Acids & Bases: What's the Solution?
Students conduct an experiment called "What's the Solution? Acid, Base or Neutral." to determine the differences between these types of substance.
Curated OER
Making A Natural pH Indicator
Students make their own pH indicator from red cabbage. Red cabbage contains a chemical that turns from its natural deep purple color to red in acids and blue in bases. Students boil the cabbage to get the pH indicator.
Curated OER
Soil Buffering
Students observe the pH change of an acid mixture poured over soil in a filter. Since the buffering capability of soils differs, you may want to do this experiment with several different soil types.
Curated OER
Observing Buffers In Lakes, Ponds And Streams
Young scholars observe the effects of limestone on the acidity of water. Some areas of the nation have a lot of limestone in lake bottoms and in soil, which helps neutralize the effects of acid rain. Students see this effect first hand.
Curated OER
Looking At Acid's Effects On Metals
Students perform an experiment that demonstrates acid rain. The chemical effect of acids on metals may take at least five days for the human eye to see, even though the reaction starts as soon as the acid contacts the metal.
Curated OER
Igneous Rocks/Volcanoes
Students differentiate between the two types of igneous rock and designate the area the rock comes from.
Curated OER
Soil Analysis Lesson Plan
Students practice calculating density and examine examples of the physical characteristics of soil. They solve a "crime" based on the evidence and laboratory investigations.
Curated OER
DNA: What Does It Mean?
Tenth graders explore DNA using online tutorial. They perform their own DNA extraction from a clove of garlic and identify the key components of DNA.
Curated OER
Boom and Fizz
Students investigate the differences between a physical and chemical change. They observe various demonstrations involving physical or chemical changes, make predictions, and record what they see, hear, and smell.
Curated OER
The Last Great Canal
Learners read about a cholera outbreak in the 1840's. They read maps, predict how cholera moved throughout the country and participate in a lab activity that demonstrates how disease is spread. They compare cholera through time.
Curated OER
Introduction to Volcanoes
Students develop a basic understanding of volcanoes. They watch a PowerPoint Presentation which introduces three types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and composite volcanoes.
Curated OER
Scientific Method "Lab Writeup"
Students analyze and experience the scientific method. They discuss the various steps of the method, conduct various experiments, and write a three-paragraph essay regarding their conclusion.
Curated OER
Solids, Liquids, and Gases
Students explore the three main forms of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. They examine concrete examples of each, using their five senses and "experimenting" to find differences in them. They find pictures of each, cut them out and past...
Curated OER
Hot Gas Or Cold Gas Lab
Students engage in a lab project to study chemical reactions. They use guided questions to help facilitate the lab experience and come to the correct outcomes. The lesson does not contain a true understandable objective. The lesson could...
Curated OER
It's in the Bag!
Eighth graders measure temperature changes and make drawings of the interactions between matter and energy. By measuring the temperature students can conclude if there are changes in levels of energy.

Curated OER
Human Impact on the Environment and Pollution
Pupils illustrate the impact humans have on the environment through analogies and models. They observe demonstrations of human impact and pollution and create a composite picture of how people can have an impact on their environment.
Curated OER
Identifying Acids and Bases
Sixth graders observe the physical and chemical change that can occur in an acid and a base. In this acids and bases lesson plan, 6th graders use cabbage juice to identify, compare, and contrast acids and bases.
Curated OER
Introduction to Neutraliization
Students explore acids and bases and the process of neutralization.T hey practice volume measurements and observe the neutralization of an acid
directly through bubble formation and indirectly through indicator color changes.
Curated OER
Invisible Ink
Young scholars wxplore acids and indicators by watching a demostration in which "magic" ink appears. They duplicate the demonstration by writing magic messages using phenolphthalein solution and painting the message with vinegar to show it.
Curated OER
Festival of Flight Special: Opening Space for Next Generation Explorers
Students experience the dynamic skills and processes needed to design the next generation of launch vehicles at NASA. They view how mathematics, science and technology all work together to achieve excellence in human space flights.
Curated OER
Diseases
Sixth graders create a type of notebook or journal using colored copy paper on which to take notes. They complete research on a certain disease and report on it and then design their own disease causing bacteria or virus. Finally, 6th...
Curated OER
pH Pre-Lab: Acids and Bases
In this chemistry lab, students determine whether or not their saliva is acidic, basic, or neutral. After completing their test, they answer 6 analysis questions.
Curated OER
Chemical Reactions
In this chemical reactions worksheet, students determine if solutions are acidic, basic, or neutral. Students give reactions' molecular equations and ionic equations. This worksheet has 14 problems to solve.
