Students examine the changes in Earth's temperature. In this global warming lesson, students perform an experiment testing temperatures of soil. Students record their findings and discuss what made the differences in the soil temperature.

Students examine the evidence that scientists have used to support the existence of global warming and the greenhouse effect. How the concepts have been developed and evaluated form the focus of this lesson.

In this energy changes, rates of reactions and nuclear chemistry worksheet, students solve 14 problems to review concepts about endothermic and exothermic reactions, heat of combustion, heat of reactions, enthalpy, kinetic and potential...

Young scholars experiment with variety of materials to investigate, develop inferences, and differentiate between concepts of motion energy and heat energy, and the part played by friction in the transformation process.

In this Le Chatelier's Principle worksheet, students are given three chemical reactions along with various disturbances on the systems. They must indicate the effects of each disturbance on the concentrations of products and reactants in...

Students examine how variations in temperature are due to the Sun and length of day.  In this solar lesson students complete a lab activity using thermometers and artificial sunlight to see how the earth is heated.

Second graders analyze the effects of sunlight on a glass of water by using the thermometer to measure its temperature. They predict and measure the difference between water outside in the sun and shade and inside. They role-play a game...

Students examine how the human immune system responds to germs and explain what a fever is. They design a thermometer in order to further explore temperature before completing a temperature conversion worksheet. They detail the work of...

In this online interactive science worksheet, students answer 4 science questions with multiple choice answers regarding global warming. Students fill in the answer online to one question about temperature.

Learners investigate how energy travels through glass. In this energy usage lesson, students conduct an experiment in which they decide if window film affects how much energy travels through the glass. Learners use a journal to make...

In this absolute zero worksheet, learners experiment with a closed-end syringe and a ice bath and boiling water. They record volumes of gases in the syringe as well as temperatures of the water and they plot their experimental data. They...

High schoolers investigate the effects of temperature and concentration on the rate of reactions. In this "clock reaction" kinetics lesson plan, students change the concentration of one reactant and keep the second constant. An indicator...

Students conduct experiment to examine how tilt of globe influences warming caused by lighted bulb. They monitor simulated warming of their city by sun in winter and in summer by using light bulb, interpret results, and submit lab report.

In this thermodynamics learning exercise, students answer eight questions about reactions that involve change in entropy, they identify reactions as spontaneous or non-spontaneous and they solve problems using the laws of thermodynamics.

In this phase change worksheet, students read about the particles in substances that speed up and slow down for substances to change phases. They answer eight questions about phase changes, the states of matter and how changing...

Students study the types and parts of seeds and how they have evolved.  In this germination lesson students complete experiments that show the effects of variables role in seed germination. 

Students observe demonstrations to show the solubility of gases in liquids. In this gases lesson, students discover the relationship between temperature and pressure to and how they affect the solubility of gases in liquids. Students...

Students watch a demo which is a modification of an enzyme lab which is done as a "magic show". It's primary purpose is to tickle the curiosity of the student and grab interest before discussion of enzymes. It is also used to stimulate...

Students simulate lizard temperature regulation. In this Science lesson, students use a thermometer as a pretend lizard. Students must keep their lizard within a particular temperature range while moving through a specified course.

Students examine how heat moves from substance to another.  In this heat absorption lesson students identify ways that heat is transferred and analyze data.

Young scholars use authentic satellite data to produce plots and graphs of sea surface temperature as they explore the seasonal changes of the Gulf Stream.

Students study the effects of temperature and air expansion. In this temperature lesson, students discuss temperature and participate in a role play of low energy and high energy molecules. Students then discuss their activity and...

Class members engage in a STEM experiment and investigate how materials affect heating in a house by creating models of houses and using different top surface materials. They record the temperature inside the models and consider what the...

Why are greenhouse gases called greenhouse gases? Young Earth scientists learn about greenhouse gases though experimentation in the second installment of a 3-part series. They use lamps to model radiant energy as well...
