The Role of Density in Sinking or Floating: Relational Causality
Students watch the teacher do a demonstration of density with diet and regular soda. Note: try this first, as different types of artificial sweetener have different densities. Students discuss density and volume. They discuss "Relational...
Curated OER
Bhopal - Rate of Reaction
Students determine that the rate of reaction is affected by temperature, surface area, concentration of reagent, and addition of a catalyst or inhibitor. They observe that on December 3rd, 1984, 8000 people died when the chemical plant...
Curated OER
Climate And the Greenhouse Effect
Students demonstrate the greenhouse effect. They recognize that relatively small changes to our environment can stimulate significant climate changes. They determine that the "scientific method" is a process of testing hypotheses and...
Curated OER
Yeast Experiments
In this science worksheet, learners explore two experiments involving yeast. Students discover that yeast grows faster at room temperature than at hot or cold temperatures.
Curated OER
Water the Universal Solvent
In this water and solvent learning exercise, learners answer 20 questions about solutes, solvents, polarity in molecules, and the characteristics of water as a solvent. Students answer 3 questions about the lab they completed using...
Curated OER
Soapy Solids
Young scholars observe and explain how a change in temperature causes a physical change in a substance. In this physical science lesson plan, students use a soap making kit to observe the effects of adding heat to the bar soap as they...
Curated OER
How Oceans Affect Climate
Learners draw conclusions about how the ocean affects temperature. In this weather lesson, students use the Internet to gather data to help them come to a conclusion about how the climate in a certain region is directly affected by the...
