This very thorough lesson plan has pupils collect all ingredients necessary and work in pairs to make ice cream using plastic bags. They take temperature readings and record them on the chart as well as record findings on the...

Fourth graders explore whether the making of homemade ice cream is a physical change or a chemical change in a lab experiment. Students identify states of matter, describe the physical properties of states, and collect temperature data...

In this chemistry lesson, students create their own ice cream. Students discuss what would have happened if they had used different ingredients.

Students investigate the effects of temperature change on phase changes. They explore the effects of changes in freezing point and incorporate the law of conservation of energy. They utilize these concepts to make ice cream.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! Even high schoolers enjoy making ice cream. This laboratory exercise has them record the temperature changes throughout the process of liquid becoming solid, graph the results, and...

Students examine the different propereties of ice, such as freezing temperature.  In this scientific lesson students complete several activities using ice, like making ice cream.

Student make ice cream and study the chemistry of how it is made and frozen.

Students explore the concept of the colligative property. Through experimentation, students lower the freezing point of a liquid in order to create a solid by using household ingredients to create ice cream.

Third graders investigate why ice cream does not go through any chemical changes when it is exposed to physical changes. They describe the three states of matter in either written or verbal form. Then students experiment with ice cream...

Fourth graders identify characteristics of a simple physical and chemical change. They describe objects by the properties of the materials from which they are made and that these properties can be used separate. Students describe the...

Fourth graders explore properties of bubbles. In this lesson about bubbles, 4th graders perform an experiment. Students analyze the properties of bubble making substances and surface tension. Students create a square bubble. Students...

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

Students construct a comet model based on procedure provided. In this space science lesson plan, students compare the physical properties of comets to the models they made. They record their observations and share them with the class.

Students pose scientific questions about food items and research their explanations. They then create recipe cards with the answers and present their findings in a cooking show format.
