A comprehensive review game covering the Ohio 5th Grade Science Standards, including Earth and Space Science, Physical Science, and Life Science. Students compete in teams to answer curriculum-aligned questions in a high-energy classroom setting.

A hands-on lesson where students analyze real-world citizen science data to track bird migration through New England, integrating math, geography, and biology.

A lesson exploring the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. Students will learn the primary processes and how they connect in a never-ending cycle.

A lesson exploring the specialized roles of red and white blood cells, their production in bone marrow, and their vital functions in oxygen transport and immune defense. Includes differentiated reading materials for various reading levels.

Students step into the shoes of meteorologists, using scripts and props to report on a wide variety of weather phenomena across a fictional map.

A hands-on chemistry session where students experiment with non-Newtonian fluids and acid-base reactions to create fizzing eruptions and gooey textures.

Students become engineers by designing a marble maze that incorporates simple machines like inclined planes and levers using cardboard and recyclables.

An introduction to aerodynamics and space travel where students design, build, and test various flight models using simple household items.

Students explore nature by building mini-ecosystems and learning about water purification using natural and recycled materials.

An in-depth study of the Monarch butterfly's life cycle, focusing on the four stages of complete metamorphosis and the critical ecological role of milkweed.

Weeks 1 focus on the scale of the solar system, the Sun, and the terrestrial planets, emphasizing executive functioning through organizational 'Mission Logs' and perspective-taking via planetary viewpoints.

A high-intensity Grade 5 Science review session specifically designed for the Arkansas ATLAS assessment, covering matter, ecosystems, Earth systems, and space.

A lesson exploring how energy flows through an ecosystem using food webs. Students learn key vocabulary and identify roles of different organisms within their environment.

A lesson exploring the mountain ecosystem of giant pandas, focusing on their specialized diet and the importance of conservation.

A comprehensive lesson exploring the scientific causes, effects, and prevention of brain freeze (ice cream headaches). Students read an informational text, analyze evidence, and understand the biological protection mechanisms of the brain.

Students become meteorologists to investigate air pressure, temperature, and moisture. They simulate fronts and interpret weather maps to understand the Earth's atmospheric systems.

A comprehensive exploration of photosynthesis and plant life cycles designed for Grade 4/5 students. Students will learn how plants harness solar energy to create food and follow the developmental stages of a plant from seed to maturity.

A hands-on laboratory investigation where students explore how varying wire coils, voltage, and core materials affect the strength of an electromagnet.

A comprehensive lesson to inspire and equip students to organize their own neighborhood or park cleanup for Earth Day. Includes background on Earth Day, the impact of waste, and a practical planning framework for student-led action.

A comprehensive lesson exploring ecosystems as complex systems, focusing on food webs and subsystems across four major biomes: North American Forests, Oceans/Coral Reefs, Deserts, and Tropical Rainforests.

A comprehensive lesson on ecosystems as systems, exploring the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers as subsystems within a food chain. Students will identify how energy flows through these interconnected parts.
