Students create an experiment. In this friction lesson plan, students review the concept of friction and complete a bottle roll activity. Students work in groups to create their own friction experiment.

Students investigate why some objects float or sink in water. In this physics lesson, students calculate the density of clay ball using a mathematical equation. They write a complete lab report about the experiment.

High school economists learn about the stock market in a project where they "buy" and track stocks. The author of this resource reports it is the high point of her 12th grade economics course, but no resources are attached. After viewing...

Students observe the 'pouring' of a gas. They compare the masses (weights) and densities of two gases. Pupils define the following terms: matter, mass, and density. Students answer questions after watching the demonstration.

As your young learners develop into cooking enthusiasts, ensure their success in creating their next culinary masterpiece by preparing them to read and understand basic recipe terminology. 

Fifth graders discover in hands-on activities the relationships between the measures. They work in groups to create conversion tables using familiar measuring tools. Students solve problems requiring conversions.

Students examine icebergs and how they are suspended in water, why ice floats, the melting process of an iceberg, and the floating behavior of ice compared to that of a cork through a lab activity.

Students choose the correct strategy to solve multiplication and division. In this algorithm lesson, students use at least two strategies that use properties of operations and estimation. Students also recognize the relationship between...

Students participate in a lesson designed to illustrate these concepts using simple materials. They use Science process skills to observe, measure, predict, make inferences, and communicate while completing the activity. Proper safety...

Students discover the concept of elapsed time. In this calculating time lesson plan, students utilize the Internet to complete record sheets based on the concept of elapsed time. Finally, the students answer questions on their own.

Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. In this density lesson, students examine a list of items and discuss whether they will sink or float and then determine their density. Students examine the objects over five days...

Students are introduced to the concept of surface tension, its dependence on material composition, and how it can produce uniquely shaped surfaces.

Students convert measurements from one unit to another. In this math lesson, students study the environmental consequences of oil spills. They replicate an oil spill event by modeling and scaling.

Students investigate how to find the density of fluids and solids using math. Students also learn how to find the density of regular and irregular shaped objects.

Learners sketch the shape of three dimensional pyramids using nets. For this geometry lesson, students differentiate a pyramid from other three dimensional shape. They define the attributes of pyramids.

Learners easure and record volume of water, then measure and record mass of soil. They explain the effects of the following in controlling erosion: Contouring, cover crop, strip cropping, reforestation, inter-seeding.

Second graders work with liters and milliliters for measurement.

First graders explore number sense by participating in a measurement estimation activity. In this weight lesson, 1st graders discuss the differences between measurement units, both English and Metric. Students examine a loaf of bread to...

Students collect data from measurements and weights for this experiment. In this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs they create form their data to find the expression representing the data. They label which graph provided the best...

Students study how to calculate elapsed time. In this elapsed time lesson, they determine how to calculate the ending time of an event when they are given the starting time and the elapsed time. They participate in direct instruction,...

Young scholars investigate the properties of air through hands-on activities in conjunction with the demonstrations in a 3-2-1 Contact Video.

Students perform simple experiments to show properties of enzymes through studying how apple sauce can turn into apple juice and experimenting with papaya seeds. Students witness how enzymes speed up reactions through witnessing the...
