Looking for an out-of-this-world volcanic activity? Geologists study Earth's volcanic history and the neighboring planet Mars by modeling volcanic eruptions, lava flows, and building a shield volcano. Participants use graph paper and...

Learners construct their own lava lamp using simple substances. In this physics lesson, students explain how difference in density causes convection. They solve for forces and buoyancy using mathematical equations.

For this measurement worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different word problems that include illustrations to match. First, they determine how long ago the railway coaches started on the tracks in the US. Then, students determine the number...

This resource will blow your mind! Young mathematicians estimate the rate of volcanic lava flow by watching a video. They apply the rate formula to determine how long it would take the lava to reach a city. Let's hope everyone gets out...

Students watch a video about an active volcano and use similes and metaphors to write an original poem. In this poetry and volcano lesson, students define similes and metaphors and brainstorm examples. Students watch a video about lava...

Blow your pupils' minds with information about some of the world's most awesome natural occurrences: volcanos. Class members read a short article and respond to included questions. The focus of the resource is on understanding and...

For this math worksheet, pupils analyze two vector fields. They tell which of the vector fields is the scaler field for the given function. Students draw solution curves to match the differential equations represented in the illustrations.

Fourth graders make models of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks out of different types of candy and cookies.

In this article about emails and plants worksheet, students read short descriptions about 8 planets in the solar system and then imagine they are visiting one of the planets and send an email to a family member describing their...

Students explore water properties by conducting a class experiment. In this buoyancy lesson, students utilize freshwater, saltwater, plastic cups, hard boiled eggs and food coloring to experiment with the floating capabilities of salt...

In this math worksheet, students find the solutions to the differential equations. Then they graph the solution and show if they are perpendicular.

Students analyze satellite image data of Volcan Villarica. In this earth science lesson, students identify dangerous areas surrounding the volcano. They propose a new safe location for the town.

Students discuss the differences between the three types of rocks and how radon can escape from the rocks themselves. They analyze other sources of radon in the environment. They work together to complete an activity and worksheet.

Learners use counting skills to decide who wins the Classroom Winter Games. They use numeral writing and tally marks to keep score. Students have an opportunity to pretend they are competing for medals in the Winter Games while using...

Science Bob provides instructions for how to make some lava in a cup using common supplies with information on how it works.

In this video segment [2:01] from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad finds that by arranging triangle tiles they are able to create a path that will allow them to cross a river of hot lava.
