Science Experiment: Seed Sprouting Germination science experiment that teaches students the Scientific Method in a simple and easy to follow format. Everything you need is included except the seeds, cups, and potting soil. There is nothing complicated in this experiment, even for the teacher that is new to science experiments!
Students will plant common vegetable seeds leaving out sun, soil, and water. They will observe the seeds to see which seeds grow. Kids are very surprised to find out that seeds will germinate even when kept inside a dark cabinet! Students will discover that water is an essential ingredient in seed germination. They will work through all steps of the Scientific Method.
All activity steps are outlined in the Teacher Directions. This activity is tried and true! All parts of the science experiment have record sheets and informational pages for the students to use.

Popcorn science experiment or project that teaches students the Scientific Method in a simple and easy to follow format. Everything you need is included except the popcorn and some materials always on hand in a school or kitchen. There is nothing complicated in this experiment, even for the teacher that is new to science experiments!
Students will work together to try to find out if storing popcorn in different temperatures, such as the freezer, will help more kernels to pop. They will store several brands of popcorn in different temperatures. Then, they will pop the popcorn in a microwave or air popper. Students will count the kernels that didn't pop. They will work through all steps of the Scientific Method. As the students work through each step, they will complete the activity pages and data collection sheets. At the end, the class can enjoy a fun popcorn treat!
All activity steps are outlined in the Teacher Directions. All parts of the science experiment have record sheets and informational pages for the students to use. This is also great for kids that need to create a science project.

Banana science experiment teaches students the Scientific Method in a simple and easy to follow format. Everything you need is included except the bananas and some materials always on hand in a school or kitchen. There is nothing complicated in this experiment, even for the teacher that is new to science experiments! This activity is also great for science projects!
Students will work together to try to keep a banana fresh for a longer period of time. They will choose a method of trying to preserve the banana, rather than just leaving it to go brown. They will work through all steps of the Scientific Method.
All activity steps are outlined in the Teacher Directions. All parts of the science experiment have record sheets and informational pages for the students to use.
Included in this product:
•Teacher Directions

See my Popcorn Science Experiment and Sprouting Seeds Science Experiments in my store!
As part of the ‘States of Matter’ science topic for Year 4.
Here is the powerpoint for the an experiment on which chocolate melts the fastest. Included are visuals, explanations and details of the experiment.
You will need:
cake tray to a cube of chocolate into.
1 small square of white chocolate, milk chocolate and dark chocolate.
kettle to boil water
tray
THE EXPERIMENT:
Place one square of chocolate in each cake section of the cake tray.
Place the cake tray inside a tray.
Boil the kettle and pour the water into the tray.
Watch the chocolate melt.
Which one turned into a liquid the quickest?
Place the tray outside and see that it hardens back into a different shape
To celebrate, British Science Week, I have put together 14 simple science experiments for little ones.

Worksheets and resources to deliver a bridge design activity. Students are set the challenge to design a bridge which crosses a 30 cm gap and supports a car. They must fully budget for materials. Each bridge can be tested in turn and points awarded to identify a winner. This can be delivered as a standalone activity, or linked with construction and engineering.
I don't want to slow the pace for Year 7 (or Year 5 .....or Year 6) by stopping to continually explain how to set-out the "write-up" of an experiment!
This resource has all of the common sections (prediction, apparatus, method, etc. etc.). Just the mere fact that a structure is provided will help the least able to write something!!! Would also work well as a homework frame.
Space at the end to add a glossary (spellings!), so once you've bought it once it will find uses for a number of topic areas.
This runs over 2 pages of A4, so either: photocopy onto A3, use as double sided A4 or [my favourite] print on A5 and stick it into the student's books (who need it) prior to the lesson - helping to keep the progress going in your outstanding lesson.
Display these 6 A4 science experiment posters for your students to follow as they carry out a science investigation. I display these posters in class and my students refer to them throughout the investigation to remind my students of the steps involved.

An activity aimed at either 7-10 year olds (simply do the activity described on the first two pages and ask students to describe their observations) or 11-14 year old students(ask students to complete the worksheet of questions on diffusion), this resource provides a really engaging way of of showing students the phenomenon of diffusion in a quick, simple, creative and edible way!
Students are tasked with creating a simple picture or image on a plate using vegetable oil and a drinking straw. Skittle sweets/candy are then added to each area of the image and water is added. The colours from the skittle sweets/candy will start to diffuse and spread across the plate, colouring the image in. The colours are prevented from running into each other by the lines of oil.
The activity provides a great way of discussing key questions such as why the colours are spreading, why are some colours spreading faster than others, what effect different temperature water has on the rate of spread of the colour and why oil stops the colours from spreading any further. Most importantly though, the investigation is a FUN science activity tailored to Christmas!
The resource includes: Instruction sheet with diagrams, question worksheet for 11-14 year olds and various templates designs for Christmas pictures
Key words: diffusion, colour, art, christmas, santa, holly, reindeer, fun, skittles, spread, investigation
Science Experiment: Hair Color
The "Hair Color" Laboratory provides a written laboratory detailing the question, materials list, and procedure for a student to investigate whether people believe hair color affects intelligence. In addition to the written lab, you are provided the step by step guide to the scientific method, a fill in the blank lab report (question, research, hypothesis, planning or procedure, record sheet, and conclusion), fact sheet, data sheet, and reflection sheet.
All science teachers are looking for resources for hands on, demonstrations, or possible science fair investigations. This STEM Center series solves that problem! Print and enjoy!
Worksheets for planning and conducting science experiments and investigations. There are two versions, one with scientific language, and one with more simple language. Each version has two sheets, the experiment planning sheet, and the experiment results and analysis sheet.
