Students will be working together to clean up an oil spill. They will discover what an oil spill is, what causes it, and what the effects are. The simulation is made using tinfoil baking dishes
Summary: Today we will observe and test five known mystery powders, identify examples of physical and chemical reactions to determine who committed the crime. Materials: 6 teaspoons or small spoons
Students will be using their science and math knowledge to engineer a golf course! This is a great way for students to use that knowledge in a real life way! Students get the chance to explore how
In this activity, students will make a model of the planets in the solar system and specifically model their distances to scale. Materials: Model of the Solar System-plastic 3D model String Push pins
Students will individually construct straw rockets. Using the launcher, students will learn the concept of Newton's third law of motion: for every action, there is a equal and opposite reaction
Students construct models of various molecules, create histograms of the frequency of elements, and diagram parts of an atom. Students will deepen their understanding of matter--that tiny particles
This lesson introduces the first law of motion to students through inquiry and total physical response. Materials needed are Short videos of first-law examples, with no labels or explanations
Let's Fly is a great lesson for those teaching forces and motion. Find some balsa wood flyers through a STEAM source (ideas included), take your students outside to play and let them observe. Then
You could do this together, step by step or give them all of the materials and information needed to do it by themselves. Could be a group activity or an individual activity so each student can take
