In this science worksheet, students use the dichotomous key to identify common objects listed on the sheet. Then they write the scientific name of each object.

Eighth graders create a story to explain the art object being studied. The story displays students knowledge of writing conventions, elements of a short story, literary conflict, and the use of descriptive text.

Students, as a final project, draw a picture of their ideal neighborhood on a sunny day. In addition to the sun, their drawings include homes, trees, streets, and selected objects. Each object in their drawing has a written description...

Young scholars explain what factors determine density. In this physics lesson, students hypothesize which objects are less dense. They cite the importance of density in everyday life.

Young scholars work together to brainstorm their obstacles in testing different scientific principles. In groups, they are given a scenerio with a specific dilemma and they use the internet to research how to solve the problem. They...

In this ESL vocabulary building worksheet, students analyze 7 pictures of common objects as well as pictures that show location of a ball in relation to a box. Students answer 7 multiple choice questions about the pictures.

Students examine their home and calculates the amount of ventilation found. They also compute the surface area of different objects. They determine what is needed to reduce the amount of radon entering the home.

Students complete an experiment in which they measure the radon level in their home. They examine the different types of units of measurement and practice using them throughout the activity. They calculate surface area on objects as well.

In this solar system worksheet, students will fill in the blanks for 5 statements in this graphic organizer based on the objects found in space that make up the solar system.

Twelfth graders practice using subject and object pronouns in adjective clauses.

Students examine the distances between the Sun, planets, and smaller objects in the Solar System. They design a model using beads that shows the scale distances of the Solar System using astronomical units converted into a 10 centimeter...

Eighth graders identify the objects that make up the solar system. They define new vocabulary and practice using them. They discover that the sun is a star.

Ninth graders find the height of an object that would be difficult or impossible to measure directly. They construct and use a Clinometer to measure the angle of elevation (or depression). Students create a sketch of the measurement...

Fourth graders practice measuring different objects in inches. Individually, they estimate the length of the same object in centimeters and then calculate the actual length. They compare and contrast their estimate to the actual length...

Fifth graders examine the role of magnetism and electricity. In groups, they are given different types of magnets and discover how the magnetic force differs for each one. They measure the amount of distance a paper clip moves toward...

Students identify, extend, and create patterns of sounds, physical movements, and concrete objects. They brainstorm patterns found in the classroom. Students use mathematical attributes to identify patterns and predict what comes next.

Second graders gain an understanding of geometric shapes and spatial reasoning. They learn the attributes of solid shapes in everyday activities. Students compare geometric shapes to everday objects, finding things that serve a purpose...

Students explore Plains Indians and practice computer skills by reading creation and migration stories on People of the Plains CD-ROM, and watching Plains video. Students examine village life of Plains Indians, and view different...

Students identify the grapheme and phoneme for H. They practice writing the letter H and through listening activities, discriminate the phoneme /h/. They associate the phoneme /h/ with its letter representation and identify it as the...

Students label images seen on an interactive website. In this early writing lesson, students do their best to write the name of the object seen on the screen.

Students identify the characteristics of living things and examine objects to see if they are living. They identify the needs of living things, in particular of animals and animal babies. They discuss how to care for pets.

Fifth graders construct their own electromagnet out of copper and nails. They discover what objects could be used for magnets. Finally, 5th graders discuss how electric currents are formed.

Pupils classify clouds as transparent, translucent or opaque. They conduct an experiment to determine the visual opacity of several classroom objects and then conduct further observations of clouds.

Young scholars are presented with five items found in a suitcase to reflect upon the experience of a Mexican vacation. They use realia to produce a journal entry about one of the objects and its uses. The item is then brought to the...
