Curated OER
Water-Holding Capacity
Students design and conduct an experiment to compare the water-holding capacity of sand, soil, and moss. They measure the change in weight for each material after adding the same amount of water to each material.
Curated OER
Heat Energy and Water
Fourth graders brainstorm the differences between heat and temperature. In groups, they determine the best way to melt ice without touching the ice. They record their observations and compare them with other groups. To end the lesson...
Curated OER
Crossing Polluted Waters
Young scholars investigate the different concepts involved in crossing a body of water that is polluted through a simulation that is supposed to be done without a boat. The goal of the lesson is for groups to role play after creating a...

Coral Reef: Water Cycle Center
In this coral reef water cycle worksheet, learners read 4 sections of a table the include sentences about the water cycle. They cut out the sentences and paste them on a poster that sequences the steps of the water cycle. They draw a...
Curated OER
Who Will Care for the Water?
Students discover how humans impact natural resources. In this environmental lesson, students identify water resources in the local area and construct a T-chart to compare the positive and negative effects humans have on water resources.
Curated OER
Water and Ice
Learners investigate the states of matter. In this physics lesson, students use water and ice to demonstrate the characteristics of a solid and liquid. Learners record their observations as the state of the water changes.
Curated OER
Forms of Water
Students experiment to show the three forms of water. They watch a "hand" made of ice as it melts observing and drawing what they see.
Curated OER
A Water Droplet's Experience in the Hydrologic Cycle
Students write a story from the perspective of a water droplet on a journey through the water cycle. They use the 6+1 Traits writing method to focus on voice in the writing as they create characters that their water droplet has...
Curated OER
Major American Water Routes
Sixth graders locate and identify the major bodies of water and waterways in the United States. Through a simulation activity, they describe how early explorers would have described their surroundings. Working in groups, they create...
Curated OER
Water Properties introduction
Students list items they know and want to know about water on personal K-W-L charts. They describe what happened during the warm up activity in their science journal. Students travel to four different stations and perform the different...
Curated OER
The Water Cycle
Second graders use the program HyperStudio to draw and describe the water cycle. In this science and technology lesson plan, 2nd graders will first become familiar with the water cycle by exploring books and websites in the classroom....
Curated OER
The Impact of Water Pollution on Global Peace
Tenth graders participate in hands-on activities that require them to consider the implications of water pollution. In this environmental stewardship lesson, 10th graders conduct 6 experiments pertaining to water pollution and discuss...
Curated OER
Water Cycle Experiment
In this water cycle activity, students look up four words pertaining to the water cycle and write the definitions. Students hypothesize what will happen to the height of the water level in a bottle. Students record and draw observations...
Curated OER
Sold! Ageless Water
Students read "Tuck Everlasting" by Natalie Babbitt. They create an advertisement for the spring water described in the story.
Curated OER
Water: Liquid or Solid?
First graders investigate how water can be both a liquid and a solid. They weigh popsicles and observe them as they write in their science journals. They measure the liquid as the popsicle melts and refreeze them to change them back...
Curated OER
Using GIS to Construct Water Table Maps and Flow Nets
Students examine how to use GIS software to analyze patterns of groundwater flow. Seepage lake elevation data from the Sand Hills of Nebraska is used to construct a water table map and flow net using Esri's Arc Map software.
