Teach electricity and magnetism concepts (magnetic force, compasses, electromagnets, static electricity, electroscopes, electrical circuits, generating electricity) through hands-on experiments.
Teach environmental science concepts (pollution, water quality, ecosystems, recycling, population, energy conservation) through hands-on labs framed as 'lab team' investigations.
Teach human body/health science concepts (body systems, growth, heredity, circulation, respiration, digestion, nutrition, skin, bones, muscles, senses, brain, and substance-safety topics like alcohol and tobacco) through hands-on activities.
Teach elementary-level health science concepts (senses, sound and hearing, smell/taste/touch, the brain, heart/circulation, breathing, digestion, calories, bones, muscles, health superstitions, health-related careers, and tobacco awareness) through hands-on experiments.
Teach elementary-level entomology concepts (what makes an insect an insect, and the traits/life cycles of butterflies/moths, grasshoppers, crickets, beetles, ants, bees, and flies) through hands-on experiments.
Teach physical science concepts (matter, properties of matter, elasticity, motion, and Newton's First Law) through hands-on experiments, framed around Newton's laws.
Teach plant science/botany concepts (characteristics of living things, seeds, flowers/pollen, leaves, plant cells, trees, plant classification, and plant survival) through hands-on experiments.
Science Action Labs Science Fun: Activities to Encourage Students to Think and Solve Problems This amazing resource is a practical teaching tool designed for educators, both in traditional classroom settings and homeschool environments.
A collection of 31 hands-on science 'puzzler' activities and demonstrations covering physics concepts (gravity, magnetism, balance, motion, light) framed as mysteries for students to solve.
A set of 23 hands-on science labs that teach the scientific method (observation, hypothesis, communication, decision-making) through varied classroom activities and mini-experiments.
A hands-on physical-science workbook of lab activities exploring sound and light concepts (e.g. mirrors, sound waves, rainbow lab) for classroom demonstration or individual student use.
A 23-chapter set of hands-on science labs and activities exploring water science topics for upper elementary/middle school students: water pressure, buoyancy, chemistry, surface tension, ice, purification, conservation, weather, and water's role in life.
Three simple hands-on early-childhood science craft/experiment activities: making giant bubbles, building a windsock to explore wind, and testing which objects sink or float.
This resource is a Science Popcorn Activity Heat Transfer Lab . This activity is focused on Convection, Conduction, & Radiation. Students will follow procedures, document their observations, collect data and so much more.
A set of three hands-on preschool science activities introducing the five senses, primary/secondary color mixing, and basic physics concepts (gravity, friction, inclined planes) through play-based experiments.
A set of three hands-on preschool science activities introducing sound/vibration, weather observation and tracking, and static electricity through play-based experiments and crafts.
A hands-on plant-growing investigation booklet that teaches what plants need to grow and has students track and record a real seed's growth over several weeks.
Scientific Method - Lab Station Activity This lab station activity allows students to apply their understanding of the scientific method by moving around the classroom and working with peers. Stations focus on creating hypotheses and procedures, identifying variables, analyzing data and drawing conclusions, and formulating testable…
Bundle of 6 simple hands-on science investigations for practicing the scientific method (hypothesis, variables, data collection, analysis).
Two-week mini-unit introducing the scientific method and science process skills to upper-elementary students through notes, vocabulary, hands-on experiments, a study guide, and a quiz.
The M&M activity connects a color-count investigation with graphing and a results write-up. A companion lesson introduces the scientific-method steps through student slides and a completed teacher version. Provide the sample materials and model recording data before groups compare their findings.
This Brain Observation Lab uses a sheep brain to give students a true hands on experience. This lab is very flexible as it will work for any level student from English Learner - EL - to more advanced students.
