it operates.  For this mechanics lesson students build a Wimshurst machine and watch it in action.

Students examine ways for people to stay healthy, such as exercising and eating right.

Students participate in a demonstration and complete an online activity that illustrates the earth orbits the sun once a year, and that the moon takes approximately 28 days to orbit the earth.

Fifth graders construct a food web to illustrate how animals and plants are interdependent. In this interdependence lesson, 5th graders identify how consumers, producers, herbivores, carnivores and predators are related in a habitat....

Students investigate questions centered around force and motion by going through the scientific process and creating fair tests and experimentation. In this instructional activity about forces-in-action, students diagram their findings...

Students experiment with solids and liquids to find which solids will dissolve in water. This dissolution and mixtures lesson can be completed online or in class as all materials are connected to the lesson plan for both settings.

For this periodic table worksheet, high schoolers make their own periodic table using 12 given elements and their properties. Students use these elements to arrange them into the proper periods and families based on their properties.

For this worksheet, students are asked 11 questions about AC currents and transformers and volt meters. Students can check answers online.

In this electrochemistry instructional activity, students determine the half reaction and the standard cell potential. Students identify the species that is the strongest oxidizing agent. This instructional activity has 11 problems to...

Students participate in an online activity to determine how objects heat and cool. They determine what objects best serve as thermal insulators.

Students participate in an online lesson to determine that different plants and animals are found in different habitats. They use food chains to show feeding relationships in a habitat, and see that nearly all food chains start with a...

Learners participate in an online lesson to determine how light travels from a source, and to explain that shadows form when light travelling from a source is blocked.

Students construct a food web to identify producer, consumer, herbivore, carnivore and predator. They complete an online activity collecting plants and animals and arranging them in the web. They describe the interdependence between...

Students discuss and investigate how various vehicles move. In a small groups, students then create a wheeled vehicle and find a way to make it move using various resources provided by the teacher.

Learners identify healthy foods. In this nutrition lesson plan, students review the five food groups and categorize healthy and unhealthy foods on a chart. Learners develop their own menus.

Students discuss micro-organisms. In this micro-organisms lesson, students identify which micro-organisms are harmful and which ones are beneficial. Students complete a worksheet which is included in the lesson.

Students explore whether fish get electrocuted when the lightning strikes a lake.

Students participate in an online lesson to reinforce the similarities and differences in plants and animals. They classify living things according to observable characteristics.

Students participate in an online lesson showing that gases are formed when liquids evaporate and that when a gas is cooled, it condenses to form a liquid, and gases move and flow more easily than liquids, and how gases differ from solids.

Students examine how micro-organisms are living organisms that are often too small to be seen. They explain that micro-organisms may be beneficial or harmful.
