Young scholars engage in a study about the planets and create a poster as one of the projects during the study. They create individual charts for mapping the solar system so the locations can be found in mock space missions to other...

Students examine the cargo load that is needed during the simulation of a space rescue mission. They brainstorm in order to think of possible things needed onboard in storage. Then students create an inventory list that includes water...

In this science worksheet, students study 16 detailed color pictures of plant species. Students identify each plant. There is no space to write the name of the plant and it is assumed this is done orally. Answers are provided upside down...

Learners create a business card after researching their location in space and determining their Galactic Address.

Students explore what causes differences in density. They observe an models depecting atoms, compounds, and molecules. Students determine if there is air in between atomic bonds. They study the structure and spacing of molecular bonds.

Young scholars role-play and communicate that objects in space have describable properties, locations, and movements. Students identify and communicate effectively that Earth is the third planet from the Sun in the solar system, eight...

Students brainstorm a list of all the functions organisms carry out and how they carry them out. In groups, they are given the smallest and highest level of organization in organisms and are to fill in the missing spaces. To end the...

For this planet names worksheet, students look at the pictures, unscramble the 5 words on the left and write the planet names in the boxes. In addition, students use the identified letters to learn another space fact.

For this weather data worksheet, students use this worksheet to record data about temperature, wind speed, and more. Students complete 18 spaces on the chart.

Students determine the equipotential lines surrounding a charged object. In this physics activity, students draw lines to identify areas. They relate the spacing of the field lines to the strength of the charge.

Second graders examine the properties of liquids and their classifications. They compare and contrast cups of different liquids and record their findings in journals. Students observe how liquids flow at various speeds and that unlike...

First graders gain knowledge about solids, liquids and gases by taking a look at the things around them. They have to classify certain picture cards based on which category they feel the picture falls under. As a whole, the class...

Fourth graders observe demonstrations how heated air rises and becomes a low pressure area. After watching several teacher-conducted experiments, 4th graders, in groups, discuss and answer questions in their journals. Finally, they...

Second graders discover how matter changes from one state to another by observing melting ice cubes. They decide on means to warm the ice and predict what will happen. Students record how long it takes for the cubes to melt.

Students visualize the relation between acceleration and velocity in 2 dimensions. They are introduced to Newton's first law,and Newton's second law. Students work on an exploration activity where they condsider an example of a...

Fifth graders explore how coral polyps increase the chances of egg and sperm meeting after being released into the vast ocean waters.

In this moon worksheet, students determine the angular size of the moon and draw a scaled model of the Earth, moon, and sun and given distances and positions. This worksheet has 4 problems to solve.

Fourth graders create spreadsheets, explore patterns and make predictions based on the information. They select the appropriate graph to display the spreadsheet data. They search and sort prepared data bases to gain knowledge for...

Young scholars determine if the particles are coming from above, below, or from one side or the other by using a circular array of scintillators

Students assess how much harm UV radiation can have on your skin and how much protection is provided by sunblock, sunglasses and clothing. They experiment with UV index numbers and the amount of exposure risk of skin damage for any given...

Students discover how molecules are in constant motion. Through a simple experiment of water containing food coloring, they observe the drops of coloring move even though the water is still. Role-playing as molecules, students stand up...

Fourth graders discover earth's air pressure through observation of several experiments. In the "Experiment of the Leaky Bottle," they observe how air pressure forces water out of the lowest hole farther than the holes above it. In...

A simple activity goes a long way in demonstrating the property of porosity to your rock hounds. They will mass a specimen of dry sandstone and then soak it in a pre-measured amount of water. After seven minutes, they once again measure...

Cover one-point perspective through observation and practice. Class members examine several works of art that use one-point perspective, look at magazine images to find the vanishing points and horizon lines, and draw their own city...
