Learners perform an experiment, collect, and analyze data of a rolling marble down a ramp. They report results after they complete their experiment. Students are assessed in science and writing.

Students explore the relationship between the force applied to a spring and its stretch. They design and conduct an experiment to determine the stretch of spring with 15N of force without having an actual 15N mass.

Students design and conduct an experiment to explore the insulating abilities of different materials for keeping a liquid in a paper cup warm. A small group of lab partners test four different materials: black paper, white paper,...

Students investigate and compare the bouncing ability of the materials from which four different balls are made. They determine which material performs the best for use as a basketball. After collecting data in a small group they...

Students investigate the concept of sound and vibration. They use a tuning fork to make an observation. Students then propose the ideas of different experimental designs to test the concept. The ideas are constructed and then tested.

Students brainstorm ants and their characteristics in a class discussion. They observe the ants and answer question pertaining to their behavior; then they apply the scientific method in creating and investigating a problem.

In this plants worksheet, students watch movies about plant growth and then answer multiple choice and short answer questions about them. Students answer 6 questions total.

Sixth graders investigate the construction of a magnet and the force it produces. They identify various materials as magnetic or non-magnetic, discuss the properties of magnetic properties, and conduct an experiment with a compass and...

In this vibrations and waves worksheet, students determine the period and frequency of a pendulum with the mass of .100 kg released. Then they determine whether the amounts increase, decrease, or stay the same when the same pendulum is...

In this math worksheet, students solve seven problems using the formula for speed, distance, and time. Students use a table to elicit the system of equations, and solve them using either combining techniques or substitution.

For this math worksheet, students find the plane perpendicular to the path (t2, t, cos 2πt) at time t = 1/4. Then they determine the location in which the object is moving the fastest.

In this physics 210 worksheet, students answer the question of the predicted modes of oscillations heard based on the information provided in the word problems. Students apply their understanding of sound waves to answer the questions...

Students will design and build a structure to support a rock. Students will use their knowledge of movement of objects to determine the proper base to be built to support their rock. Students will explore their natural area for...

Learners examine the law of conservation of momentum. In this physics lesson, students play marbles in order to compare the mass of the marble and velocities effects. Learners receive directions of the marbles game and collect data while...

Students explore the concept of gravity. In this gravity lesson, students drop super balls from varying heights. Students record the height of the super ball on bounce zero and bounce one.

Students study speed and learn how to calculate it.  For this investigative lesson students participate in an activity that shows them how to calculate speed then they fill out a worksheet.

Young scholars conduct an experiment. In this movement activity, students see how far a marble will roll after coming down a ramp. The young scholars change the height of the ramp to make it roll faster and record their results.

Students study how alpine glaciers move and the factors that effect how fast a glacier moves.  In this glacier lesson plan students construct a glacier model, make a hypothesis and interpret data. 

High schoolers explore poetry and technology.  In this poetry writing activity, students choose a theme and write a pattern poem, then create a related slideshow.

Sixth graders write a poem and an essay about the machines they have learned about that are used in agriculture. For this machines lesson plan, 6th graders compare different kinds of machines and discuss the economic impact machines in...

Students discuss agriculture. In this farming instructional activity, students compare farming practices from the past compared to when machines were introduced. They discuss this concept as a class and participate in multiple...

High schoolers define what inertia is in their own words. In this physics lesson, students observe what happens to their action figure as the skateboard stops suddenly. They apply Newton's 1st law to real world situations.

Young scholars determine the factors that affect car speed. In this physics lesson, students design a car that can travel fast and far. They record test run data and use them to construct graphs.

Students graph their linear equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students examine their lines and relate it to the slope or rate of change. They relate the steepness of the line to the slope being positive, negative or zero.
