Great lesson plans covering a wide-range of science-related subjects. A wonderful resource for wonderful teachers!

Students observe, on a molecular level, how heating and cooling affect molecular motion.

Young scholars learn about three examples of human impacts on marine life: migration patterns and shipping, algal blooms and water chemistry, and marine debris. Some of these impacts are due to human activity in the ocean, and some...

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP) is an interesting and somewhat publicized environmental problem. A swirling soup of trash up to 10 meters deep and just below the water surface is composed mainly of non-degradable plastics. These...

In this classroom lab, students will investigate the characteristics of a chemical change. Students will also provide a definition of what constitutes a physical change through observation of several examples. Students will use/create...

This lesson focuses on chemical compounds including Ionic and Covalent Bonds, Valences, Lewis Structures, Binary Covalent Compounds, Radicals or Polyatomic Ions, and much more. It also includes a compound worksheet in which the students...

In this chemistry classroom lab activity, students use critical thinking to investigate the molecular properties of different liquids: rubbing alcohol and water.

In this chemistry field/class based activity, students investigate snow and, more specifically, why snowflakes have six sides. Students will individually fossilize a snowflake and observe similarities and differences with other members...

For this activity, students will test the solubility and miscibility of various substances in water, and explain the chemistry involved. They will also be given a solid and a liquid and asked to predict what will happen when each is...
