Lesson Title: The Wonderful World of
Science: Exploring Different Research
Categories
Grade Level: This lesson is adaptable for grades 5-8.
Subject: Science
Time Allotment: One hour (can be adjusted based on
age/engagement)
Learning Objectives:
Students will be able to differentiate between life science, physical
science, and applied science.
Students will be able to identify examples of each research
category.
Students will understand how the different categories of research
work together.
Materials:
Whiteboard or Projector
Markers/Pens
Chart paper (3 pieces)
Markers for chart paper
Pictures/descriptions of various scientific phenomena (plants,
animals, planets, electricity, medicine, bridges, etc.)
Scissors (optional)
Procedure:
Introduction (10 minutes):
1. Begin by asking students what science is.
2. Guide the discussion to understand science as a way to learn about
the world around us through observation, experimentation, and
analysis.
3. Introduce the concept of scientific research as how scientists ask
questions and seek answers about the natural world.
Activity: Sorting Science (20 minutes):
1. Divide the class into small groups.
2. Display pictures or descriptions of various scientific phenomena (at
least 10) around the classroom. These can include living things
(plants, animals), non-living things (planets, rocks), natural

Lesson Title: The Wonderful World of

Science: Exploring Different Research

Categories

Grade Level: This lesson is adaptable for grades 5-8. Subject: Science Time Allotment: One hour (can be adjusted based on age/engagement) Learning Objectives:  Students will be able to differentiate between life science, physical science, and applied science.  Students will be able to identify examples of each research category.  Students will understand how the different categories of research work together. Materials:  Whiteboard or Projector  Markers/Pens  Chart paper (3 pieces)  Markers for chart paper  Pictures/descriptions of various scientific phenomena (plants, animals, planets, electricity, medicine, bridges, etc.)  Scissors (optional) Procedure: Introduction (10 minutes):

  1. Begin by asking students what science is.
  2. Guide the discussion to understand science as a way to learn about the world around us through observation, experimentation, and analysis.
  3. Introduce the concept of scientific research as how scientists ask questions and seek answers about the natural world. Activity: Sorting Science (20 minutes):
  4. Divide the class into small groups.
  5. Display pictures or descriptions of various scientific phenomena (at least 10) around the classroom. These can include living things (plants, animals), non-living things (planets, rocks), natural

processes (weather, erosion), and human inventions (medicine, computers).

  1. Provide each group with chart paper and markers.
  2. Instruct students to work together to sort the pictures/descriptions into three categories on their chart paper. These categories will be written on the board or displayed on another chart: Life Science, Physical Science, and Applied Science (you can introduce these terms now or have students brainstorm names for the categories).
  3. Give students time to discuss and sort the pictures/descriptions. (Optional: If using descriptions, students can cut them out and sort them) Class Discussion (20 minutes):
  4. Once students have finished sorting, bring the class back together for a discussion.
  5. Have each group present their categories and explain why they placed certain pictures/descriptions there.
  6. As a class, discuss the definitions of each category: o Life Science: The study of living things (plants, animals, humans) and their interactions with the environment. o Physical Science: The study of non-living matter and energy, and their interactions. (e.g., physics, chemistry, astronomy) o Applied Science: The use of scientific knowledge from life and physical sciences to solve problems and create new technologies. (e.g., medicine, engineering, agriculture)
  7. Facilitate a discussion about how these categories are related: o Applied science often relies on knowledge gained from life and physical science research. o Scientific discoveries can sometimes cross over categories, and research can be interdisciplinary. Conclusion (10 minutes):
  8. Briefly review the three main categories of scientific research.
  9. Ask students to think of a scientific question they are curious about. Can they identify which category of science it would fall under?
  10. Challenge students to find a news article or short video about a recent scientific discovery and share it with the class, identifying the category of research it represents. Differentiation:  For younger students, provide more scaffolding during the sorting activity. You can pre-label some categories or provide a list of examples for each category.
