    • Susan Shonle
       
      Extensions: Connect Earth Science with Math and Art. Also includes Natural Sciences. Adaptations: Gifted students can record daily weather observations in a notebook and create a graph or tally chart of the different types of weather that they examined. ESL & Special Ed students can draw daily weather patterns in notebook or create pictograph charts of weather with tally marks to indicate frequency. 
  •  
    Construct a Weather Spinner: - Earth Science Intro to Natural Sciences - your child will learn to see details and patterns in atmospheric conditions.  A simple weather spinner provides an accessible tool for your child to improve her observation and analysis ability, important scientific skills she will use for the rest of her life. Supplies: White tag board or poster board, pencil, crayons, markers, or colored pencils, and a metal brad.

Lincoln's Dive - A Newton's Law Experiment - sciencebob.com - 1 views

    • Susan Shonle
       
      Extensions: Science connects with a historical figure: Isaac Newton.  Teacher can give background on him prior to experiment or allow students time to research via book or internet this important historical figure. Adaptations Gifted students can choose one of Newton's laws and give a presentation on it after researching the topic.  ESL & Special Ed students can illustrate one of Newton's Laws on poster board or foam core.
  •  
    The Lincoln High Dive: 5th Grade Science Experiment Newton's first law states that an object at rest will remain at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.  This experiment also illustrates gravity. Supplies: A Lincoln penny (or other small coin), a piece of card stoic or stiff paper, a film canister, baby food jar, or other similar size container with a mouth slightly larger than a penny, a pencil or pen, and scissors.

Make a Tornado in a Bottle - Fun Science Experiments for Kids - 1 views

    • Liz Dilts
       
      2.2.6 Learn about, report on and practice severe weather safety procedures. Differentiation: Allow ELL students to present orally, in written expression, or artistically (poster, picture...) on a severe weather phenomena that is common in the area where they are from and the safety procedures for this weather.  This will allow students to present on a topic that is familiar and also educate other students on their background.
  •  
    Help students to understand what goes on in a tornado by creating one of your own!  This is a common severe weather phenomena that happens in Indiana and should be combined with safety procedures on the topic.

      I have changed this to a Kindergarten activity
    • Jessica Buell
       
      Adaptions: you can adapt this lesson by having ELL and special need students find the flowers and sketch them for their group, then they can assist the group in identifying the habitat and descriptions. (This will help ELL students enhance their vocabulary) Extensions: You can extend this activiy by having students create a venn diagram and identify similarities and differences. Older grades can also extend the activity by researching their plants/flowers more (locations it is found, type of flower, how effecte environment...etc) and creating a poster board that they will present in the class.

Mini-Landslide - Activity - www.TeachEngineering.org - 1 views

  • Students explore how different materials (sand, gravel, lava rock) with different water contents on different slopes result in landslides of different severity. They measure the severity by how far the landslide debris extends into model houses placed in the flood plain.
    • Amanda McCarthy
       
      This activity can be tied to social studies by having students create an essay, PowerPoint, or poster on how landslides have and do affect the world's population. This can be done in groups of students (with all ability levels).
  •  
    This activity allows students to see the effects of a landslide on a small scale in the classroom. This is a neat experiment that looks easy to assemble and explain.

      While this activity does not cover a specific standard it does meet the requirement of teaching the design process.  Make sure that students must design, test, and revise their design to make the activity authentic.  A race would be a great final activity.  Assessment could come from an oral presentation on what they did and why or a visual presentation, such as a poster.

      SC.2.3.7 2000Investigate and observe that the way to change how something is moving is to give it a push or a pull.
  •  
    By focusing on the design aspect of this activity a budding scientist can learn a lot about solving a problem through the scientific design process.
  •  
    Great for deciephering where energy comes from. The design process gives the student a full understanding of how the vehicle works and why it moves.
