A 9-station rotation lab (7 activity stations + 2 rest stations) teaching single and double displacement reactions in chemistry through hands-on, research, reading, video and question-writing tasks.
Demonstrate diffusion through a simple STEM experiment using Skittles candy, warm water, and a plate.
teaches basic Mendelian genetics concepts (dominant/recessive alleles, genotype, phenotype, homozygous/heterozygous) through a coin-flip snowman-building activity
A hands-on science lab that teaches or reviews the scientific method (hypothesis, variables, data collection, conclusion) using a soap-bubble comparison experiment.
This heat worksheet is perfect for helping students understand how heat affects different objects. By placing items in direct sunlight or under a heat lamp, they can see the effects for themselves and record their observations.
Sound Energy Two Lesson Unit: Lesson Plan, Printables, Powerpoint and Quiz This comprehensive teaching resource introduces the concept of sound energy to grade 4 and grade 5 students. The Sound Energy mini-unit is divided into two distinct lesson plans supplemented with 10 printable worksheets, an animated powerpoint presentation, and…
This resource is a Space Mission Lab . Students will focus on chemical respiration in this lab activity. They will follow procedures, document their observations, collect data and so much more.
Provide a science center with reference posters and hands-on sorting/observation stations that introduce space concepts (gravity, planets, moon phases, day and night) to young learners.
Teach elementary students the basics of static electricity through a set of simple, safe hands-on experiments.
Engage students with static electricity/electrostatics concepts through a rotating 9-station hands-on lab activity.
Provide 28 independent hands-on STEM/science experiment activities with supply lists and instructions for classroom, camp, or independent/group use.

This instructional package has got it all - from engaging experiments to fun-filled activities that take you straight to the magical world of ice and snow. The Science of Melting - I Wanna Be An 'Ice Herald'! In this first experiment, get ready to…
Teach synthesis, decomposition, and combustion chemical reaction types through a rotating multi-station lab activity.
Problem-based learning (PBL) activity where students design and run an experiment (dropping a ball onto a target) to practice the scientific method, data analysis (mean, mode, standard deviation), and evidence-based argument writing.
A 9-station rotating lab activity teaching chemical bonding and intermolecular forces (ionic, covalent, hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole) through hands-on model building, research, reading, video, and quiz-writing tasks.
A multi-station high-school/middle-school physics activity that teaches uniform acceleration through hands-on experimentation, research, reading, video, and multiple-choice assessment.
Provide a comprehensive hands-on unit teaching the science of volcanoes - their types, eruption mechanics, and hazards - for grades 4-8, going beyond a basic baking-soda-and-vinegar model.
This Water Cycle Experiment Worksheet is a great resource for students to use to conduct their own experiment on the water cycle. By doing this experiment, students will have a better understanding of how the water cycle works. This worksheet is a great tool for teachers to use in their classrooms.
