Barnacles: Harder than Cement
Fourth graders watch the movements of the complex animal hidden inside the tiny barnacle shells. This instructional activity allows students to study the behavior, adaptation, and larval stage of the barnacle.
Curated OER
Qualitative Vs. Quantitative
Fourth graders examine the difference between qualitative and quantitative observations by doing a simple lab activity. This lesson can be used at any grade level. It involves the basic observation process skill.
Curated OER
Our Class Record Book
Second graders, in groups, prepare a list of proposed record ideas for the class book.
Curated OER
Precipitation
Students write their own newspaper article about a weather story using newspapers and a weather records worksheet.
Curated OER
Understanding Cloud Formation
Learners explore air and clouds by watching demonstration. They perform an experiment to measure air pressure changes.
Curated OER
Weather Predictions
Fourth graders explore meteorologists. They explore symbols on a weather map and make five day forecasts.
Curated OER
Weather Myths
Fourth graders relate myths to weather phenomenon. They write and illustrated a weather myth and present it to the class.
Curated OER
Weather Records
Students write newspaper articles using a "weather record" worksheet and information they find in newspapers.
Curated OER
Teaching about Conductivity
High schoolers explore conductivity and productivity in aquatic systems.
Curated OER
Temperature and Brine Shrimp Eggs
Students determine the optimal temperature at which brine shrimp eggs hatch and develop. They evaluate the changes, if any, which occur in a brine shrimp culture at various temperatures.
Curated OER
Frozen Film
Students are introduced to the topic of light interference through this hands-on activity. They observe how light reflects off two surfaces and then meets to form an interesting variation of color on a film surface.
Curated OER
Spectral Surprise
Students experience a model that produces, separating, and displaying spectral colors.
Curated OER
The Pressure's Off
Students investigate air pressure with four hands-on activities. They observe experiments by viewing Take a Look 2 #21.

Decomposers at Work!
Students design and conduct investigations that illustrate the process of decomposition. After a lecture/demo, students simulate the process of soil composting in the classroom. They closely chart the decomposition of their soil.
Curated OER
Go With the Flow!
Students experiment with heat transfer in a countercurrent system and describe the importance of conduction in heat-energy transfer.
Curated OER
River Study
Students study physical features of a local stream. They study how to identify water features on topographic maps.
Curated OER
The Heat is On
Third graders experiment with heat through investigations. They rub objects together and compare the relative differences in the amount of heat given off. They write in their journals about the results they find.
Curated OER
Stream Chemistry Monitoring
Pupils become familiar with real-world gathering of chemical data. The experience how the science is done: the nature of analysis, data collection, interpretation, and presentation. They study a nearby body of water for their experiment.
Curated OER
Water Quality Monitoring
Students study the water quality of a stream in their area, by measuring the temperature, pH, alkalinity and conductivity. They integrate biology with earth science when using the microscope to study the living organisms in the water.
Curated OER
Relative Humidity of Your School
Learners predict the location where the relative humidity the highest and lowest in and around their school. They use a sling psychrometer to measure the relative humidity of the various locations.
