Resource Page: Hands-On Labsheets
Click on the links below to see a brief description of each hands-on activity. From the description page, you can print out the labsheet or you can paste it into a new file and tailor it to your needs. All labsheets contain student background information and follow the steps of the scientific method. Students make predictions, follow the steps of a procedure, and record data as they investigate scientific principles. To print the labsheet, "select all" and paste it into a word processing document.
