Learners explore the topic of air pollution. They complete a KWL chart, answer discussion questions, and define key vocabulary terms.

Students examine the causes and effects of air pollution, as well as ways in which various industries and government organizations are aiming to control it. They research the topic on the Internet and create posters based on their research.

Students investigate the effect of temperature on the density of air by putting an uncovered bottle in a bucket of hot water. Then they place a balloon over the mouth of the bottle. They repeat the procedure using ice water and explain...

In this ecology worksheet, students study the Air Quality Index in their area and complete 8 short answer questions related to this topic.

Students investigate whether air exerts a force. In this physics lesson, students calculate air pressure using force and area information.

Students predict what happens to the balloon as the water in the flask boils. In this physics lesson, students explain why they made such prediction. After the demo, they give some real life examples of this concept.

Students research and find information on air pollution. In this air pollution lesson plan, students answer short answer questions about air pollution. 

Students study the concepts of air pressure, air speed, and gravity as it relates to airplanes.  In this how do airplanes fly lesson plan, students study the basics of flight. Then reinforce their fine motor skills by creating...

Students examine how engineers utilize the wind.  In this wind lesson students examine the different kinds of winds and measure wind direction. 

Students examine the different parts of a plant and each ones role.  For this exploratory lesson students complete several activities including a game of charades.

Students experiment with air. In this air lesson, students tape one end of a strip of paper down and blow on it. They place several items in front of the strip to see which items stop the air and which items the air can move around. 

Students read a book and have a class discussion about the air around them. In this air lesson plan, students learn about properties of air, and discuss other gases they have observed.

In this law of action and reaction worksheet, students build a bubble powered rocket using a film canister, paper and effervescing tablets to create bubbles inside the canister of the rocket. The pressure inside causes the canister to...

In this properties of air worksheet, students experiment with a jar, a plastic bag and rubber bands to simulate that air takes up space and exerts pressure. They make observations and answer questions about their experiment.

In this composition of the air worksheet, students answer questions about the air, what it is composed of and the components of air such as the ozone layer, fog and rain.

In this earth science worksheet, students read a poem about the wind and learn why the wind blows. After reading the poem and informative paragraphs that follow it, students answer 2 questions regarding the information they read....

In this climate worksheet, students read 4 statements about different causes of climate patterns or weather changes. Students write in the effect of these causes in this graphic organizer.

In this clouds and rain worksheet, learners will complete 6 statements that show how clouds and rain are formed and what effect that has to the air.

Young scholars are given maps depicting two or more air masses and they then categorize bodies of air by temperature and moisture characteristics. They recognize large regions of similar type air. Students are given a map of air...

Students use a set of maps depicting a front passing through the state to identify two distinct air masses and the frontal boundary. They then deterine whether the front is moving in time and in what direction the front is moving.

Fourth graders participate in a demonstration lesson using bubbles in which they determine that air fills the bubbles. Next, they work in small groups as they they experiment with the properties of air at separate work stations. After...

Students investigate the concept of a carpool and its contributions to either reducing or increasing air pollution. They conduct research using a variety of resources for background information. The information is used to write a play...

Students investigate Bernoulli's principle of air pressure and how it relates to the lift of an airplane. Students identify various Aeronautical vocabulary terms. Students construct a paper glider and experiment with the control surfaces...

Students learn to recognize air as an actual substance and come to understand that clean air is important and why. They become aware of adverse effects that air pollution can cause and examine how simple steps can be used to keep our air...
