Does it feel a little humid in here? Learners assume the role of water vapor in the atmosphere as they explore the differences between warm and cold air. They roll dice to determine their level of energy, which determines if they...

Get a charge out of a great resource! Scholars use an interactive to explore addition and subtraction of integers. They add or remove electrons in an atom model to consider its charge.

Young scientists create a simulation of Hubble's law. Introducing the Big Bang Theory using balloons and a simple lab instructional activity, scholars complete a data table and perform analysis.

High schoolers are introduced to the structure of an atom and Dalton's atomic theory through a short video and mini-lecture. They also take a look at the weight of mass and become familiar with the idea of quantum theory

Students identify the different states of matter. For 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.

Students examine the differences between a virus and a bacteriophage. They explore various websites, identify the parts of a virus and a bacteriophage, and construct a model of a virus or bacteriophage.

In this chemistry science activity, students identify the parts of a chemical reactions. Students name the major particles of the atom. Students apply knowledge about the atom, theories, and models.

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. 

Learners explain historical findings such as Rutherford and Bohr's contributions, explain wave particle duality, and formulate Heinsenberg's uncertainty principle. They also draw s, p, and d orbitals, explain more historical findings,...

In this biochemistry worksheet, students complete a table by filling in the missing information about different elements. Students draw the Bohr diagram and the Lewis dot diagram for several atoms.

In this atoms worksheet, students circle the term in parentheses that makes the 20 statements correct. The statements review the parts of an atom, isotopes, and basic matter principles.

Learners examine concepts of nuclear chemistry. They compare and contrast the topics of nuclear fission and nuclear fision. They predict the outcome of reactions based on the types of emissions and reactants.

Fifth graders brainstorm what forms of energy are used in an energy bike listing them on the board with the description placed beside each form for reference. They work in pairs to diagram the energy transformations that occurred while...

Students create models of structural isomers, geometric isomers, and polymers.  In this chemistry instructional activity, students are given definitions and molecular model kits to create a variety of different isomers and polymers.
