Students predict, observe and draw conclusions while working on an experiment with "slime." Students accurately record observations and draw conclusions about the experiment.

Young scholars mix two different solutions to become more familiar with molecules and polymers. In this chemistry lesson, students decide whether or not the reaction between two solutions is chemical or physical. Young scholars then...

Students participate in an experiment in which they culture bacteria in a lab setting. They record their observations and analyze the data. They answer comprehension questions to end the lesson.

Students observe an experiment of freezing point depression using club soda. Through observation, they note that the carbon dioxide molecules disrupt the capacity of the water molecules to solidify. Precautions must be taken to assure...

Students investigate molecular movement while studying how to perform a chemistry investigation.

Students determine what characteristics are useful in classifying items.  In this sorting organisms lesson plan students create and explain a classification scheme using familiar organisms. 

Students explore acids, bases, and indicators. They observe the various colors of an acid-base indicator solution and the neutralization of an acidic solution by an antacid.

Students examine the rule of "like dissolves like." They define and describe solutions and solubility models on molecular liquids, ionic solids, and molecular solids.

Students participate in a lab experiment involving soap bubbles and making bubble prints. They blow bubbles into the soap and add paint to make bubble prints. With extra time, they can play with a variety of bubble toys to see what...

Eighth graders explore and demonstrate the seven steps of the scientific method. They predict how much sugar is in chewing gum and test, analyze, and calculate the sugar content of gum.

Students make a polymer but they won't be getting instructions. They'll get materials and they must figure it out on their own and report the actual steps needed back to the teacher.

In this systems of equations instructional activity, students solve 6 systems using the substitution method. Students then set up and solve 2 systems of equations word problems, one being a mixture problem.

Young scholars explore how chemicals change water. In this chemical change instructional activity, students participate in an experiment to observe how salt effects ice and how ice cream freezes.

Students solve systems of equations. For this algebra lesson, students use elimination and substitution to solve for the point of intersection. They use graphing to see where the two lines intersect.

Pupils use one of four absorbent products to separate as much of the oil and water mixture they are able to do. The purpose of this task is for students to collect and analyze data for the purpose of determining which absorbent is best,...

Second graders discover the process of osmosis. For this science lesson plan, 2nd graders learn how different kinds of solutions move through selectively permeable membranes, understand the role of osmosis in the movement of molecules,...

Students work in small groups with a small set of 8 nuts and 5 bolts to assemble into combinations of 1 nut: 1 bolt, and 2 nuts: 1 bolt. They explore the outcome and discuss. Then a student mixes two clear, colorless solutions together...

Students conduct experiments designed to detect the presence of CO2 by using a BTB that changes color (blue to yellow) in the presence of CO2. First, students experiment with the CO2 from combining vinegar and baking soda. In part two,...

In this chemistry competencies worksheet, students calculate rate law, balance equations, determine pH of solutions, give the oxidation number for atoms, and write in formulas. This worksheet has 4 fill in the blank questions and 20...

Students collect data on causes of Acid Rain. In this science lesson, students simulate the effects that produce acid rain, collect and analyze data from their samples. They relate science and statistics in this lesson.  

In this equilibrium instructional activity, students predict the concentrations of solutions at equilibrium and apply Le Chatelier's principle to systems at equilibrium. This instructional activity has 15 multiple choice questions.

In this equilibrium worksheet, students solve eight problems including determining the effects of changes to a system as it related to Le Chatelier Principle, calculating equilibrium constants and finding boiling points of solutions.

Students create coal flowers. In this mining lesson plan, students discuss the importance of coal during the 1800s and use ingredients to make coal flowers. Students determine the effect temperature has on crystal formation.

Students explore biology by participating in a fun science experiment. In this DNA instructional activity, students discuss what DNA is and where it comes from. Students utilize two bananas, a blender and a microscope to view the DNA of...
