Creating a Conservation of Momentum Problem
In this lab projects students will make their own Conservation of Momentum Problem and prove it through math and draw it on a poster. This project helps them better understand how Momentum MUST be conserved throughout the problem as they research and create their own real life situation.My students love doing this one each and every year. It gives them the chance to look up their own information and draw conclusion from their own problem. This can work with any grade level. All you need to d

Testing the Scientific Method Lab Activity (Great for back to School)
A lab activity that enables students to identify and use all parts of the scientific method as they examine whether grapes will float in water and soda.
I did this with my 7th grade class, but the critical thinking skills for that group were not present and the activity did not go well. I would recommend it for no lower than 8th grade.
