Students use a model experiment to complete an experiment on yeast. In groups, they identify the independent and dependent variables and use the scientific method to complete the activity. They record their observations and discuss them...

Students describe and compare the layers of the atmosphere. They explain how to measure the temperature of the atmosphere. They also explain what causes the atmosphere to heat up in some places more than in others.

Students identify the elements that make up the earth's weather. Begin by having students pretend they are hiking along a mountain ridge. It's been sunny and warm all day, but you see a dark line of clouds moving from the west.

Students examine solubility and the significance of water.  In this aqueous solution lesson plan students complete a lab activity on soil profiles.

Students keep a weather log. In this weather and temperature lesson, students discuss the information that can be obtained from a map and lead into a discussion about temperature. Students watch a video about temperature and...

In this temperatures worksheet, students read 7 clues and use their answers to fill in the temperature chart. All problems pertain to the rise and fall of temperatures in five cities.

Pupils explore the concept of collecting data as they collect data on their graphing calculator about time, temperature, and light. Learners plot the data and create histograms and box and whisker plots to analyze the data.

In this specific heat worksheet, learners are given examples to find the specific heats of substances and to use the specific heats to find the changes in temperatures of substances. Students solve eighteen problems using what they...

In this Little Ice Age worksheet, students read about changes in weather and temperature resulting in changes in rain fall and glacier movement. Students answer three critical thinking questions about the Little Ice Age that occurred as...

In this climographs worksheet, students use two given climographs to compare the climate of West Palm Beach and Katmandu. They answer questions about the climographs and about the similarities and differences between the two climates.

For this gas worksheet, learners solve eight problems using the combined gas law to find either pressure, volume or temperature of a gas.

In this gases worksheet, learners use the concepts of Graham's Law of diffusion to determine the velocity of gases and molecules. They describe kinetic energy and how it relates to the mass and velocity of objects.

In this kinetic theory worksheet, students are given fifteen questions about gases and their kinetic energy, how temperature effects kinetic energy, and the results of changing conditions of gases on the kinetic energy. They convert from...

In this gases worksheet, students answer six questions related to the kinetic molecular theory of gases. They summarize the kinetic theory and they draw diagrams to illustrate different components of the theory.

In this absolute zero worksheet, students experiment with a closed-end syringe and a ice bath and boiling water. They record volumes of gases in the syringe as well as temperatures of the water and they plot their experimental data. They...

In this temperature problem solving worksheet, students read a story problem about the temperature variations in one day. Students answer 4 questions in which information they know is organized and a plan is made to calculate the...

In this moon crash worksheet, students research information about the moon. In a given scenario, students decide which emergency supplies to take in order to survive on the moon.

In this climate worksheet, students will compare the climates of tropical and polar regions. Then students will determine what factors scientists use to determine the climate of a region. This worksheet has 6 short answer questions.

In this weather worksheet students use a weather map to answer given questions. Students answer questions using map symbols and make predictions based on map. Students create additional questions with answers using the same map.

Students participate in a hands-on activity in which they observe the effect of temperature on the rate of chemical reactions. Using Alka Seltzer tablets in different temperatures of water, they record the amount of time it takes each...

Students begin their examination of the climate zones found around the world. Using a software program, they identify the relationship between the vegetation, climate and temperatures of the different zones. They also plot coordinates...

Students explore chemical cahnges and the effect of temperature on chemical mixturees, They make observations of the behavior and appearance of certain chemical mixtures and reactions.

Students investigate the heart beat of zebra fish in timed intervals. They record the heart beats and average three counts to display in their data tables. They repeat these steps increasing the adrenaline solution.

Students make a model of a polar bear and discuss why fur/skin color is important. They also perform a simple experiment using black and white socks to determine how color affects temperature.
