Science Laboratory (by date, latest first)

Static electricity, also called electrostatics, happens when electric charge builds up on the surface of an object. This charge can be positive or negative. It forms when atoms in a material gain or lose electrons.

When two objects rub against each other, electrons move from one to the other. One object ends up with extra electrons and a negative charge. The other loses electrons and gets a positive charge.

You often feel static electricity when you walk across a carpet and touch a metal object. That tiny shock you feel is static electricity at work!

This helpful e-book includes ten easy experiments that show how static electricity works. You can do all of them safely at home or in the classroom. They only need simple, everyday items.

Each experiment has clear, step-by-step instructions. There is also a short explanation after each one, so young students can easily understand what’s happening.

Have fun exploring the amazing world of static electricity!

Are you looking for a hands-on, inquiry-based lab for your middle school students that demonstrates natural selection? This lab will do just that as it guides students to act as birds in a forest as they prey on skittles to see how the adaptation of camouflage helps a species survive. They will then collect data to see how the organisms with the fittest traits survive. The lab can be completed in one day and the graph and reflection questions will most likely take a second day to complete.

The simulation activity includes warm up questions, step by step instructions, a data table, line graph, and reflection questions. Students also use math skills to calculate population percentages and display them on a line graph.

Materials needed: skittles & green paper or green napkins (optional: polka dot napkins)

An answer key is included.

Your students will:

• Engage in visual and hands-on learning
• Apply knowledge
• Practice concepts 
• Collect data
• Analyze data
• Draw conclusions
• Use math skills
• Explore real world application of science knowledge

Are you looking for a hands-on, inquiry-based lab for your middle school students that covers watersheds and human impact on water supply? Then check this out! In this lab, students will crumple a piece of paper, use markers to draw various landmarks and landforms on the paper, and then spray water over the paper to simulate rain flowing through a watershed. Students will be able to observe how water travels from areas of higher elevation to lower elevation due to gravity. Additionally, students will learn how humans impact the environment by leaving pollution on Earth's surface, which gets transported into the water supply. This lab also includes detailed step by step instructions and post-lab questions.

An answer key is included.

Materials needed: markers, plain paper, spray bottles, and water.

Your students will:

• Apply knowledge
• Practice concepts 
• Use observation skills
• Demonstrate understanding
• Analyze data
• Apply key terms and definitions
