Sixth graders become acquainted with the concept of how microorganisms cause disease. They role play that some class members have exhibited some alarming symptoms. Groups must determine which disease the symptoms are pointing to.

Students determine the concentration of acetic acid when the concentration of the base with which is titrated is known. They investigate how to weigh a sample using the balance, measure volumes using graduated cylinder, explore the...

Students study the characteristics of living things and explore the characteristics of viruses including their structure, function, and reproductive cycles. They also explore the impact of viruses on human health by discussing common...

Students provide names of viral diseases that they would possibly like to be infected with today; listing them on the Smart Board. They then come to an agreement about what virus to use and use beakers of fluids to simulate how viruses...

In this solubility worksheet, students determine which solute will be more soluble in the solvent listed. Students complete 7 matching and 3 problems to solve.

Students identify the composition of different pennies. In this chemistry lesson, students use a post 1982 penny to observe chemical change. They explain how to turn a penny from copper to gold.

In this compounds worksheet, young scholars write the polyatomic ionic compound formulas or the compound names. This worksheet has 29 problems to solve.

Students examine the rule of "like dissolves like." They define and describe solutions and solubility models on molecular liquids, ionic solids, and molecular solids.

For this acid and base worksheet, students fill in a table with the type of acid or base and the symbol used in calculations. Types of acids and bases identified include strong acids, weak acids, strong bases, weak bases, Lewis acids, or...
