Circuit Designers icon
Circuit Designers

Resource ID: TXLSR12.007
Grade Range: 5
Subject: Science

Students will work in small groups of two to three on a structured challenge around circuits which includes requirements such as including using a switch or a conductor. They will then use that knowledge to work on a collaborative challenge to solve a relevant problem related to elephant poaching. Students will create a containment system that will have an alarm system, a lighting system, and a way to pass through. Finally, they will review the other projects and discuss similarities and differences in the design.

Communication in Space icon
Communication in Space

Resource ID: TXLSR14.057
Grade Range: 7
Subject: Science

Students will work in cooperative groups to create an accurate arrangement of mirrors that work together to relay a laser beam from a Mars space station to Earth’s Mission Control, which will model utilizing satellites in space for communication, an accommodation necessary for manned space exploration.

Resource ID: TXLSR11.023B
Grade Range: 6
Subject: Science

Students use various surfaces and a weighted car to see how far the car will travel using balanced and unbalanced forces.

Earths Movements icon
Earth’s Movements

Resource ID: TXLSR5.012
Grade Range: 5
Subject: Science

Students will work in small collaborative groups to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth as it revolves around the Sun which creates a day and night cycle.

OnTrack logo
Types of Science Investigations

Resource ID: SM0L3b
Grade Range: 10 - 9
Subject: Science

Students will distinguish between descriptive, comparative, and experimental investigations.

OnTrack logo
Experimental Design

Resource ID: SM0L3d

Students will explore the Earth's rotation and its relation to the Sun and the Moon. Then, students will create a visual representation of this relationship and present it to the rest of the class.

Teacher doing Introduction

DNA Sequencing icon
DNA Sequencing

Resource ID: TXLS128
Grade Range: 9
Subject: Science

In this lesson, students will investigate how gene expression is a regulated process controlled by DNA and the interpretations of codons through translation.

Convergent Plate Boundaries icon
Convergent Plate Boundaries

Resource ID: TXLS135
Grade Range: 8
Subject: Science

Students will design and test models that will identify crustal features formed by convergent plate boundaries.

Full Speed Ahead icon
Full Speed Ahead

Resource ID: TXLS006
Grade Range: 8
Subject: Science

Students will use hover pucks to measure speed over a distance of six meters. Once speed has been calculated, students will determine velocity using the same data. Finally, students will be able to label all points of acceleration.

Building a Watershed icon
Building a Watershed

Resource ID: TXLS122
Grade Range: 7
Subject: Science

Students will model the effects of human activity on watersheds.

Save the Factory icon
Save the Factory!

Resource ID: TXLS071
Grade Range: 4
Subject: Science

Students will design an experiment to test the outcome of friction in force and motion. The students will create an inclined plane demonstrating their knowledge of mechanical energy and the effects of gravity on an object. Students will use previous knowledge of friction to complete their task of stopping their object. Critical thinking skills will be the focus of the lesson as students will have to utilize their scientific problem-solving skills to make decisions regarding their experiment.
