Balloons
Learners explore the different types of balloons. In this materials lesson students can complete several experiments including building their own hot air balloons, making balloon animals and experimenting with static electricity.
Curated OER
Black Holes
Students explore what black holes are and how gravity is associated with them. In this space instructional activity students are given enough information to imagine a journey to a black hole.
Curated OER
Estimating the Live Mass of Dinosaurs
Learners estimate the live mass of dinosaurs. Using dinosaur and modern animal models, students use simple displacement methods to calculate the volume of the models. They calculate the masses of each model. Learners compare the...

The Portable Niche
Third graders, in groups, research animals, plants, and conditions found in ecosystems.
Curated OER
Conservation Station
Second graders, in groups, measure the volume of four containers that vary in shape and size.
Curated OER
Physical Difference and Classification
Students use a microscope and observation skills to compare and contrast several physical properties and develop a classification system.
Curated OER
Teaching Modeling Water Quality
Students explore the basics of interpreting RUSS temperature and oxygen profile data. They are introduced to the Geographic Information Systems (GIS), particularly with respect to interpreting maps.
Curated OER
Finding and Collecting in the Field
Students examine the types of plants brought over to America from immigrants. They research how some of these types of plants cause damage and alter the landscape. They record data and share the information with the community.
Curated OER
Science: Lenz's Law and the Spinning Can
Students observe a demonstration of Lenz's Law using an aluminum can and a bar magnet. They hypothesize what will occur as the can is placed in water and the magnet is lowered above it on a string. Students discover the phase shift...
