Science Fun "Make-ables"

Fun Science Gallery - Science Experiments. STEM Behind Hollywood by Texas Instruments. Scientists and experts who consult on Hollywood films and TV worked alongside leading math and science educators to create free classroom activities for TI-Nspire CX™ handhelds, TI-Nspire™ Teacher and Student Software, and TI-Nspire™ Apps for iPad. These activities center around the math and science behind Hollywood themes like zombies, superheroes, space and forensics, and they give students the chance to solve problems just like real-life scientists using the concepts behind their favorite movies and TV shows. TI’s STEM education advocate Her role as one of TV’s most endearing nerds — Amy Farrah Fowler on The Big Bang Theory — is hardly a stretch for TI’s brand ambassador, the Emmy-nominated actress Mayim Bialik. “STEM Behind Hollywood introduces students to what it looks and feels like to be a scientist. We're making math and science from movies and TV come to life by giving the concepts a visual representation with TI-Nspire™ technology.”

Splash Photography Projects. Here's our collection of creative drop and splash photographs. People with a wide variety of photographic skills are represented here, from beginners to experienced photographers. Click on the links to view their photos and learn more about their experiments. A Systematic Study of Splashes A photographic study of water splashes above and below the water surface by three students--Scott Butson, Corey Hadley, and Stuart Pratt at the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics.

Information on their setup and experiment can be found on the website they created. Water Splash Sequences Inspired by the work of Butson, Hadley, and Pratt, Dahl Clark took a sequence of photos showing the various stages of water drop splashes. Multi-flash Milk Splashes Drops and splashes of milk were illuminated with a timed sequence of four flash units, each filtered with a different color. Water Splashes A sequence of frames showing the evolution of a splash after a water drop falls into a container of water. Cartoons. High School Chemistry Resources on the Web. Free labs!

Physics teacher. Newton's laws are difficult both for teachers and students at all levels. 1–3 This is still the case despite a long history of critique of the laws as presented in the classroom. For example, more than 50 years ago Eisenbud 4 and Weinstock 5 proposed reformulations of the laws that put them on a sounder, more logically consistent base than is presented in many textbooks without resorting to “intuitional or anthropomorphic contrivances.” 5 In 1990, Arnold Arons 6 wrote that “the Law of Inertia and the concept of force have, historically, been two of the most formidable stumbling blocks for students.” One might imagine, therefore, that by 2012 remedial strategies would have resolved these difficulties, but there is little evidence that the problem has been satisfactorily addressed.

Weird Science (Bill Beaty's Homepages) Free Science Experiments - Experiment of the Week Archives. Below we have a list of fun and educational science experiments that can be conducted in the classroom or at home. Most will use simple to find household items. Always be sure to read through experiments completely prior to trying them. Many of these experiments should have adult supervision. - Try to understand how inertia effects a candle flame. - In this experiment, you will see the effects Bernoulli's Principle on resisting gravity. - An explaination of why we get Brain Freeze when we eat cold things like ice cream. - In this experiment, we use red cabbage juice as a Acid/Base indicator. - This fun activity will explore the pull of gravity, as you race it to catch falling coins. - An experiment that shows how heat and cold effect air molecules and resulting air pressure. - Explore how vibration creates sound using a simple comb and wax paper. - What causes the sound when people crack their knuckles?

- Ever place a rug on carpet, only to have it move out-of-place over time? Experiment of the Week. Sci . Bungee Jump. Dare-deviled eggs! Design an eggy bungee jump and save the egg. Did it work or would you like homefries to go with those scrambled eggs? Now it's time to experiment. Think of a question you want answered. Like, what would happen if you used a larger or smaller egg? Would you need to change the nylons in some way? Be sure to predict what you think is going to happen. Wrote: We put a 4' ladder by a stack of chairs and suspended a pair of nylons between them. Wrote: It took some working, but I did it! Wrote: I did everything in the rules I had and it came out to be successful!!! Wrote: i did it. it was so cool except fo the part tha was not so cool. it ixploeded all over me. wrote: Well I guess I did something wrong because nothing happened. wrote: it ixsplodide all over my friend and she was green wrote: i jumed high and my mom did not care that was so cool wrote: it was fantastic and it exploded wrote: I did it but the egg cracked. wrote: wrote: I tried it and it cracked!!!
