This activity is an guided inquiry based lesson where students measure and graph data on a two-coordinate graph the growth of a toy animal submerged in water over a period of time.
This activity is a field investigation where students measure, record and describe …
This activity is a field investigation where students measure, record and describe weather conditions using common tools (rain gauge, thermometer, and barometer). They will compare their observations to Weather.com (online) and the local newspapers to compare their findings, and record these observations.
These exercises target student misconceptions about how to properly measure voltage and …
These exercises target student misconceptions about how to properly measure voltage and current in simple DC circuits by letting them investigate different meter arrangements without fear of damaging equipment. These activities also are designed to lead to other investigations about simple DC circuits.

This group learning activity involves students in an engaging review of concepts of microbiology. The review is set up as a power point presentation in the style of the "Jeopardy" gameshow where students groups compete against each other to answer review questions.
This stream field investigation will allow students to look at stream erosional …
This stream field investigation will allow students to look at stream erosional patterns, take measurements to determine discharge, and conduct a chemical and turbidity analysis of Garvin Brook in Stockton, MN. Based on this investigation students will create a presentation that includes a new testable question that may be carried out the following year along with a stream ecology study.
This activity is a lab investigation in which students make mass/volume measurements …
This activity is a lab investigation in which students make mass/volume measurements of several samples of the same mineral to determine the mineral's density. Students graph their data and make the connection between their qualitative understanding of what density is and the mathematical/graphical representation of density.

Again- this is activity that will set the stage for enriching the understanding of the nature of molecular motion and the affect of temperature on its rate as the students allow crystals to diffuse toward each other in a petri dish and form a precipitate.
This activity is a mini-lab where students determine relationships between gas laws …
This activity is a mini-lab where students determine relationships between gas laws and temperature, pressure, and volume; particularly Charles and Boyle's Law. The concept of mini-labs originated from Dr. Dan Branan and Dr. Matt Morgan. See mini-labs.org for more details.
