Introduction to Atoms
In this atoms worksheet, students answer four different sets of questions related to atoms (fill in the blank, multiple choice, word puzzle and true and false).
Curated OER
Half Lives
Students investigate the concept of half-life by conducting an M&M experiment. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate nuclear fusion and fission. They present investigation findings to class.
Curated OER
Classifying Matter Game
Students identify the different states of matter. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate the physical properties of the three states. They apply what they learned by playing a team game at the end of the lesson.
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...
Curated OER
The Carbon Cycle
Fifth graders examine the carbon cycle, periodic table, and photosynthesis and respiration. They analyze the periodic table and how it is organized, then complete the "Elementary, Dear Watson" worksheet. Students then examine a carbon...
Curated OER
Animated Chemical Bonding
Students demonstrate their understanding of a chemical process. In this exploratory lesson students create a clay animation that shows how a specific type of chemical bond.
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Density Phenomena
Students investigate the relationship between volume and mass in different liquids such as vegetable oil, rubbing alcohol and water. They measure the mass of several different volumes of each liquid and then graph the results as well as...
Curated OER
Cell physiology and chemistry
Students design an experiment to discriminate between chemical diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion and active transport through a membrane. Be specific about predictions and interpretations!
Curated OER
Let the Sunshine in
Students collect and analyze data to study wavelengths of visible light. They cover Styrofoam cups with three different colors of sun filtering products and shine a lamp directly on the cups. They determine the most effective filtering...
Curated OER
Detecting Disease
In this detecting disease worksheet, students will review the different tools scientists use to identify diseases including the steps of Koch's postulates. This worksheet has 14 fill in the blank and 4 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Structure of Matter
For this science puzzle worksheet, students solve a crossword puzzle related to matter. For example, "Scientist who discovered protons."
Curated OER
Physical and Chemical Changes
Eighth graders view a PowerPoint presentation that assist them in distinguishing between physical and chemical changes. They compare their observations of demonstrations to a list of clues recognizing types of changes.
Curated OER
Flame Test
Students conduct a flame test on different substances. In this chemistry lesson, students predict the element present based on the color emitted during the flame test. They explain how different elements produce different colors.
Curated OER
Pauli's Magical Water
Students predict the shape of molecules using VSEPR theory. In this chemistry lesson, students differentiate a polar and nonpolar molecule. They discuss why water's polarity is very important.
Curated OER
Static Cling
Students 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.
Curated OER
Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy
Students calculate the values of electron binding energies. In this physics lesson, students solve for different wavelength characteristics of X-rays. They present their findings to the class.
Curated OER
Automated Vehicle Programming Design
Students design a program to make an automated vehicle perform a specific task. In this robotics lesson, students play the role of scientists competing to win a factory's contract. They present their algorithm to class.
Curated OER
Extraction of DNA from White Onion
Learners 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
Causal Patterns in Density Phenomena
Learners consider the causes of density at a microscopic level. They then discover that one cause of density has to do with how many protons and neutrons the material contains.
Curated OER
The Physical Setting
Students study atoms and their protons and neutrons. In this physical setting lesson students work together to complete a lab activity.
Curated OER
How Can You Study Things You Can’t See Like: Atoms?
Young scholars simulate how scientists studied things they can't see like atoms. In this chemistry lesson, students predict what is inside the numbered obsertainers. They design a way to investigate what's inside without opening it.

Universe Today; What Is John Dalton's Atomic Model?
Article explaining the legacy of John Dalton. His research into gases led to his gas laws and then his proposed atomic model. The flaws in his atomic theory are discussed also. (Jan. 20, 2016)
Concord Consortium
Concord Consortium: Stem Resources: Atomic Structure
Introduces learners to atomic models of the past and present, focusing on the orbital model and an explanation of its basis. Learners then have the opportunity to "make an atom" and contrast it with an ion, followed by an isotope. The...
