Circuit Designers

Resource ID: txlsr12007
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.

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.
