Students are provided with the opportunity to explore and learn about atoms and molecules, the building blocks of matter. They will observe ice melting, and view a video that gives information about the phases of matter. They then will create a writing assignment from the perspective of an ice cube. Full Review »

Students conduct several simple lab activities to explore the five fundamental load types that can act on structures: tension, compression, shear, bending, and torsion. In this activity, students play the role of molecules in a beam subject to various loading schemes. The simulation provides an excellent example of how molecules react to various loads.

Students are given an envelope that turns each of them into either a field of grass, or a diary cow, or a famous person (only one type of organism per student). The object is to get the correct building blocks for proteins (amino acids) that are needed to grow. The proteins are assembled using a small piece of masking tape to hold the amino acids together.

Students draw Lewis dot diagrams. They represent geometry of the molecule using diagrams and ball-and-stick models. Students indicate polarity of the molecule. Students identify hybridization of central atoms They fill out the first four columns of the lab worksheet for a pre-lab activity (for homework the night before). Students complete the worksheet and build each molecule during class. Full Review »
