Students work in teams conducting an experiment that demonstrates why the height of an inclined plane affects the speed at which an object travels. They record data on a chart and calculate speed to reveal the results of three trials at...

Learners predict if the height of a ramp affect how far an object travels. They design and conduct an experiment to test their predictions. The results are recorded and a graph is created to show the relationship between ramp height and...

Students describe the movement of the Earth as it relates to the sun. They construct a permanent compass rose and use it to find directions.

Sixth graders read Hatchet by Gary Paulsen, discuss refraction, identify example of it from novel, and perform classroom experiments demonstrating refraction and reflection.

Students examine the topic of depression and how it relates to their own lives. They watch and discuss a video, complete a worksheet about their own experiences, and in small groups design and display a poster.

Fifth graders view a Powerpoint show about reflecting light. They experiment through a reflection simulation on the internet. Students complete the activity by using mirrors and light to complete send light to a specified spot.

Students study the physical force of linear momentum by investigating collisions. They analyze the difference between elastic and inelastic collisions. They calculate linear momentum.

Students investigate the concept of a shadow. They design a tool to create shadows for an experiment. They make observations and record the size and shape of shadows. The lesson plan contains background information for the teacher to...

Learners complete a variety of activities related to the book "Apples and Pumpkins." They listen to the book, generate a list of words starting with P, taste foods made from apples, and sequence the events from the book. Students then...

In this trigonometric ratios worksheet, students solve and complete 10 various types of problems. First, they write the degrees listed in radian measure. Then, students find the exact ratios for each equation. They also find the value of...

In this further differentiation worksheet, students solve and complete 7 various types of problems. First, they sketch the graph of each equation using a stationary point. Then, students find the stationary points of each and describe...

In this inverse functions worksheet, 9th graders solve and graph 10 different problems that include the inverse of various functions. First, they determine if the coordinates given is the inverse of a function given. Then, students use...

In this number puzzles worksheet, 3rd graders fill in and solve 3 shaped puzzles by following the directions on each one precisely. Students deal with numbers from 1 to 13.

In this light and shadows instructional activity, students find 5 transparent items and 5 opaque items from the classroom and categorize them underneath their appropriate headings. Students look at 4 boxes with shadows and draw a little...

In this word maze worksheet, students start at the arrow and find the first word, moving across or down. The second word follows the first word and also moves across or down through the maze. Students follow this to find the 8 words...

In this word maze worksheet, learners navigate through the word snake. They start at the arrow and find the first word, moving across or down like a snake. The second word follows on immediately from the first. Students write the 8 words...

For this gas laws worksheet, learners solve ten problems using the various gas laws such as Boyle's Law, Charles' Law, and the ideal gas law. Students demonstrate an understanding of the relationships between temperature, pressure and...

In this gas lab, students use a pressurized soda bottle with a closed end syringe to simulate Boyle's Law. They alter the volume and watch the effects on the pressure of the gas. They plot their data and answer eight post lab questions.

In this acceleration worksheet, learners solve 14 problems including finding work done on an object, the speed of an object, the distance traveled and the acceleration.

Students develop a scientific model of gas behavior. In this gas lesson plan, students observe different balloons filled with different densities of gases. They complete an activity where they model the behavior of gases using marbles, a...

In this Earth's rotation and day length worksheet, students are given a table with the period of geological time, the age of the Earth and the total days per year. Students calculate the number of hours per day in each geological era,...

In this power law function worksheet, students use data from the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space telescope to apply the power law function to physical phenomena. Students use a graph to solve four problems.

In this graphing worksheet, students read information and study diagrams about graphing. Students complete 3 graphing activities.
