For this circuit builder worksheet, students use the Circuit Builder Gizmo to answer 15 questions and complete charts about different kinds of circuits. Students will need to have access to the online Gizmo to complete the worksheet.

Students distinguish between open and closed circuits. In this open and closed circuits lesson plan, students use their bodies as electric conductors and understand how electricity is a form of energy.

Students explore electromagnetic forces. In this electromagnetic lesson plan, students construct a working electromagnet and conduct a series of experiments to see what increases the strength of an electromagnet.

Students explain that when a beam of light is reflected from its surface, it changes direction. In this virtual science experiment lesson plan, students complete an activity that requires them to investigate how flat mirrors reflect...

Students recognize different types of movement and causes that my affect the movement. They know that pushes and pulls are types of forces.

Students identify how the pitch and the loudness of an instrument can be altered. In this online science of sound lesson, students employ the use of an interactive whiteboard to examine the loudness and pitch of a guitar, drum, and...

Students identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants. In this online plant biology lesson plan, students explore the processes of pollination, seed dispersal, and germination. Extension...

Students conduct a series of experiments on thermoelectricity. In this physics lesson, students investigate how thermocouple works. They determine the voltage generated when different conductive materials are held at different temperatures.

High schoolers discuss transition metals, their properties, and where they are located on the periodic table as well as why transition metals are ideal for coins. After discussion, they conduct an experiment using copper in the form of...

Learners have to have had some experience with metals prior to using this worksheet. They are given five properties common to five different metals. They create or use a dichotomous key to identify the five mystery metals. Tip: This...

Annotated diagrams explain the distribution of charged particles in clouds that can lead to lightening bolts. This is a super short slide show but it is useful for explaining the phenomenon and safety mechanisms.

As the title implies, this is a list of vocabulary terms relating to water monitoring. If your ecology class is learning about how to test water quality, this will be an appropriate reference sheet for them. As a bonus, if you live in...

In this circuits worksheet, students read about the symbols used in drawing circuit diagrams and then complete 16 matching, 2 multiple choice, and 4 short answer questions.

Students identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed dispersal and germination using the Internet. Students will also study and discuss the key points and...

Instructions for building a simple electromagnetic motor are provided for the teacher. Aside from some sketchy background information and a list of content standards to be met, that is about all you will find in this resource. The motor...

The materials and procedures for building a hydrophone, an underwater sound collecting device, are provided in this resource. Have high school oceanographers construct the underwater microphone to pick up sound waves. Then take...

First and second graders see that everyday objects are made from a variety of materials. They interact with objects such as keys, plastic spoons, a wooden ruler, a towel, and a plastic bag. A discussion ensues which leads them to...

To conduct an orchestra, a conductor’s conduct must be above reproach. What fun! Light a match under your readers by having them read a series of definitions and find the homograph that matches. If students don’t contest, you could...

In this electronic learning exercise, students complete 4 short answer, 6 fill in the blank, and 4 term identifications about electronics.

Students explain the difference between a closed circuit and an open circuit. They construct simple to more complicated series and parallel circuits. They explain the difference between a series and parallel circuit.

In this molecules worksheet, students read about the discovery of new carbon molecule which has been nicknamed buckyball. Students answer 2 short answer questions.

In this periodic table worksheet, learners will label the atomic number, atomic mass, element name, and element symbol for oxygen. Then students will determine the characteristics of the different groups of elements on the periodic table...

In this science worksheet, students use a periodic table to complete the first four rows of a chart. Students use the Internet or research books to complete the last column.

Students identify and describe transition metals. They discuss alloys and their benefits. Students research one common, alloy, its composition, properties, and uses. They are asked for some common properties of most transition metals....
