Students research on renewable and nonrenewable resources. In this chemistry lesson, students design and build solar panels. They evaluate their device and write a lab report.

Students test the pH of soil samples they collected from the field trip. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate acids and bases. They write a lab report about the experiment.

Chemistry aces use an electrochemical cell to anodize a strip of aluminum. They apply an organic dye to it. In a practical application, they design a piece of jewelry out of the anodized metal and describe the process. Thorough notes...

This is actually a 10-day mini unit on thermal energy for your high school chemists. Every avenue is taken to get learners absorbed in heat: a pretest, a PowerPoint presentation, Internet exploration, demonstrations, lab activities, and...

Learners investigate why some potato chips crumple faster than others. In this physics lessons, students relate the cooking time to potato's fragility. They write a lab report about their findings.

Students investigate how geologic sequestration reduces carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere. In this earth science lesson plan, students simulate oil mining in the lab. They write down their observations and complete the lab...

Students research the mechanics of liquid chromatography. In this technology lesson plan, students calculate the concentration of unknown samples. They write a report about their research and lab results.

Tenth graders investigate the process of how specific products are made from trees. For this chemistry lesson, groups of students must choose among ice cream, bubble gum, paper, toothpaste and lipstick. They research, design and...

Learners define what a redox reaction is. In this chemistry lesson, students electroplate some wires in the lab. They research the application of electroplating in the real world.

Learners research on the history of adhesives. In this science lesson, students select one test to use in finding the stickiness of adhesives. They collect data and formulate a conclusion.

Students identify the different parts and functions of the cardiovascular system. In this forensics lesson, students collect and analyze evidence on a fictional crime. They describe different causes of cardiac arrest.
