In this Dinosaur Train clip, Mr. Conductor explains what fossils are and how they are created, and Dr. Scott the Paleontologist disuccses how paleontologists find, care for, and conduct research with the fossils they uncover. [2:06]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Shiny and Don build a sand castle for Henry and Stella. When water destroys it, they learn that change is a natural part of life. [3:20]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Dr. Scott the Paleontologist discusses coprolites--fossilized dinosaur excrement. He explains that, from this material, scientists can learn more about dinosaurs' diets. [1:01]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Dr. Scott the paleontologist explains that dinosaurs laid their eggs in circular nests like birds, and that they often nested in colonies for protection from predators. [1:00]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Dr. Scott the Paleontologist discusses flowering plants and their appearance in the Cretaceous Period, near the end of the age of dinosaurs. [1:00]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Mr. Conductor explains to the Pteranodon kids that all creatures have their own part to play in an ecosystem. This resource teaches students that all organisms in an ecosystem are connected, and the difference between herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. [1:33]

In this Dinoasaur Train clip, Tiny is sad that her favorite flower has died. This resource teaches students that everything in nature changes because of the plant life cycle. [2:38]

In this Dinosaur Train clip Gilbert teaches the kids about the giant prehistoric sea turtle called Archelon. Gilbert reminds the kids that different species behave differently and have unique life cycles. Take this video as an opportunity to learn the differing ways in which animals reproduce. [2:10]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Dr. Scott the Paleontologist discusses the diverse lifeforms which may be found in tidepools--bodies of water left behind by the ocean at low tide. [1:00]

In this Dinosaur Train clip, Dr. Scott the paleontologist explains the water cycle, and why living creatures need water to live. This clip helps students understand the negative effects a drought has on plants and animals, and how plants and animals adapt to stay alive during periods of drought. [1:26]

The Dinosauria provides the latest information about dinosaurs, including debunking myths, early dinosaur discoveries, characteristics of specific dinosaurs, life history, and discovery of dinosaur fossils.

Learn how to predict the molecular dipole moment based on the molecular geometry. [9:21]

Khan Academy learning modules include a Community space where users can ask questions and seek help from community members. Educators should consult with their Technology administrators to determine the use of Khan Academy learning modules in their classroom. Please review materials from external sites before sharing with students.

In this activity, students use voltage and current probes to investigate Ohm's Law. The students collect data and use their graphing calculators to perform data analysis and "discover" Ohm's Law.

The phenomenon of light dispersion is explained with a formula and a practice form for calculating Abbe's number.

A description of dissociative shock including the two main causes of this kind of shock: met hemoglobin and carbon monoxide poisoning. Symptoms and treatment for dissociative shock are examined.

In Visceral Science, users have the ability to seamlessly move throughout the galaxy, jumping from star to star. In this series of lessons, we explore just how large those distances truly are, and how astronomers measure distances throughout the Universe.
To measure distance to stars in our galaxy, astronomers use a technique called parallax. In this lesson, students will explore parallax by building a simple model of how astronomers use the technique.

Estimated time required: 1-2 class periods.

Technology required for this lesson: .

In Visceral Science, users have the ability to seamlessly move throughout the galaxy, jumping from star to star. In this series of lessons, we explore just how large those distances truly are, and how astronomers measure distances throughout the Universe.
In this lesson, we will explore Standard Candles, one of the ways in which astronomers measure distances in space. Using flashlights, students will be able to observe how the same light is dimmer the further it is from an observer.

Estimated time required: 1-2 class periods.

In astronomy, the cosmic distance ladder represents all of the methods astronomers use to measure distance. Each rung of the ”ladder” measures slightly further, but rely on the methods before it. In this lesson, students will build a distance ladder of their own using objects found in the classroom and school.

Estimated time required: 1-2 class periods.

Technology required for this lesson: Augmented Reality, Tablet or Smartphone.

Learn about three different marine ecosystems: coral reefs, the continental shelf, and the deep sea. Interactive game included, which will help players chart the interrelationships among organisms that live in each ecosystem.
