Studying with Chemical Compounds
Students create a foldable to help them remember topics on chemical compounds. In this physical science instructional activity, students differentiate ionic and covalent compounds. Given certain compounds, they identify whether it's...
Curated OER
Isomers and Polymers
Young scholars create models of structural isomers, geometric isomers, and polymers. In this chemistry lesson, students are given definitions and molecular model kits to create a variety of different isomers and polymers.
Curated OER
Glucose
High schoolers conduct various experiments on glucose. In this biology lesson, students differentiate the process of diffusion and osmosis. They test different foods for the presence of glucose and starch.
Curated OER
Ions in the Environment
Students explain the importance of the five main biogeochemical cycles. In this chemistry instructional activity, students discuss how ions are transported in the environment. They design an experiment to collect data on eutrophication.
Curated OER
Art Nouveau
Students study the design elements of Art Nouveau, its sources and development. They create art projects in ceramics and glass that exemplify the focus of Art Nouveau as a decorative style.
