In this molecular geometry and VSEPR worksheet, students find bond angles, hybridization, determine polarity and draw orbital box diagrams of molecules. They determine molecular geometry and bond angles of given molecules and determine...

In this solids worksheet, students explain why solids are more dense than other states of matter. Students compare ionic solids and covalent network solids. This worksheet has 6 short answer questions.

Students determine the meanings of concentration, surface area, and catalysis through an experiment. In this lesson about chemical reactions, students participate in an experiment. Students complete three different parts of the...

Students explore convection. In this lesson on heat and energy, students investigate how heat moves in convection currents. They use their finding to better understand how convection currents effect the movement of tectonic plates.

Students discuss and experiment with the phases of water.  In this phases of matter lesson plan, students recognize the different states of matter.  Students measure and record changes and understand when the state changes.

In this participial adjectives worksheet, students choose the correct way to complete the sentences with adjectives either ending in -ed or -ing. Students complete 16 sentences.

First graders investigate the different water formations by conducting an experiment.  In this water properties lesson, 1st graders examine jars filled with ice, rain water, air and snow in their class.  Students predict what...

Students conduct a series of experiments in which they explore chemical reactions. They detect chemical changes by observing how physical properties change when two different chemicals are combined. They list and describe the reactants...

Students discuss plate tectonics and the layers of the earth's interior. They use eggs as models of the earth and answer questions regarding which part of the egg would represent which part of the earth.

In this heating and cooling curve instructional activity, students use a given graph of a substance being heated from a solid to a liquid and then a gas over time. They use the graph to answer eleven questions about the phases of the...

Students explore liquids and solids by conducting in class experiments. In this matter lesson, students define the properties of matter and how heat can change those properties. Students experiment with heating objects such as butter and...

Students are told that objects in contact with one another reach an equilibrium temperature. A hot object placed in a cool liquid always cool off. It never happens that the object gets hotter and cool liquid gets colder. Students predict...

Young scholars study the Periodic Table to investigate basic properties of metals used to make coins. They discuss how historic events like the Civil War and Gold Rush had a direct impact on the trime.

Learners categorize items into one of the three states of matter. They participate in a demonstration in which they represent particles of matter. Finally, they complete an experiment in which they "race" top see who can make acetone...

Students explore the effects that extreme temperatures have on the material properties of solids. They investigate the properties of a material whose state depends on extreme temperatures and witness how it interacts with room...

Sixth graders examine the processes and transformations that occur in carbon pools. They play a game to identify paths taken by carbon through the environment.

In this elements learning exercise, students learn about the elements found in the actinide group including those that occur naturally and those that have been artificially produced. This learning exercise has 5 short answer questions.

Students explain what factors determine density. In this physics lesson, students hypothesize which objects are less dense. They cite the importance of density in everyday life.

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.

In this general science learning exercise, students find 32 science words reviewing states of matter and types of substances. Students may self correct by selecting the link at the bottom of the page.

Students study the different types of metals.  In this investigative lesson students watch a demonstration on the effects of temperature on atoms and take a tour through baone matter.

In this periodic table I quiz, students select the best answer to the given questions. Students apply their knowledge of the periodic table and the arrangement to correctly answer the questions presented.

In this heat worksheet, students determine the heat gained or lost when matter changes phases. Students review the energy flow through ecosystems by comparing trophic levels and food webs. This worksheet has 10 fill in the blank, 5 short...

Students practice speaking and using vocabulary associated with the kitchen.  In this speaking and vocabulary lesson, students answer teacher questions about the kitchen and the items in the kitchen. Teacher evaluates student answers.
