Students use stream tables to observe how rivers develop. They will explore how landslides change river courses, meanders, sediment deposition, river paths, and delta formation.
Students model absolute dating and half-life with candy. Graph Carbon-14 decay, solve problems, and apply probability to date rocks and fossils.
Students will actively observe Earth's plate tectonics with a simple chocolate demonstration. They'll witness crust break apart, magma rise, and understand earthquakes and igneous rock formation.
Students will identify various fossil types using provided links, researching their formation, ancient environments, and geologic time. They will also explore the significance of paleontological study.
Students develop an Earth Science concept map in Google Drawing, connecting terms from geology, astronomy, and meteorology. They'll organize core concepts and use a collaborative tool. Rubric included.
Students design and conduct an experiment to determine the densities of various rocks and minerals. They will apply scientific inquiry to calculate mass, volume, and density.
Students observe crystal formation and explore how impurities change mineral color in this Earth Science lab. Perfect for grades 3-10, it includes student work and sample results.
Engage students in hands-on science as they discover soil type and pH levels. They will apply vocabulary and use a soil pyramid to classify textures.
Students will research 12 minerals, identifying their elemental composition using the Periodic Table, and exploring their industrial uses.
Guide students to observe and explain how geysers work. They will understand the roles of heat, pressure, and water in creating an eruption, connecting models to real phenomena.
Students research valuable industrial ores, identify top global producers, and map their locations. They will also learn diverse industrial uses, reinforcing geography skills.
Students explore glacial formation, growth, and shrinkage. They act as scientists in an interactive lab, discovering how glaciers move and impact Earth's landscapes over time.
