Physical Science

In this hands-on lesson, students learn about earthquake engineering by researching, designing, and testing toothpick-marshmallow buildings for earthquake resistance.

Problem - Solution is a type of text structure. The objective of this lesson is for students to further understand defining problems and identifying solutions. Students will make a 3D model using

This hands-on lesson provides an opportunity for students to use observation as a way to build the big idea about energy around us. Students are encouraged to explore everyday items in the classroom

Students will build a propulsion system that can deliver a payload to a given location in this engaging paper rocket engineering lesson. Students think critically and problem solve as they work

In this engaging lesson, students build a model rocket. They design an experimental procedure based on their understanding of the forces acting on the rocket. They predict values using a flight

In this lesson, students will experience for themselves what insulators and conductors are in the field of electrical engineering. Students will learn how to use a Steve Spangler Energy Stick to

In this hands-on lesson, students will learn about the concept of Mechanically Stabilized Earth & Newtons Third Law. They hypothesize, conduct experiments using layered sand cubes, analyze results, &

In this lesson, students will use the LEGO BricQ Motion Prime set to build a gymnast powered car that can experiment with the three Laws of Motion. Students can modify the car to move in different

In this lesson, the students will observe matter that has endured a temperature change. They will make predictions about what they think will happen to a form of matter after choosing if it will be
