tag(s): experiments (65), gravity (52), newton (24)

In the Classroom

Bookmark this on your computer to use when planning lessons and units about gravity. Take advantage of these free lesson plans, for any unit in a physics class. Search the site to find the appropriate lesson tools, and bring them up on an interactive whiteboard or projector. A lot of the activities can be used for a class activity, or you could also break students up into cooperative learning groups and have them complete them seperately. Make sure to post this site on your teacher web page to allow students to access it both in and out of the classroom for review.

This regional science museum has collected several sets of lesson ideas, examples, and submissions by students and teachers. The site also includes information on how to create simple experiments using commonly available equipment. There are a number of idea starters, but you'll need to fill in the details to make the lessons work in your classroom.

tag(s): experiments (65)

In the Classroom

This site could not be any more perfect for a learning center or station. There are quite a few digital "labs" available on the site, pick the corresponding one for your unit and save it as a favorite on your desktop. Allow students to explore the site in pairs. The section of the site entitled "simply Science" offers some free activity ideas for in the home or in the classroom activities that would add some variety to any science unit. Note: a lot of the outdoor activities are geared towards those cold Minnesota winters, so if you're in a warmer area they may be less usable.

Students will be researching Global warming. If your students need an introduction or review of research skills you may want to parallel the POV lesson with R4S: Research for Success, reviewed here. As you work through the lesson, ask students to keep a journal about what they are learning and questions they still have. Subtitute paper and pen journals for a digital journal using a tool like Penzu, reviewed here; with Penzu you can add images or your own artwork as illustrations. As a culmination activity modify student's understanding by having them put together an interactive infographic about their learning for you and their peers using Infogram, reviewed here.

This is an extensive collection of science lessons and laboratory procedures compiled by the Great Lakes Collaborative and the University of Kansas. The site offers a highly detailed outline of science concepts, and it provides a selection of different lessons and lab resources for each concept. All lessons are available as Adobe Acrobat PDF files which can be downloaded and printed on your printer. The index page groups these by topic, and each page includes instructions and illustrations. Many of the projects are suitable for "do at home" activities. Great resource!

tag(s): experiments (65), scientific method (49)

In the Classroom

After introducing this site to your students, you can choose an activity to complement an area your are studying, or allow students choose an activity to pursue. Challenge students modify their learning by creating "visual" lab reports using Jimdo, reviewed here, to document experiments or illustrate concepts, such as the water cycle.

Exploratorium's DIY Exhibit Activities are part of the Exploratorium's collection of hands-on science and maker resources designed for learners of all ages. This section features interactive, do-it-yourself exhibit-style activities that use everyday materials to explore science, art, perception, and real-world phenomena, similar to the museum's exhibits. These activities are low-cost, teacher-tested, and classroom-ready, making them ideal for inquiry-based lessons, makerspace projects, or STEM exploration stations. Teachers can use them to spark curiosity, support experiential learning, and bring playful science investigations into the classroom without needing specialized equipment.

tag(s): experiments (65), inquiry (34), makerspace (39), STEM (371)

In the Classroom

Bookmark this site as a resource for interesting, classroom-friendly science experiments. Share a link to experiments on your class web page for families to complete at home. Consider taking photos of the different stages of an experiment your students are doing in class. For all age students, use Adobe Express for Education, reviewed here, to display them on your webpage for students and families to view at any time. Enhance learning by having older students write blogs, documenting their understanding using a tool like Telegra.ph, reviewed here. With Telegra.ph you just click on an icon to upload images from your computer, add a YouTube or Vimeo, or X (formerly Twitter) links. This blog creator requires no registration.

The American Physical Society (APS) Learning Resources collection provides educators with a wide range of free physics and STEM teaching materials designed to support science instruction from elementary school through college. The site features lesson plans, classroom activities, experiments, videos, articles, career resources, and professional learning opportunities that help students explore topics such as motion, energy, space science, engineering, and modern physics. Resources are searchable by grade level and subject area, making it easy for teachers to find materials that align with their curriculum. Whether introducing fundamental science concepts or extending student learning through hands-on investigations, APS offers high-quality, research-based resources that promote scientific inquiry and critical thinking.

tag(s): energy (139), motion (56), space (248), STEM (371)

In the Classroom

After exploring an APS lesson on forces or motion, have students design and build a simple device, such as a paper roller coaster, a balloon-powered car, or a marble run. Students can test variables, collect data, and explain the physics behind their results. Have students watch an APS video or read an article about a current scientific discovery. Students can summarize the findings, identify the scientific questions being investigated, and discuss how evidence supports the conclusions. Students can work in teams to create a model exhibit that teaches visitors about a physics concept such as energy, magnetism, light, or motion. Exhibits may include demonstrations, diagrams, hands-on components, and informational displays to teach others about the topic.

Sort by "audience" to narrow the listings by level: 3-5, 6-8, or 9-12. Version 3.0, released in 2010, provides better searching by activity type and curriculum term. Click at the bottom of the screen for an "interactivate Guide" to explain the various ways you can search, or simply click on Learner Activities to browse and see the breadth of offerings in areas such as Number and Operations, Geometry, Algebra, Probability, Statistics, Modeling, Discrete, and more.

tag(s): numbers (120), operations (71)

In the Classroom

Mark this one in your teacher favorites, then return to select activities in support of math or science units. Many curriculum topics have multiple offerings, so let students choose from among three to five activities for homework, in-class practice, or student- demonstrated skills on an interactive whiteboard or projector. Rotate different student groups to run the demonstrations and explanations of the interactives or have them write explanations of them on a class wiki for others to use for review and practice.

The TeachEngineering page for "Forecasting the Weather" offers a hands-on activity that guides students in understanding how meteorologists predict the weather. Through this activity, students learn to observe atmospheric conditions, record data, and use simple forecasting techniques to make weather predictions. Designed for elementary to middle school students, the activity encourages critical thinking and problem-solving by simulating real-world weather forecasting methods. This resource is ideal for science teachers looking to reinforce concepts in meteorology with interactive, practical learning that connects to students' everyday experiences with weather. The videos are hosted on YouTube. If your district blocks YouTube, then they may not be viewable.
This site includes advertising.

tag(s): weather (175)

In the Classroom

Have students keep a daily weather journal for a week, recording details like temperature, cloud cover, wind speed, and precipitation. They can create a weather journal using a free resource such as Book Creator reviewed here. Students can role-play as meteorologists in groups by preparing and presenting a weather forecast. Have students track the path of a storm (like a hurricane or tropical storm) over several days, noting changes in its trajectory, strength, and impacts.
