Students explore visosity of matter. They run tests of various liquid substances to observe and compare rates of flow of different substances. In addition, they relate viscosity to distance travelled by sample substances.

Students observe what happens when sugar is dissolved in water and when it is heated. They weigh the products after each of the two experiments on a balance scale. Pupils distinguish between physical and chemical changes. Students are...

Students comprehend that a chemcial change produce substances with a different composition and physical and chemcial properties. They state the differences between physical and chemical changes. Pupils observe changes that occur during...

In this art worksheet, students use this worksheet to analyze any photograph. Students learn how to study a photograph carefully, dividing it into quadrants and studying each section. Students then make a chart of the people, objects and...

Students study tree leaves to complete the activity, In this tree leaf experiment lesson, students observe, measure, and sort tree leaves individually, in groups, and in relationship to the entire tree.

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.

Learners study the design of snowflakes.  In this snow lesson, students discover the different shapes of a snowflake, and their similarities.  Learners study snowflakes outside, then create their own with popsicle sticks...

Students observe a balloon rocket and how it relates to Newton's Third Law of Motion. In this balloon rocket lesson plan, students make a balloon rocket out of balloons, clothespins, straw, fishing line, and duct tape.

Students study fungi and its characteristics.  In this fungi lesson students collect and observe fungi then answer questions on what they saw.
