Students investigate who stole the class pet by testing the chromatograph of different markers as a way to find the evidence that points to the perpetrator.

Students build a model of a cell using all edible materials. Students must do an oral presentation of the model.

In this lab, students will practice inquiry with some guidance. They will begin by observing brine shrimp that have hatched. They will formulate possible testable questions to investigate about brine shrimp. Then as a class they will...

For this physics lesson 4th grade learners investigate electrical circuits in greater depth than the FOSS unit used in a prior grade in school. Students become familiar with a computer simulation allowing them greater choices of...

By using inquiry skills, students will design and complete a lab investigation to gain an understanding of the concept of enzymes.

In this physics lab students will observe light bending as it enters a medium. Students will then be able to calculate the angle of the bent light and compare that with other students observations for like and different mediums.

This hands-on activity is an assessment of the students understanding of peptide and disulfide bonds formed during protein synthesis, and the structure of an amino acid (R-group plus the common structure that all amino acids share)....

Students build atoms of elements 1-20. The entire set can be hung from the ceiling in order of the Periodic Table to be referred to throughout the Chemistry class/unit. This is helpful when teaching bonding and patterns of the Periodic...

Students will use Vernier motion detector and Logger Pro software to first discover if air resistance of an industrial size coffee filter is a vtm or vt2m relationship (vt = terminal velocity). Once this relationship is found it will be...

In this classroom lab, students will investigate the characteristics of a chemical change. Students will also provide a definition of what constitutes a physical change through observation of several examples. Students will use/create...

In this physics lab students investigate whether Ohm's Law applies to common electric devices. Students submit their findings in a written report or class discussion.

Pupils design an investigation about one of the five senses using the process of the scientific method.
