Code Makers - Electron Configuration, Aufbau Principle
Learners write the electron configuration of elements using the Aufbau principle. In this chemistry lesson, students build their own key that demonstrates the principle.
Curated OER
Static Cling
Young scholars work together to discover the concept of static electricity. They participate in an experiment in which they test different objects charge. They make observations and record them for later use.

Compounds and Molecules
In this compounds worksheet, high schoolers compare separating elements of a compound and substances in a mixture. Students review melting and boiling point. This worksheet has 1 fill in the blank and 5 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Radioactive Decay/Half Life
Students demonstrate radioactive decay using candy corns. In this Physics lesson, students make predictions, collect data and form conclusions about patterns in radioactive decay.
Curated OER
Drops on a Penny
Eighth graders experiment to determine the number of drops of water a heads up penny hold. They create a stem and leaf graph of the class results and use the data for further experimentation on a tails up penny.

Extraction of DNA from White Onion
Students conduct lab test with minced onion to determine where chromosonal DNA is located within the cell, and whether or not it can be extracted.
Curated OER
Quantum Physics
Students discuss the mass-energy relationship based on Einstein's work. They calculate the energy released in various scenerios and sketch diagrams for the Lyman, Balmer and Pfund Series. In groups, they discuss the role of photons and...
