Gravity Experiments

This simple engineering and design STEM challenge helps kids develop critical thinking skills while having fun!

Hello Everyone! Next week we will begin a science unit on force and motion. We will investigate how things move and what changes can occur. I put together a quick little unit to help support the things we already do. I wanted something to spark the kids curiosity and scientific thinking. I love the activities included in the AIMS science curriculum, but wanted to put a little fall twist on them. So...Here are a couple of pics from the unit. If you need a few things to go along with your…

Experiment with the slope of a plane in this marble run activity. Kids can have fun rolling marbles into small plastic cups. Explore science and math hands-on with an easy-to-make inclined plane.

Gravity Science Experiment for kids I thought I would introduce a gravity science experiment to Liam and have him experiment around the house with gravity and how it works. Totally hands-on! We started with reading a very large but short book that easily illustrated the concept of gravity. Balance and Motion by Lisa Trumbauer. This is one of our 25 Favorite classic science experiments to try. Once we read the book, we got to work on our gravity science experiment! He actually was first to…

Two students wanted to know what happens when you wring out a water-soaked washcloth in zero gravity. Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield was happy to oblige.

After reading the book The Loopy Coop Hens- Letting Go, we did an experiment with cupcake liner chickens. This activity made science for children.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

How can you paint with gravity? Explore the beauty of pure, flowing hues with this abstract method of coloring paper.

This episode of the Kids Block was designed to inspire early basic science skills for preschool children through music and rhythmic learning. www.12andunder.com

An easy science experiment to demonstrate gravity and weight and practice scientific method with preschoolers.

I couldn't find a good tutorial online, so I thought I'd share how I made my Plinko boards: SUPPLIES I USED Peg board dowels wood for...

This is a complete five/six week unit full of experiments and activities to teach about the basic concepts of force and motion - particularly push, pull, friction, and gravity. In this unit you will receive an introduction to teaching force and motion, material lists, procedures, and data recording...

Last week, I shared with you how we explored space with Dr. Seuss. My prekindergarten age students enjoyed talking about and making their own planets so we made our own simple version of planets in a bottle for the children to take home as a way to promote discussion on planets at home

My eldest daughter found a book I bought on Force and Motion for K-2nd graders, and she decided she wanted to do an experiment. We haven’t done one in a long while, so I decided it was time. …
