Through a station rotation activity, scientists complete 9 chemistry activities to complete this interactive worksheet. Concepts include molar masses, percent composition, accuracy vs. precision, mass of an object, scientific notation,...

Learners distinguish between weight and mass. They examine how in oscillations of a mass against an elastic spring--in the absence of gravity, or in horizontal motion--the length of the oscillation period is proportional to the square...

Students circulate through stations to determine the proper instrument to make a certain type of measurement. They must make measurements of mass, volume, length, area, electrical current, temperature and force.

Students participate in a qualitative discussion of the distinction between weight and mass, followed by a description of astronaut mass measurements in a zero-g environment.

Sprouting scientists explore the concept of density by making mass and volume measurements for five different liquids. From these measurements, they calculate densities. They apply their learning to explain Galileo's thermometer works...

Students investigate the coefficients in a chemical equation and their relation to moles. In this moles and coefficients lesson plan, students perform a single replacement reaction of copper (II) sulfate and zinc and find the ratio of...

Students investigate the rate of a chemical reaction. In this rate of reactions lesson plan, students use an electronic balance to measure the change in mass of a chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate. They...

Ninth graders explore physics with springs and strings. In this force and motion lesson, 9th graders rotate through four stations exploring how various springs stretch and bounce, and how mass and length affect a pendulum's swing. They...

Young scholars participate in a metric Olympics. In this metric measurement instructional activity, students participate in 6 events that require them to predict, estimate, and measure lengths, masses, and area in metric units.

Students measure the mass, volume, length and area of various objects. They are assigned a letter. The task is assesses students' abilities to make simple observations and measurements.

This is a great worksheet with an infographic to assist your students in categorizing matter into mixtures and non-mixtures. Information is given about the metric system of measurement. Your young students match 13 terms with their...

Bathymetry is not a measure of the depths of bathtubs! Through the three lessons, scholars explore two different types of maps and how they are made. The resource focuses on topographic and bathymetric maps and teaching the techniques...

Students review key words used in stoichiometry such as mole, molar mass, Avogadro's number, and mass - mole relationships. They participate in a series of small experiments to explore solving stoichiometry problems in the laboratory.

High schoolers are able to analyze gravity as an universal force. They are able to demonstrate ways that simple machines can change force. Students are able to determine how the force of friction retards motion. They are able to...

Eighth graders analyze physical change in mass. In this chemistry lesson plan, 8th graders describe, measure and calculate the amount of physical change occurring in mass before and after the change. Students should be familiar with...

Students find the density of objects by finding their mass and their volume. For this density lesson plan, students determine the mass of objects, the find the volume by using formulas or by water displacement and they calculate the...

Explore the connection of surface area to bonding within atoms. Learners complete lab investigations to model changing surface area with different sizes and concentrations of atoms. A flour fireball demonstration follows the labs to...

Pupils receive a miniature pumpkin and proceed through several stations to measure a variety of physical properties. The data is entered into a data sheet and the mass and volume measurements are used to calculate density. They also use...

Students study weather and weather measurement tools. In this weather instructional activity, students read and discuss weather myths and superstitions as well as weather terminology. Students then work in groups to complete weather...

In this space flight activity, students will review physics terms relating to space which includes measuring the distance of space objects, how rockets work, and electromagnetic waves. This activity has 10 terms in a crossword puzzle, 6...

Students observe and measure a model of slow down slope movement.  In this graphing lesson students collect, record, and organize data that apply to models.   

Set up stations around your science lab to introduce youngsters to different equipment. They examine a beaker, graduated cylinder, ruler, balance, and thermometer. The said worksheet is not included, but you will find a few useful tips...

Eighth graders experiment with Newton's Laws by comparing the falling of different objects with different masses. Students work in teams and rotate through four different stations recording their hypotheses and observations as they go.

Not only do mealworms taste great, they are also great for classroom science lessons. In pairs, young scientists observe and record what they see as they check out what their mealworms are doing from minute to minute. Each minute...
