Third graders write a hazardous products substitutes recipe book. In this Science lesson, 3rd graders identify words and symbols that indicate hazardous substances. Students investigate safe substitutes and write a recipe book to use at...

Be prepared the next time you're in need of a substitute with a daily plan equipped with an assortment of activities covering subjects math, reading, word work, writing, and science. 

In this reactions of substituted benzene worksheet, students write the products for 15 reactions using structural formulas. If the reaction does not occur, they write N.R.

Emergencies happen. Be prepared the next time you have to call in a substitute with a lesson plan designed to meet the needs of a kindergarten class. Throughout the day, class members work with number and alphabet cards, identify numbers...

High schoolers work together to prepare a cookie recipe. In groups, they measure ingredients and review abbreviations and substitutions when it comes to different systems of measurement. To end the instructional activity, they...

In this substituted hydrocarbons activity, high schoolers learn how to name compounds using a table of organic functional groups and the rules for naming hydrocarbon compounds. They practice naming twenty substituted hydrocarbons.

Students investigate toxic substances. For this health lesson, students identify warning labels on common household cleaners and create a "less toxic" cleaning recipe book. Students recite a pledge to try a less toxic substitute at home.

In this chemistry worksheet, students write the products for each of the reactions listed on the sheet. If there is no reaction they write N.R. There are 15 products to solve on the sheet.

Two activities are included in this resource. In the first, junior geologists model sedimentary rock layers, apply the Law of Superposition, and demonstrate folding and faulting of the Earth's crust. The model is technically a sandwich....

This is the grown-up version of the classic "float an egg in salt water" experience, plus an experiment in soap making. High schoolers explore density, but more importantly, practice accuracy, precision, and the use of significant...

Word problems can make even expert mathematicians go blank. Practice solving word problems with an extended version of the GUESS method (givens, unknowns, equations, solve, substitute), which adds the steps of drawing a diagram, making...

It's molecule magic! Skillful scholars explore the effects of different atoms on molecular polarization using an intuitive interactive. The resource displays the charge at different locations on the molecule, then adapts as the user...

Everything you need to have chemistry learners play "Chemical Bingo" is included within these slides. There are two variations of the game available: chemical symbols for elements, or chemical formulas for polyatomic ions. Blank bingo...

Is the ocean blue at all depths? Nope! Explore the science behind the light spectrum in deep, dark waters. The lesson recommends watching The Blue Planet: Open Ocean—The Deep, but it's not integral, or you can substitute another clip....

There's no substitute for the power of the sun. The second of four installments of the Solar Resources Assessment unit looks at macro-scale photovoltaic (PV) technology. Future scientists first learn about PV modules with a PowerPoint...

Use this activity as an anticipatory set to warm up for a instructional activity on predator/prey relationships. Pupils will play a round of "Duck, Duck, Goose," substituting the ducks and geese for two animals that have a predator/prey...

This handout goes along with the slide show linked at the top of the of the resource. Depending on the computer availability in your school, this could be a WebQuest in which learners go through the slide show at their own pace, or...

Young scholars use the exercise as a prelude to a "wet" lab or as a substitute for such a lab. It correlates well with colony transformation labs. This lab is recommended for students what have difficulty with the abstractions that...

In this chemistry worksheet, students complete the reactions by drawing structures of major products, indicating important minor products. They also write the structure of the product and describe the stereo chemistry of the product.

Why do soybean plants that are planted weeks apart in the spring mature simultaneously in the fall? Four independent activities cover the history of phytochrome research, scientist collaboration, the electromagnetic spectrum, and...

From the start of the Industrial Revolution, it only took 147 years for someone to invent plastic. This may seem like a long time, but in the history of inventing or discovering new materials, this is incredibly fast. An informative and...

Do you want to hear a joke about nitrogen and oxygen? NO. We all know there is oxygen in the air and that plants produce oxygen, but how was it discovered? Scholars read a handout, answer questions, and analyze material in the...

Fifth graders pull a paper clip sitting on paper with a magnet beneath the paper. They experiment to see what happens if they substitute the paper with thicker paper and other materials (plywood, glass, foil, etc.)

Explore the five biomes: aquatic, desert, forest, grassland and tundra by using online resources to investigate one of the five biomes and use MediaBlender to create an informational web site for a tour of that biome. Note: Other...
