Science Lab Safety Fact and Opinion Sort
This is an excellent beginning or review activity. It is especially good for special education students, but also works well for regular education students. It combines the lower level ELA standard of understanding fact vs opinion (which is, itself, a good review before going into observation vs inference) with lab safety rules and scientific method terminology.
Cut and laminate to use repeatedly as small group task carts or whole class sorts or have students individually cut and paste onto co

NO PREP Need a Lab Quick! -- Porosity of Soil (needs only dirt, water, cups)
This is a simple lab/worksheet that measures porosity of soil. The advantage? The materials are free and easy to obtain. All you need is dirt, some measureable containers (like a beakers or measuring cups), and water.
The initial discussion question is about the advantage that soil has over human made pavement when it comes to flooding or runoff. This lab would be a good kickstart to a lesson about flooding, permeable pavers, and other human solutions to flooding.

Whale Lengths
During a study of whales, the teacher discusses the whales' size. The teacher then takes the students outside with a long piece of rope. They measure the rope and use these signs to see how long different types of whales are. This gives the kids a much better understanding of the size of whales.

Science Lab Name Tags
This is a wonderful way to team students up when working in the science lab or performing experiments in or out of the classroom. They know who is in charge of each part of an experiment.
Each team is color coded and is broken into 5 roles: captain, data collector, supplies leaders, and 2 experiment performers. You can print out or eliminate roles according to your needs. Differentiated learning is the key to success, these tags allow you differentiate your students during labs and can be moved

Hurricane Experiment: Storm Surge
This is a fun experiment to show the storm surge during a hurricane. The students put sugar cubes in a small pan and build it up to show land; water; and food coloring. They then use a hair dryer to represent the wind. They watch how the land is effected by it. They then answer the questions about the experiment. There are 2 levels provided here. One level requires more multiple choice responses, while the other has more short answer responses. Easy way to modify for your students with sp

How Low Can It Go? An Experiment about Density
This science experiment on density is geared toward 4th-6th grade and is modified for special education students. The students pour three liquids (honey, water, and oil) into a clear jar and record where they settle. Then, they drop three items (penny, grape, cork) into the liquid and record where they stop. There is also some cutting, pasting, and coloring involved. It is a fun, hands-on, user-friendly assignment. My students always love this one. I hope yours do, too! Happy teaching! ~B
