Conductivity Lab, Conductors, Insulators, Resistors, Circuits (Word and PDF )

Created by

At the beginning of every unit on electricity, it helps to discuss conductivity. This is a great lab for letting students investigate the differences between conductors and insulators. If you are able to extract a thick pencil lead, students can even observe a resistor (the graphite of the lead conducts electricity, with increasing resistance as the distance between the test leads increases). I have included both PDF and Word files. I have made a suggested list of items to try, but you may modi

You will download two scientific method rubric assessments (teacher and student self assessment) to use with your 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students. It works well to test and review the steps during a lab or experiment activity. The first one may be used by the teacher to assess the students' skills in identifying concepts, such as, the hypothesis, following the procedures, collecting data, using materials, and accuracy of results. The assessment is on a four point scale. The second assessment

Inspiring Teaching Design

“Six Kingdoms of Life Poster Project” is a guideline for designing a poster displaying the scientific classification of life - six kingdoms of living things: animals, plants, fungi, protists, eubacteria, and archaebacteria. It is a cross-curricular activity to engage in project-based learning when building a strong foundation for the concept of classifying live organisms. Provide your students an opportunity to convey researched information in a creative yet accessible and understandable way.
