Seventh graders research about the characteristics and harmful effects of tobacco, alcohol and illegal drugs. In this health science lesson plan, 7th graders organize the information they found on the internet and create a PowerPoint presentation. They present their findings in class.
Consider our energy sources: wood, coal, oil, uranium. Learners compare the pollution to energy produced for each. They practice fractional distillation of an alcohol/water mixture to simulate the process of refining crude oil. Thought-provoking questions are assigned as a follow-up to the laboratory exercise. This is an outstanding resource to add to your physical or earth science repertoire.

Students investigate making esters in the lab. In this ester lesson plan, students mix 3 organic acids with 3 alcohols and a catalyst to form 3 different esters. Students identify the odors of each ester and write the formulas for the products. They answer 5 questions and draw the structural formulas for each esterification reaction.
Sixth graders examine various opinions about alcohol and drug use. They complete a drug use survey, tally, analyze, and discuss the results, discuss the school's drug use, and write a journal response.
