Students examine the differences between snow and rain. In this precipitation lesson, students measure one inch of rain and snow to calculate the amount of liquid water. Students use a snowfall "conversion" chart to measure how much...

Students investigate water vapor. They view and analyze photos, conduct Internet research, and analyze the total water vapor/total liquid water data plot.

Learners investigate one method used in the detection of lead in the soil. They use a Lead Check Soil Kit to safely obtain results in 30 minutes or less in levels of 400 ppm or above. In addition, they write a brief description of what...

Third graders gain appreciation of water by watching online video, "Weather Smart: The Water Cycle and Clouds," exploring how water cycle works, comparing and contrasting three states of water as solid, liquid, and gas, and discussing...

In these earth science worksheets student complete this project to model activity in the mantle, one Earth's four layers. The project includes liquid and powder materials in addition to several measuring components. Students must then...

Pupils determine the density of Plaster of Paris that has been prepared with a foam generated from dishwashing liquids and shampoo.

Learners have the opportunity to observe, measure and analyze the density of aerosol shaving creams and foams generated from shampoo and dishwashing liquids or detergents.

Students determine the differences between the crystallization of igneous and metamorphic rocks. They examine both liquid state and solid state crystallization.

Students explore how sound waves move through liquids, solids and gases in a series of simple sound energy experiments. They describe how sound needs molecules to move and that changing the medium that it travels through changes the...

Students are introduced to the laws of thermodynamics. The 1st law of thermodynamics states that the energy must be conserved when two objects of different temperatures come in contact. If one object gains energy, the other object must...

Students participate in several density lab activities in order to clarify the misconceptions that solids sink and liquids float. Students work with triple beam balances to find mass of objects to calculate density.

Students use knowledge of the states of matter while creating an informational book on solids, liquids, and gases. They watch a class video about matter and then discuss what they know about the three types.

Students identify he phases of matter (solid, liquid, gas), and why they take place. They comprehend what a physical change is and what a chemical change is. Students know the difference between a Mixture and a Solution.

Students investigate Newton’s Law of Cooling.  In this Algebra II/ Pre-Calculus lesson, students explore exponential regression as they conduct an experiment to simulate the temperature variations that occur as a liquid cools. ...

In this matter worksheet, students answer five questions about the law of conservation of mass. They identify substances as solids, liquids, gases or mixtures and they identify given items as matter or energy.

Students observe changes in water. In this lesson about water and its forms, students perform an experiment to determine how water changes. Students analyze what causes water to be solid, liquid, or gas. Students record their...

Students investigate crude oil. In this crude oil lesson, students investigate fractional distillation and use this technique to separate two liquids.

Middle schoolers classify materials. In this chemistry lesson, students examine the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Middle schoolers discover the elements, compounds, and chemical symbols.

In this metric measurements of capacity activity, 4th graders subtract two given metric liquid measures, then use the answers to answer three more questions.

Learners explore physical science by participating in a science activity. In this liquids lesson, students discuss how fluids can be affected by motion unlike solids. Learners define other scientific vocabulary terms and conduct a motion...

Learners list ingredients, utenstils, and steps in basic chocolate chip recipe. They evaluate the correctness of each list using copy of recipe, measure all liquid and dry ingredients, read recipe and follow steps to make cookies.

Students rotate through various hands-on experiment stations to explore the concept and properties of different types of matter. They compare some properties of solids, liquids and gases and describe how matter changes from one state to...

Students use magic bubbles to create designs on paper, and they are encouraged to relate their designs to objects they have seen in the world. They create a bubble print painting using a bubble and liquid watercolor mixture.

Young scholars examine and discuss the concepts of diffusion and osmosis. They observe the effects of diffusion on eggs by recording the change in an egg's size and the amount of liquid substance that remains.
