Learners explain the importance of water in our daily lives. For this aquatic science lesson, students identify different ways to purify water and make it potable. They design and construct a water filter based on researched information.

Students design and conduct an experiment on Galileo's Rule of Falling Bodies. In this physics lesson, students collect and analyze data. They create a presentation and share it with the class.

Students determine the muzzle velocity of projectile launcher. In this physics lesson, students compare the pendulum method and kinematic method in calculating the initial velocity. They analyze data and discuss results in class.

Students determine the spring constant by conducting an investigation. In this physics lesson, students collect data and create a graph of force vs. displacement. They compare the results of two different methods to find spring constant.

Students investigate the laws of thermodynamics. They observe demonstrations of each law, read a summary, and analyze how pizza demonstrates the laws of thermodynamics.

Student create a numerical model which integrates Schrodinger's equation in 1 dimension. They discuss the properties of the solutions which match the boundary conditions. Student discusss any limitations if there are any in there model.

Pupils explore orbital velocities and how they vary along each orbit, according to Kepler's Second Law.

Students practice what to do in the case of water emergencies. They experiment with using a pair of jeans to create a flotation device and learn to use a life preserver to pull others to safety.

Learners explore some of the environmental health risks involved with both the mining and burning of coal. They read articles on coal in the Balkan Peninsula, view the photographs, and then discuss what feelings and thoughts they have...

Students examine the concepts of light and chlorophyll. They participate in an experiment in which the chlorophyll shows as a red ring on the test tube. They answer discussion questions to end the instructional activity.

Students are told that objects in contact with one another reach an equilibrium temperature. A hot object placed in a cool liquid always cool off. It never happens that the object gets hotter and cool liquid gets colder. Students predict...

Students predict how changing the pendulum components affect its period. In this physics lesson, students calculate the period using different masses. They analyze lab result and complete assigned worksheet.

Students describe the relationship between temperature and volume. In this chemistry lesson plan, students perform an experiment and record their their results. They use Charles' law to explain their observations.

Students identify coal as the primary fuel used to generate electricity. After discussing coal's use in the generation of electricity, have students complete "When the Light Go Out" worksheet.

Pupils identify environmental challenges that can be solved throughout a product's life cycle. They experiment and examine how we can choose and use products in an environmentally responsible manner. Each student is also involved in...
