Gravity Experiments

This set includes 2 pages for students to fill out while doing a simple gravity experiment. There are 9 word cards for a gravity Word Wall and a 6 page student book on Gravity. For the experiment, students need marbles, cubes, coins, sand, and pans or trays. This is a great mini-unit on gravity for young students. Thanks! SDH Creations

Science: Properties of Objects

Science: Properties of Objects

(0)
These are pages I made to help my class explore the properties of objects (properties such as: hard, soft, wooden, plastic, circle, square, heavy, light). The papers tell the students what to do and has room for them to draw and write what they did. For these activities, you will need 2 bags of objects. Bag A should be a random group of objects including some wooden objects, some plastic objects and some soft and hard objects. I used things such as cotton balls, wooden blocks, pattern blocks, counters, straws, etc. Bag B should include various items that have a circle shape and a square shape. If you choose to do the Weight activities, you will need to use balance scales and cubes. (3 pages) Thanks, SDH Creations
Beginning Shadow Unit

Beginning Shadow Unit

(0)
These pages are meant to help introduce the changing lengths of shadows to children. I have included 2 versions of a Shadow investigation- measuring the length of someone’s shadow several times during the day and over several days to see patterns in the length. One version follows the Scientific Method using the words: Question, Materials, Procedure, Data/Observations, Conclusion and Further Questions. The other is a simple one page investigation with room for observations and questions to answer. There are 12 pictures with shadows to sort into 2 Headings: Shadows Near Noon and Shadows in the Morning or Afternoon (based on the length of the shadow). There is a student worksheet with pictures to cut out and put in the correct column. These are the same pictures as in the Shadow Sort. There is a Shadow Web in which the children can write what they have learned about shadows. (10 pages in all) Thanks! SDH Creations
