Within each unit, students engage with a phenomenon, complete hands-on labs/investigations and STEM design challenges, read passages and take guided notes, fill in interactive-notebook pages and graphic organizers, complete practice worksheets and vocabulary activities, and complete exit tickets, quizzes, unit tests…
Complete vocabulary journal entries, participate in hands-on stations (using thermometers, hand lens, balance, ruler, tape measure), record and graph collected data, fill in guided notes on the scientific method, and take an end-of-unit quiz.
Read chapter content, participate in labs/experiments/demonstrations for each of 14 chapters (e.g., 'Building a Sextant'), answer group-discussion questions, and complete an 'Imagination Time' creative-writing prompt (invent a myth explaining the universe's origin); an answer key is provided.
Participate in hands-on classroom experiments and activities organized by weather topic (indoor/outdoor activities of varying length, some requiring adult supervision), including language, math, science, geography, art, and design/technology activities tied to each weather theme; exact per-chapter worksheets/tasks…
Students engage with phenomenon hooks, conduct hands-on investigations/labs, read passages and take guided notes, complete worksheets and graphic organizers, keep an interactive science notebook, and complete exit tickets, quizzes, unit tests, and STEM design projects.
Students read short science explanations, answer questions, and complete hands-on activities/experiments such as testing hypotheses about plant needs, simulating animal adaptations (bird beaks, bat hearing), building a simple lever model of the elbow, and observing weather phenomena (snowflakes, air pressure).
Students read informational text on weather, air pressure, hurricanes, and tornadoes; build a barometer and observe air-pressure changes; do a hands-on air-pressure demonstration with a plastic jug; complete named topic pages on hurricane formation, hurricane parts, hurricane alerts, the Saffir-Simpson scale…
Read short informational passages ('What is a Scientist?', 'The Scientific Method', a worked ice-melting experiment example) and complete reading-response questions, word lists, five-senses description, a word search, word-part matching, a secret-code decoder, a maze, and a 'scientist application' writing page.
Students carry out short experiments/demonstrations (e.g., acting out Earth's rotation and revolution with a partner), answer discussion and comprehension questions tied to each lab.
A full science workbook (Book E of the 'Simple and Fun Science' series, ages 9-11) teaching life science concepts (cells, osmosis, plant/animal classification, plant responses to environment and light, tree age) through hands-on investigations.
Participate in shared reading and writing tasks: identify a target letter/sound, practice writing, use core/fringe vocabulary words, retell the story sequence, answer WH comprehension questions, use sentence stems, complete character webs, and do a related art project and science experiment.
Complete a sequence of worksheets and hands-on activities across three sub-units: Moving Plates (e.g. Pangaea map puzzle, an egg-based Earth-structure activity), Why the Earth Shakes (e.g. seismic-waves hands-on activity, liquefaction hands-on activity, rating earthquake damage), and Tsunamis (e.g. an outdoor…
A full science workbook (Book A of the 'Simple and Fun Science' series, ages 4-6) teaching science process skills (observing, sorting, comparing, recording, classifying) through hands-on activities across life science, plants, animals, the human body, and weather topics.
Students complete a vocabulary wordsearch, worksheets classifying matter/non-matter and true/false questions on states of matter, a crossword on elements, quizzes on atoms, a DNA-themed worksheet on molecules, a poster-making activity on metal/non-metal elements, and hands-on experiments (e.g. freezing water, baking…
Read content pages about the types of volcanoes and how/why they erupt; build a 3-D paper volcano model (cut and glue); conduct and record hands-on experiments (e.g., a volcano inflation demonstration, a gelatin volcano, a volcanic-gases experiment) using data record sheets; complete culminating writing/creative…
Read narrative chapters on the history of flight (mythology, balloons, gliders/kites) and the Wright brothers' lives and achievements (bicycle shop, Kitty Hawk experiments, first flyer, later fame); participate in discussions and hands-on experiments (e.g., balloon experiments, kite flying); build craft/model projects…
Complete overhead-note-based worksheets and activities (electricity word search, an atom quiz, a lightning worksheet, a toilet-tube flashlight experiment, an insulator/conductor test-circuit experiment, a Thomas Edison reading activity, review questions and a crossword), then take part in a role-play debate as…
Provide ten hands-on winter-themed science experiments for elementary students, designed to build observation, prediction, and problem-solving skills aligned to scientific-method practice.
Students write their name as 'Scientist', identify which pumpkin shape (tall/fat/round) matches their own and draw it, count the ribs on their pumpkin, measure its height and roundness (in cubes, then in inches), make and record a prediction and result for whether the pumpkin will sink or float, compare its weight to…
Draw and write about prior knowledge and wonderings about pumpkins; observe and describe a pumpkin using senses (see/hear/feel/smell); compare four different pumpkins by size/appearance; predict and record a sink-or-float experiment; participate in and record a pumpkin dissection (labeling shell, stem, seeds, flesh…
