Tides Lab Using Water Balloons - Hands On Experience That Kids LOVE!
This lab is a really fun way to use discovery and investigation to teach students how gravity and inertia cause tides, along with the moon. The cost is low (a package of water balloons and yarn) and it is a great activity to get kids moving and outside. They work in small groups and go through a series of steps and procedures and record data. This was one of the most fun labs of the year for students and was instrumental is having kids understand why we have high tides on the side of the Earth c

Global and Local Convection PowerPoint! ClimateRegions/Winds/Currents/Land&Sea
This PowerPoint explains how convection affects weather patterns and climate.Students must know that because warm air near Earth’s surface rises and then cools as it goes up, a convection current is set up in the atmosphere. There are three atmospheric convection areas in the northern hemisphere and three in the southern hemisphere: arctic region, temperate region and tropical region. Students will learn the wind belts located in that region: polar winds, trade winds and westerlies. Colorful gr

Power Point Science Lesson on Soils CSI Crime Scene Investigation
In this power point lesson, students discover the characteristics of three different types of soils in an engaging "crime scene" format. Through observation of clues at the crime scene and hands-on observations of soils (looking at smell, color, texture, and particle/grain size), the children deduce who was responsible for the crime. The crime scene is easy to stage, and the power point contains detailed teacher directions in the notes sections for teaching the lesson.
