In this inorganic compounds worksheet, students complete 2 charts by writing the names or chemical formulas of given ionic and covalent compounds.

Students investigate the length of various objects. In this measurement activity, students convert one metric unit to another. They explain the importance of a uniform system of measurement.

Students demonstrate their understanding of a chemical process.  In this exploratory lesson students create a clay animation that shows how a specific type of chemical bond. 

Brilliant graphics depict a variety of allotropes, especially the allotropes of carbon. Some notes are available to help make these useful for teaching your young chemists, but not for every slide. With some additional preparation on...

In this chemistry worksheet, learners examine the oxidation state in order to apply it in the laboratory setting. The sheet includes in depth background information.

In this review for chemistry worksheet, students decide if given statements are true or false. Students relate information learned about introductory knowledge gained in chemistry to accurately answer the given questions.

Students experiment to show their knowledge of molecules and atomic structures.  In this chemistry review lesson students participate in an activity and then fill out a worksheet.

In this atoms learning exercise, students review terms associated with atoms which includes isotopes, transmutation, and radioactive decay. This learning exercise has 11 short answer questions.

For this rocks worksheet, students review the process of absolute dating of rocks and compare it to the relative dating process. This worksheet has 16 fill in the blank questions.

Students engage in a paper treasure hunt to find a lode deposit of gold using the placer deposit concentrations of metals found in stream sediments. They use topographic maps and metal concentrations to assist them. Students discuss the...

Students conduct research of the history of atomic theory. Information is presented from Democritus and Aristotle to the early Renaissance using the Internet and video.The integration of technology allows for a vast amount of research...

Students identify the periodic table trends and predict material properties. They also design and conduct simple experiments and test material properties. Finally, students compare and contrast material properties and that chemical...

Young scholars identify how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass. They identify how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and halogens, and also,...

Young scholars relate to the idea of periodicity & give example of other periodic events and identify and use the periodic table as a useful resource. They also identify the relationship of elements to certain groups & periods...

Young scholars, in groups, take samples from a creek and keep a field journal on their samples. They also perform tests on their samples.

Learners figure the number of half-lives since the sample solidified, and therefore the "age" of the sample rocks.

Pupils review atomic structure and then participate in a activity in which they categorize several "elements" into some form of order based on their properties. They discuss the trends they see. They also practice several electron...

The purpose of this lesson plan involves reviewing nomenclature and molecular formulas as well as introducing naming molecular compounds and identifying acids. The students investigate and understand how conservation of energy and matter...

In this reactions worksheet, learners describe combustion as either exothermal or endothermal. Students balance reactions and label the types of reactions. This worksheet has 1 multiple choice, 2 short answer, and 10 problem solving...

High schoolers examine pollutants and investigate air pollution emitted by a car in a year.  In this air pollution lesson students complete an activity and make calculations. 

Young scholars create a polymer to demonstrate its properties and develop an awareness of the wide variety of uses for polymers.

Students plot earthquake and volcano data using a Compass Rose Plotting. They explain the relationship between plate movement and connection. They draw conclusions that earthquakes and volcanoes occur in predictable locations.

Students participate in an activity in which they demonstrate how the evaporations of water from the oceans results in fresh water in the form of rain. They create a saltwater solution in a flask and boil the water until most of the...

Students examine carbon dioxide and determine the impact of greenhouse gases on the earths spheres.  In this pollution lesson students complete a lab activity to see the impact of gases on the environment,
