Static Electricity Experiments for Elementary School
Physics, Science, Grade 2, 3, 4, 5, Labs, Experiments, Activities
What is electrostatics, or static electricity? The buildup of electric charge on an object's surface is called static electricity, or electrostatics. This charge, which can be either positive or negative, is produced when a material's atoms acquire or lose electrons. When two objects rub against one another, electrons are transferred from one to the other, creating this static energy. As a result, one of the materials has a negative charge due to an excess of electrons, while the other material has a positive charge due to a lack of electrons. The feeling of a tiny electric shock after stepping on a rug and then contacting a metal surface is a typical example. Ten extremely basic and doable experiments that use or create static electricity are included in this useful e-book. Every experiment is safe and may be carried out using normal, commonplace items. Every experiment has comprehensive, step-by-step instructions. Lastly, each experiment is given a brief explanation so that elementary school pupils can understand it. Have fun exploring the marvels of static electricity through experimentation!

Periodic Table – Lab Station Activity
Science, Chemistry, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Labs, Experiments, Activities
This fully editable Lab Station Activity on the Periodic Table is meant to get your students out of their seats and engaged in the content. Each station not only offers a unique opportunity to test your students' knowledge (offer an opinion, answer questions based on a video or reading, draw, etc.), but also provides a fantastic learning opportunity where your kids are learning through assessment. Each station comes with a description card while some also contain more detailed instructions, a reading, questions to answer, etc. Students are equipped with a recording sheet (passport) to write their answers. There is almost no prep for you. Simply print the cards, lay them out around the room and you're all set. An answer key is also provided where applicable. This lab activity covers: - The Periodic Table - The History behind its creation ---------------------------------------------- Bonus Activities: To ensure your students don’t have any downtime between stations, your lab also includes a 10-word word scramble and word search, both with an answer key. You can use them as part of their mark, as a bonus so it’s not mandatory, etc. However you choose to use it, it will ensure that your students are always busy and never idle. Note: For stronger classes, I give the word scramble and for weaker ones, the word search. ----------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- How do the Lab Stations work? Each station is specially designed to be a unique complement to the material while at the same time, provide a valuable learning experience. Below is an overview of how each station works. In your activity , each will be tailored to the specific content. Station 1: Get Hands-On – using their creative skills, students are required to draw or build. Station 2: Research – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must research a specific question/issue surrounding the topic. Station 3: Explain yourself – students write down an opinion to a question in paragraph form. Station 4: Rest Station - students can use this time to catch up on work they didn't have time to complete at a previous station or prepare themselves for an upcoming one. Station 5 - Applicability reading – students read a short passage from an article, website, etc. which directly connects the classroom content to a real life application. Station 6: Test your knowledge – students answer 5 multiple choice questions then provide a written explanation for how/why they came to their conclusions. Station 7: Learn from the expert – using a classroom computer or their own device, students must watch a short video clip and answer the associated questions. They may stop, rewind and restart as often as they like during the time frame. Station 8 - Rest Station. Station 9: Become the question master – Students must create 2 multiple-choice questions, 2 true/false questions and 1 short answer question. Students must also supply the answers. ------------------------------- You might also be interested in my other lab station activities Biology: • Cell and the Cell Theory • The Human Digestive System • The Circulatory System • The Human Respiratory System • Mitosis and the Cell Cycle • Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis • Photosynthesis • Cancer: Cell Division Gone Wrong - Volume I • Cancer: Cell Division Gone Wrong - Volume II • Cell Membrane and Transport • Hearing and the Human Ear • The Human Eye • Genetic Material: DNA and RNA • The Nervous System • Energy Flow In Ecosystems Ecology and the Environment: • Ecosystems • The Classification of Living Things • Biodiversity and Invasive Species • The Carbon and Water Cycle • Climate Change • Photosynthesis • Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis • Ecological Succession • Plant Sexual and Asexual Reproduction • Earth's Seasons • Interactions Within Ecosystems Physics: • Newton's Three Laws of Motion • Kinetic and Gravitational Potential Energy • Current Electricity and Circuit Diagrams • Static Electricity • Light Optics and the Production of Light • Sound, Sound Energy and Speed • One and Two-Dimensional Motion • Uniform Acceleration • How Planes Fly • Refraction • Friction • Energy and Its Forms • Density and Buoyancy Space Science: • The Life and Death of Stars • The Moon and its Phases • Life In Space • Our Solar System • Solar and Lunar Eclipse • Earth's Seasons • Asteroids, Comets and Meteors Chemistry: • Atomic Model, Notation and Atoms • Chemical Reactions and Balancing Equations • Molecular and Ionic Compounds • Physical and Chemical Properties & Changes • Acids, Bases, and Neutralization Reactions • The Periodic Table • Single and Double Displacement Reactions • Balancing Chemical Equations • Synthesis, Decomposition and Combustion Reactions • Atomic Theory, Atomic Structure and Isotopes • Types of Bonds and Intermolecular Forces • The Mole/Avogadro's Number • Density and Buoyancy These station cards are meant to be used as a lab activity but can also be utilized in a review task before a test or a quiz.

"Water Bottle Rockets" eBook Excerpt
, Grade 6, 7, 8, Activities, Experiments
This is an excerpt that comes from the eBook titled “Middle Schoolin: 50 Stories about the Challenges, Humor, and Rewards of Teaching” written by Paul Rallion. This is from Chapter 33 titled Water Bottle Rockets. In science class, it is important to incorporate hands-on activities because students learn better by doing, according to John Dewey, considered by many the father of modern education. I remember when I was in second grade and my teacher talked about erosion. We went on a field trip to see an arid field with poor or no irrigation, and I was able to see what erosion was and what a field looked like when it occurred. I am sure it would have taken longer for me to learn what erosion was without that field trip. Now I found myself teaching Newton’s laws of motion. These three laws deal with how objects behave at rest and in motion. They are difficult concepts for some students to absorb at the middle school level. Doing this experiment helped my students grab the concept of Newton’s laws of motion better than if I had just talked about them. Students enjoy a hands-on experiment more than a lecture or reading a book. The bottom line is, if you teach science, do hands-on activities and experiments whenever possible. I hope you enjoy!

Force and Motion Science Experiment
Physics, Grade 3, 4, 5, Experiments, Activities
We all know that science is learned best with our hands! When we have the opportunity to really explore scientific concepts with an interactive approach, the learning just sticks! More than that, students love the chance to do experiments . This is a Force and Motion Science Experiment for your students to take part in. It may be used best with 3rd – 5th grade students. Students will work with a set of balls to apply what they know about force and motion. Students will complete the 2 page printable along the way. They will begin by making a hypothesis, as scientists do, before engaging in the experiment. Students will hypothesize which ball they believe will need the most wind-force for motion and which ball will need the least wind-force. You may choose to have your students decide on this hypothesis individually or in small groups. When students have wrapped up their hypothesis, they will move forward into the experiment portion. Students will follow the directions on page 1 to test out the force and motion of each ball. There is space for them to test out 6 balls. Your class may love completing this in small groups or with a partner. On page 2, they will reflect on the experiment by writing their particular outcome and formulating a conclusion about the wind-force needed to put balls in motion. I hope you enjoy!
