In this chemical reaction principles worksheet, students read about definite proportions and the law of conservation of mass. Students read about how to balance a chemical equation. Then students complete 20 fill in the blank, 2 short...

For this rainbow spinner worksheet, students participate in making a rainbow spinner in order to investigate the splitting and mixing of light. Students study the theory of persistence of vision.

Sixth graders combine chemicals to create a chemical change. For this chemicals lesson plan, 6th graders will investigate characteristics of chemical change by combining chemicals. They will learn that color change is an indicator of...

Students experiment with the cohesion of water molecules. In this surface tension lesson, students estimate how many drops of water a full glass can take before overflowing. They watch a video that explains water molecules.

For this introduction to chemistry worksheet, students complete 48 problem solving and fill in the blank questions. They convert measurements from one unit to another.

Students are challenged to eat some candy as a cell would need to do it. By solving this problem students simulate the cell process called endocytosis. They think about some of the problems that arise when a cell ingests food.

Learners investigate the characteristics of eggs by playing and experimenting with them.

Sixth graders conduct experiments with yeast to study characteristics of microorganisms. They, working is small groups, change the variables in the experiments and note the results which they later discuss as a class.

Students examine the concept of transpiration. They work together to complete an experiment in which they see water loss in plants. They record their observations and discuss their conclusions.

Students use adding machine tape to plot increasing ocean depths and deep sea historical events.

Students watch a video clip about German submarines lost during World War II. They work together to create their own submarine out of a plastic bottle. They test the buoyancy of the submarine in different activities.

Middle schoolers build an apparatus to look at how yeast cells grow by converting food to energy. They observe yeast both with and without food and see how yeast produces carbon dioxide.

Students conduct two set experiments on Lumbriculus worms and create a third experiment of their own. The first of the two set experiments allows students to observe regeneration of the worms while the second allows students to test the...

Students break into four groups, starting at different stations. Each station should take about 10 minutes depending on prior knowledge of the topic. They then rotate when everyone is finished to the next station and discuss answers of...

Young scholars create glue from milk by curdling milk with an acid. In this protein denaturing lesson plan, students experiment with milk and vinegar to denature the proteins in milk, create curds and whey and use the curds to produce...

In this chemical reactions worksheet, students read about the differences between physical and chemical changes in substances. Then students identify situations as either an example of physical or chemical change. Students learn how to...

In this chemical reactions worksheet, students compare endothermic and exothermic reactions, closed and open systems, and reactants and products. Students review physical and chemical changes and how to balance equations. This worksheet...

In this organic compounds, students complete a graphic organizer by placing 36 vocabulary words into their correct places in the concept map.

In this percent composition worksheet, students carry out an experiment to determine the percent of zinc in a penny. They write a balanced equation for the chemical reaction they performed with the penny and hydrochloric acid.

For this chemical reactions worksheet, students experiment with hydrochloric acid and copper (I) chloride to identify the types of reactions they undergo with various other substances. They also observe the law of conservation of mass...

Students learn along with Ms. Frizzle's class. In this Magic School Bus lesson plan, students learn that baking is like a chemistry experiment as they make chemistry happen by following a recipe for pretzels.

In this vapor pressure worksheet, students use a given graph of the vapor pressure of four liquids to answer eleven questions. They compare and find boiling points and vapor pressures of propanone, ethanol, water, and ethanoic acid.

In this solids, liquids and gases worksheet, high schoolers observe a teacher demonstration about gases and they experiment with liquids to show diffusion, shape and volume. They answer nine questions about the experiments related to...

In this chemical and physical change activity, students read about the differences between substances going through physical changes vs. chemical changes. They are given examples of each and evidence to look for in chemical changes. They...
