Energize biologists with colorful images in an activity that captivates the imagination while demystifying the subject of cellular respiration. Participants build comprehension skills and access core content knowledge by analyzing text...

Students examine the movement of the water table and saturation zones. They describe the movements of the water table and locate the saturation zones. Students identify the function of each saturation zone. They develop a model of the...

Students examine different rocks and find the many different colors in each and then compare these rocks with other rocks. Then they look at their rock collection and tell me the colors they see. Students also put each rock in the bowl...

Students examine how they affect water quality of those who live downstream after identifying rivers and river basins in Kansas.

Fifth graders experiment using a Meniscus. In this volume lesson, 5th graders identify the volume of irregular objects using the process of water displacement. Students record data and draw conclusions.

Students identify important aspects of water quality such as slainity and turbidity. They test two of the water quality parameters and determine the quality of the water. In addition, they construct two sets of graphs based on data...

Learners identify major rivers in Kansas, identify the direction which they flow and identify tributaries of the Kansas River. Students examine what occurrences upstream influence water quality downstream.

Students observe a model of the distribution of the earth's water and compare the relative volumes and percentages of types of water on earth.

Students make coffee filter eggs. In this art activity, students cut coffee filters into egg shapes. Food coloring is added to water and students drop the colors onto the eggs using a eyedropper. Students allow the filters to dry and...

Students read books, learn about the letter p, and eat goldfish crackers all to learn about penguins. In this penguins lesson plan, students also color black and white pictures of penguins.

students investigate light levels under the ocean by conducting several simulations. After creating solutions representing seawater, they shine a light sensor on it to discover how light diffuses and is absorbed by the impurities in the...

Students answer the question, 'Should San Diego reclaim its water for fresh drinking water?' They make a poster explaining the position: "Yes," drink reclaimed water; or "No," don't drink reclaimed water.

Learners learn about and discuss the important symbols that represent America. In this symbols lesson plan, students cut out pictures of the bald eagle, American flag, Liberty Bell, and more. They color them when they have them cut out.

Students complete lessons on a butterfly life cycle, moon phases, hot water, and shadows. In this science lesson plan, students complete activities where they read books, look at demonstrations, and complete experiments.

Students explore biology by participating in a dietary habit activity. In this food chain lesson, students discuss their own diets and the animals we feed upon daily. Students create a poster demonstrating the animals that we feed upon...

Students make simple observations, test mixtures, and make generalized inferences from their observations. They observe bleeding of colored inks with water.

In this water worksheet, learners compare and contrast elements and compounds. Students define chemical symbols, chemical formulas, and chemical properties. This worksheet has 19 short answer questions.

Students study the four layers of soil while identifying the substances that each level is composed up. They investigate the properties of soil such as color, texture, water retention and the ability to maintain life by growing a plant.

In this water testing pre-lab worksheet, students describe positive ions, precipitate, and the Tyndall effect. This worksheet has 14 short answer questions.

Students create a painting of falling leaves. For this art lesson, students collect fallen leaves and paint over them using tempera or water color paint to make an outline. Students continue painting the leaves until their paper is...

Beginning biologists place a drop of food coloring into water of differing temperatures to observe the effect on the diffusion rate. They remove the shells from raw eggs and then experiment with osmosis over the remaining membranes....

Pupils examine the concepts of micelles, polarity, solubility, and properties of detergent in an experiment with milk, water, and food coloring. Students complete a Take-Home Challenge in which they experiment with the behavior of food...

Pupils experiment and create an original monochromatic painting. They define tint, monochromatic, and shade. They analyze their paintings objectively and determine the connection between color and emotion.

Learners use a pipette to mix small amounts of food coloring into water. They visualize the small quantities of parts per million and parts per billion. Contrary to the title, the lesson is about liquid amounts rather than gas amounts....
