Students will engineer a game with rules and directions to help understand and practice proportional ratios with as little material needed as possible.
An introduction to Kepler's 1st Law and ellipses. The lesson includes some guided notes for students as well as a hands on activity where students will draw, measure, explore, and conduct calculations
7th Grade students will apply what they have learned about electricity and magnetism to understand electromagnets. Students will explore electromagnets and investigate the factors that affect the
This engaging lesson is an introductory lesson regarding the size and scale of the Universe and objects within. This was designed for high school Astronomy but is easily useable with ages down through
In this physics lesson, students carry out a lab activity to determine Hooke's Law and investigate spring constants.
Students will design a balloon rocket. They will then create a fish line track for the rocket to follow. The track will be able to me modified to test different angles of ascent. This will allow
Students will discover the relationship between mass and volume in relation to density through an inquiry lab. Students will take mass and volume data of several different solid substances and compare
The students receive a sample population of "bears" and use the colors and ratios to determine the genotypes of the captive bears and their parents.
The Mystery Box Investigation combines science concepts about properties of matter, how we use and identify matter based on its properties, and the mathematical concepts needed to calculate density
