Simple Machines, Fixed/Movable Pulleys, Work, Mechanical Advantage (Word & PDF)
This a a basic activity to demonstrate the mechanical advantage of pulleys. Students can see that a fixed pulley helps only by allowing you to pull down with gravity in order to lift an object up. Movable pulleys double the amount of line pulled and decrease the effort required to lift an object. Both pulleys add friction, thereby increasing the overall amount of work done.
See the list of supplies. You may be able to make substitutions for some objects, but you will need several pulleys, strin

Matter and Energy Lab Sheets - Alberta Science 6
Matter & Energy: The particle model of matter states that heating matter causes particles to move faster. As particles move faster, the attractive forces between them weaken and the space between them increases. The particle model of matter states that cooling matter causes particles to move slower. As particles slow down, the attractive forces between them increase and the space between them decreases. A phase change is a change from one state of matter to another. During a phase change, the

In this "mini e lab" students get to take notes on the different magnifications of the lenses and then get to explore how to use the microscope. All you need is a prepared slide with newspaper cut out of the letter "e". I used this as an introductory lesson for students to explore the microscope. They will learn that if you place a slide in, it will look upside down through the microscope. They will see how the magnification of an object (in this case the letter e) increases as you change object
