Simple in format and standard in content, this resource is an assessment of your beginning chemists' grasp of the atom. Using a periodic table of elements, they fill in a chart of missing chemical formulas, atomic masses, and numbers of...

Get down to basics with these worksheets on the structure of atoms. Challenging young chemists to identify information from the periodic table and create Bohr diagrams and Lewis dot structures for different elements, this...

Young scientists take a trip into the microscopic world of cellular biology with this practice exercise. Given pictures of different organelles, students must correctly identify specific parts of each cellular structure to demonstrate...

In this chemistry worksheet, students use the periodic table to complete the chart shown, filling in all of the missing information in the blank spaces. They identify and describe various elements found in the periodic table.

Students identify how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. They also identify and interpret how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and...

In this climate worksheet, students will identify 5 different biomes, solve 4 number puzzles, unscramble 6 world biomes, and 4 word puzzles about climate and biomes.

For this chemical reactions worksheet, students review the oxidation number rules and then assign oxidation numbers to atoms in given compounds. Students identify the reducing agent and the oxidizing agent in reactions. Students practice...

In this experimental design worksheet, students evaluate experiments using a design checklist. They suggest ways to improve the experiments and they identify all the components of the design.

Students explore electricity.  In this interactive electricity lesson, students create static electricity with balloons, observe the rate at which ice melts to identify conductors and insulators, and create a static charge. ...

What do a cheetah, Audi commercial, and air have in common? They're all topics of an engaging inquiry-based, hands-on workshop for educators about background knowledge, reading strategies, the CER model, and argumentative writing. The...

Students explore how the different parts of a bicycle relate to each other and identify the subsystems. They discover how bicycles work and investigate their history. In groups, students research each of the subsystems and present...

Third graders identify the phases of the moon. They use technology to access websites on the Internet dealing with the moon.

Eighth graders identify and explain how infectious diseases effect organ systems. Using an analogy with automobiles and body systems, they discover how one part influences the operation of the whole. Students write paragraphs about...

In this radioactivity instructional activity, students write the mass number and atomic number for the missing element in the reactions. Students identify the isotope that is more stable and determine the half-life of the isotope. This...

In this chemical hazard labels and MSDS worksheet, students read and interpret chemical hazard labels and MSDS. Then they use the documents given to respond to several questions about chemical hazard labels. Students identify the...

Young scholars identify and illustrate how changes in DNA cause mutations and evaluate the significance of these changes. They illustrate a chromosomal mutation such as duplication, deletion, inversion, and translocation.

Students examine the animals that live in trees. They identify their sounds, footprints and droppings. They draw pictures of the animals as well.

Students investigate and explore common objects to discover and identify their parts. They also are encouraged to discuss the need for specific parts and what happens when a part is missing from the whole.

Third graders name and identify three body parts of an insect, identify the characteristics that insects have six legs and one pair of antennae and categorize insects as to whether they are helpful or harmful.

Learners identify the bugs collected from the pond. In this biology lesson, students observe the living and nonliving organisms in the pond environment. They write a reflection about why nature is important and must be preserved.

Students identify the types of light on the visible spectrum. They identify relationships between angles and mirrors. They state how they use light in their everyday lives.

Learners are read a short book "Time Train" by Paul Fleischman. Using the text, they identify the clues to let them know the train is traveling back in time. They make a time line of the trip and make a cutout of meat-eating and...
