Showing Results for and unit

Invite your kindergartener to explore the bright new world of measurement by starting out with nonstandard (and tasty!) units, such as gummy bears or worms.

Here's a thought-provoking activity to make new vocabulary words "stick" in the mind of your young learner.

Work on measurement by sliding cards along a table with your second grader in this fun game. Use centimeters or inches, add up your totals, and see who's won!

This fun activity encourages your child to develop their skills in not only taking measurements, but also in working with the measurements themselves.

Encourage your child to compare and contrast a wide variety of autumn-themed items by weighing various objects and recording their findings.

Read on this high school science fair project idea to get basic information on the process of heat transfer and the conditions under which the transfer occurs.

Is horse manure a possible energy source in a crisis? Use calorimetry to find out how much energy horse manure can produce in this science fair project.

Check out this fun science fair project idea for middle school students to learn about the effects of temperature on the density of a gas such as air.

Look for a correlation between temperature and the intensity of cricket chirping. Measure ambient temperature and sound intensity in decibels.

Construct calorimeter and determine the caloric value of a sample of foods by change in temperature for each of the foods.

What is the coldest temperature possible? In this cool experiment, you'll calculate absolute zero by extrapolating data on the temperature and volume of gas.

The objective of this science experiment is to evaluate the affects of high and low heat capacity on a material's heat retention ability.

The goal of this science fair project is to evaluate the effect of heat on sound wave frequency.

This project examines the affect of temperature on viscosity and surface tension of different liquids.
