Lunar Lollipop Lab: Discovering Moon Phases
The Lunar Lollipop Lab is a great introductory lab for teaching moon phases because it allows students to visually observe the changing phases of the moon as a result of the relative positions of the Sun, Earth and moon. Don't just teach it...let your students EXPERIENCE it. By the end of the lab, students should understand why/how we have moon phases and should be able to predict the next phase in a sequence.
Each student will hold a moon pop in their hand. The lamp in the center of the roo

Water Bottle Rocket Launch Bundle
Want your students to study and launch water bottle rockets but need guidance? Well, I am here to help. The PowerPoint in this bundle will take your students through key vocabulary such as drag, ballast, thrust and discuss how Newton’s Three Laws affect the launch of a rocket. Day 1, students will work through the PowerPoint individually and design a water bottle rocket. Students will then join with a partner who also has a plan and merge their ideas into one design plan that they will build.

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
