Foil Fun
Second graders be having hands-on experiences with three-dimensional solid shapes. They investigate the features of solid shapes and examine the names for them. They are introduced to making nets for 3D shapes.
Curated OER
Activity # 13 Float or Sink?
Students have seen that solids, which are more dense than a liquid, that sinks in that liquid and solids, which are less dense than a liquid, that floats on that liquid. They use a metal boat to float in water. Pupils comprehend that...
Curated OER
Molecules
Young scholars combine movement with science in this fun integrated lesson plan. When students are "liquid" they can "melt" or "ooze" at the end and when they are are "solids" they can "freeze" in a shape.
