In this scientific research worksheet, students will complete a chart by determining if the statements given are examples of quantitative research or descriptive research. Then students will fill in the blank of 8 statements about the...

Fifth graders study the effects of mass on gravity. For this gravity lesson, 5th graders make model parachutes and helicopters in order to apply the scientific process and find out the effects of mass on drops of the 2 objects.

Students observe and measure tree leaves.  For this leaf lesson students do on a "leaf walk" then use the leaves they find to complete a few activities. 

In this business vocabulary exercise worksheet, students answer multiple choice questions based on business vocabulary. Students translate business vocabulary.

Students complete activities to learn about rainbows and the importance of dairy in their diet. In this sense and diet lesson, students discuss rainbow colors, the importance of sight, and the importance of dairy in a healthy diet....

Students observe termite trail-following behavior.  In this termite trails lesson, students draw a circle or other shape approximately eight inches across with a ball point pen.  Teacher taps out termites into the circle and...

Students investigate the effects of acid rain by conducting an experiment with bean sprouts and graph the results. In this Environmental Policy lesson, students visit a museum to identify examples of foreign and domestic policy on...

In this swim bladders worksheet, students use a bowl, water, and balloons to make swim bladders, and answer short answer questions about them. Students answer 7 questions and interview someone who has been scuba diving.

Young scholars identify the meaning of the Mean Value Theorem. In this calculus lesson, students solve problems using the definite integral. They calculate the average value of a function.

Learners collect, graph and analyze data. In this statistics instructional activity, students measure the heart beat of a person as they listen to music. They use the CBL and TI to create a graph, analyzing the outcome.

High schoolers examine how observations lead to investigations, and how archaeologists conduct their investigation.

Students examine each soil sample and record observations. In this biology activity, students design an experiment to test soil flow rate. They write a lab report about the experiment.

Students identify the control and the variables in the experiment. They describe the growth of plants with and without nitrogen fixing bacteria, then name the bacterium responsible for making nitrogen available to the plant.

Eighth graders define the boundaries of living organisms. They determine what makes something a living organism and identify factors that constitute "living." Pupils write a conclusion about the evidence they found that yeast is alive...

Fifth graders investigate buoyancy by conducting a science experiment.  In this water properties lesson plan, 5th graders predict which of their different paper boat designs will float for the longest period.  Students conduct...

Students perform an experiment to compare the sensitivity of the various developmental stages of Red Flour Beetles to ultraviolet radiation. Larvae, pupae and adult beetles are exposed to a source of UV-B radiation. In groups, they...

Third graders observe the tadpoles/frogs and draw a picture in their journals every week to monitor its growth with 100% accuracy. They observe tadpoles/frogs and record at least two changes or the observations the tadpole undergoes...

Students explore the adaptations of deep sea life forms.  In this science lesson, students watch a video to observe characteristics which allow for the sea creature to thrive in it's environment. Students determine the physical,...

Sixth graders develop a reasonable hypothesis for a fictional science fair investigation. 'Raquel' is going to grow radishes and test for the best way to nourish them. They create a bar graph and write conclusions.

Third graders observe soil samples. They then form hypotheses as to whether or not soil is alive. Students read and discuss information about soil and components of soil. They state wheter or not they believe soil is alive and list...

Students "take a trip" to the Greater Antilles to observethe Anolis lizards. They study the body structures and habitat of different species, then plot this data on a map to look for patterns in their distribution. From the patterns they...

Students investigate what happens to solids and liquids when they change from one form to another. The amount od space taken by frozen water begins the discussion and students are led to formulate their own hypothesis to research.

Pupils examine the population of aphids. They identify adaptations they have made for their environment. They make predictions, test their hypothesis and collect information that either proves or disproves their theory.

Learners work together to perform experiments on different types of soil. They record the soil's pH level, color and texture. They develop hypothesis' on what they believe they will discover before beginning the experiment.
