Show your class how combining two objects can create a new object in this hands-on science lesson. Students will learn why breaking apart an object doesn't change its mass.

Scientific Method Steps

Is your child baffled by the scientific method? Dr. McSquare is here to help! Learn the steps by helping the doctor organize his lab reports.

Newton's First Law

Why do we wear our seat belts in the car? Newton's first law of motion, or the law of inertia, explains that objects in motion stay in motion!

Did you know that sound is actually caused by movement? Vibrations of particles create the sound that we hear.

History of the Periodic Table

The periodic table of the elements is an important classification system of the most basic particles that make up our world!

Ooey Gooey Oobleck

In this teacher-approved lesson, students will make and play with oobleck (corn starch and water), then write about their experiments. Young scientists will have a blast seeing their oobleck mixtures seemingly come to life.

Sort Out the Scientific Method #1

Dr. McSquare needs help sorting out his lab reports. Can your child read each item, then label it with the correct scientific method step?

Chemistry of Fireworks

Don't let school year learning slip away this summer: use this chemistry worksheet to practice identifying elements.
