Measuring volume can be a mystery for 5th graders, but this hands-on activity gives the gift of discovery. The volume of simple rectangular solids and irregular shapes are calculated through various methods including displacing liquid in...

Young scholars determine the volume of water they displace. In this earth science lesson, students calculate the total water displaced by the world's population. They evaluate whether or not this value is enough to raise the sea level...

Students determine their lung capacity by completing a science experiment with a bottle of water. For this lung science lesson, students discuss the lungs' purpose. Students complete an experiment to determine their lung capacity using a...

Students explore tsunami through various hands-on activities. In this earth science activity, students explain how they are formed. They create tsunami and earthquake models in the lab to observe how they are generated.

Students identify the different requirements for photosynthesis to take place. In this space science lesson, students simulate conditions in Saturn to investigate if photosynthesis is possible there. They use data and observations...
