Air Pressure Vacuum Lab — Expanding Gases & Boyle's Law Demo
This lab provides a vivid, visual demonstration of Boyles’s Law, showing how the volume of a gas increases as the surrounding pressure decreases. Activity DescriptionThe Air Pressure Lab uses a vacuum chamber to simulate high-altitude or low-pressure environments. When students use the hand pump, they are removing air molecules from the "bell jar," which decreases the external air pressure. Because the air molecules trapped inside the balloon, bubble wrap, or film canister are still pushing o

Moving Cities
This activity helps student determine the rate at which continental drift is causing cities to move toward or away from each other. Using current and past longitude and latitude data, students calculate the rate of increase or decrease in distance between large global cities. This data can then be used to predict the future movement of the cities based on historic trends.

Glacial Simulation Lab (velocity slope)
Five page lab on glaciers. Students use flubber to simulate the flow of a glacier down a slope. Students calculate the speed of the flow. Students first preform a control and then get to test a variable such as changing slope, increasing friction decreasing friction, or more. Students develop a hypothesis and test it. Comes with short answer questions. Great for an Earth Science teacher.

Graphing Analysis
With this product, students use data to plot 3 separate graphs. A graph of mass vs. volume for a mineral sample reveals a direct relationship between the variables, i.e. both variables increase. A graph of Temperature of a cup of coffee vs. time shows an indirect relationship, i.e., one variable increases while the other variable decreases. A third graph shows a cyclic relationship, number of sunspots vs. time. The worksheet is a very good exercise in plotting data points and determining the re

Tracking Hurricane Katrina
This is a laboratory where student map and plot the latitude, longitude, and strength of Hurricane Katrina over time. The review questions involve the students inspecting global wind patterns to realize they affected the path of Katrina. The students also construct a cross-section plotting millibar increase and decrease through the eye of Katrina. Several questions examine the relationships between air pressure, windspeed, and isobar spacing. In all, a good exercise in plotting, creating a cross
