Students explore water and ice. In this physical science lesson plan, students participate in a science inquiry and observe the characteristics of ice and water. Students compare the differences between a solid and liquid and record...

Students explore snow. In this forms of water lesson, students read a story about snow, identify the types of snow found in Alaska, and learn Inuit words for snow. The lesson calls for an Intuit Elder to visit the classroom as a guest...

Students conduct an experiment. In this forms of water lesson, students observe ice to see what changes take place and then write in their journal about what they observed.

Young scholars explore the states of matter. In this physical science lesson plan, students observe what happens to water when it freezes and record observations. Young scholars then observe ice when it melts and record observations.

Students investigate the states of matter. In this physics lesson, students use water and ice to demonstrate the characteristics of a solid and liquid. Students record their observations as the state of the water changes.

Students explore the water cycle. In this water cycle lesson, students complete a hands-on activity that replicates the water cycle. Students record their observations.

Students investigate water in its solid and liquid form. In this states of matter lesson, students experiment to see what happens as water goes from a solid, ice, to a liquid, water, and back again. They write about and illustrate the...

Features a collection of hands-on activities, investigations, and explorations designed to engage students in learning about ice, both in the solar system and on planet Earth.

Educational resource invites users to understand the properties of water by first examining what water is and how we use it and then leads users to further information on the three states that water can exist.
