-
What makes objects appear to have color? Two reading comprehensions combine with simple science experiments to explain color, light and shadow.
-
Students construct one of two versions of a pinhole viewer and then use the viewer to establish the diameter of the sun and the moon. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science series.
-
Shows how an alternating pattern of blocks is stronger than straight lines. This is a good introduction to concepts of strength and construction.
-
Explains how catapults work and how they were used in medieval times. Lots of hands on work for comparing three classes of lever.
-
A Tesla coil with the words "brain power". Three desk tags.
-
Picture of a robot plugging in.
-
Light and your eyes: cones, colors, and rods. Two reading comprehensions explain how we perceive color and how night vision works.
-
Lined pages for recording facts, ideas, sources, materials, notes, experimental process notes (hypothesis, etc.). A great prompt tool.
-
Ten pages to help organize a science project.
-
A cooking thermometer, batteries, and a hot dog are part of this popular science experiment.
-
A fact-filled reading comprehension, explaining and defining light. Our light units are available at four different levels, with increasingly advanced vocabulary and concepts.
-
A detailed set of instructions for a series of experiments on plant growth under a variety of circumstances.
-
Comprehensions on light and atoms, rainbows, scattered light, and shadows. Each comprehension is reviewed with great (and easy) science experiments to bring the concepts to life.
-
This "hands-on science" lesson helps students address the question of what plants do with all the water they absorb. This lesson includes a reading comprehension.
-
A science project of raising and observing pond organisms in an aquarium at home or in the classroom, with instructions and observation form. Part of the abcteach series, Where We Find Science.
-
In this hands-on science project, students will learn how leaves change color in the fall.
-
Two fact-filled and easy-to-understand reading comprehensions, explaining and defining light. Our light units are available at four different levels, with increasingly advanced vocabulary and concepts.
-
A one page reading comp with four experiments for understanding air pressure, with completion and matching questions.
-
Fictional short story about a student science engineering project carried out at a zoo exhibit. Help students value planning and consider potential outcomes and consequences. Middle/High school level.
-
A set of seven experiments that demonstrate that the sciences of biology, chemistry and physics are part of our life at home. Set 1 of a series of experiments titled Science at Home, includes a description of experiments, scientific method report form and an explanation of probable results.
-
A set of two experiments about static electricity, which includes directions, an experiment report form and an explanation of probably results. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science - Science at Home series.
-
A set of four physics experiments in our Where We Find Science series that demonstrate the properties of the surface tension of water. Includes a Scientific Method report form and an explanation and results page.
-
An explanation of Archimedes discovery of the formula to measure density of an object using water. Includes directions to conduct an experiment using the Archimedes' method, plus a report form. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science; Science in Water Series.
-
Build a pond project, part of our "Where we Find Science" series. This project offers opportunities to observe biology in a pond. Instructions for building a pond, plus explanation of possible results and a form for observations of changes in pond are included.
-
A set of four experiments in our Where We Find Science series that demonstrate bouyancy and density of water. Includes a Scientific Method report form and an explanation and results page.
-

-
Instructions for a science project of raising amphibians in an aquarium, with report form. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science: Science in Water series.
-
Two simple experiments help students understand the movement of the sun and its relationship to the seasons and the time of day. Includes observation, note taking, sketching, building a simple sundial and a scientific method report form. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science Series.
-
An advanced astronomy project in which student builds a device to measure the position of the sun in the sky and record its changes, to help understanding of seasons. Includes scientific method report form. Part of abcteach's Where We Find Science Series.
-
Predict whether an object will float or sink. Students make and test hypotheses with this simple experiment. Includes detailed instructions and pages for recording predictions and results.
-
