What is Temperature and How Is It Measured?
Learners complete activities to measure temperature. In this temperature lesson, students read Geoffrey Groundhog Predicts the Weather and make a KWL chart about predicting weather. Learners discuss folklore about temperature and learn...
Curated OER
Keeping Cool
Students investigate the air conditioner units around the school. They chart the temperature by placing a thermometer in different situations and decide how to keep cool and save energy in the summer.
Curated OER
Keeping Warm
Fifth graders measure the temperature of water using a thermometer. They record the temperatures of water on a chart. Students use the temperature data to determine which materials are the best conductors of heat. They discuss their...
Curated OER
Sunlight and Heat
Students brainstorm about the sources of heat. They discuss that sunlight is one of those sources. Students complete a lab about cold water and warm water. They record the temperatures from each thermometer and discuss which container...

Fahrenheit vs Celsius
Students make a thermometer and write a paragraph about how they did it.
Curated OER
Computer Science: Temperature
Students conduct an experiment on heat transfer and how it works. They record the temperature in whatever environment is surrounding the container and run experiments that use at least two different ambient temperatures. Students...
Curated OER
Keep Cool
Pupils design an experiment to determine which type of container would be best to use to keep drinks cool on a hot day. Students test paper cups, styrofoam cups, and metal cans by filling them with ice water and they use a thermometer...
Curated OER
Weather Watchers
Students engage in this weather predicting lesson. They discover instrumentation used in the meteorological science. With this knowledge, they will create their own "low-tech" versions of weather instrumentation such as thermometers,...

Celsius Tells Temperature, Too
Second graders become aware that thermometer liquids expand or contract as temperature affects them.
Curated OER
What Will Be Next?
In this temperature worksheet, students analyze 6 Celsius thermometers and write the temperature under each one. Students find the pattern and write the next three temperatures that might come next.
