The Water Cycle
In this lab, students use a weather sensor to measure the conditions in a water cycle model.
Conductor or Not
In this lab, students use a voltage sensor to test the conductivity of different materials.
Electric Circuits
In this lab, students use a voltage sensor to measure the voltage across elements in series and in parallel in an electric circuit.
What is an Electromagnet?
In this lab, students use a voltage sensor to determine the strength of an electromagnet with varying numbers of coils and magnitudes of voltage.
Determining Sound Levels
In this lab, students use a sound level sensor to measure the sound levels from different objects. Students will determine the sound sources, and determine...
Keeping Warm
In this lab, students will use a temperature sensor to understand which materials conduct heat and which don’t, and why they do or don’t.
Heating Land and Water
In this lab, students will use a temperature sensor to identify the property that allows some materials to heat up faster than others. Students will draw...
Chemical Reactions
In this lab, students will use a temperature sensor to measure the change in temperature as two substances chemically react.
Weather Station
In this lab, students use a weather sensor to measure temperature, dew point, humidity and atmospheric pressure over a period of time. Then, they'll identify...
Dew and Frost
In this lab, students use a fast-response temperature sensor and a model to simulate the weather conditions responsible for the formation of dew and frost.
