The Nature Of Dissolving Processes
Students examine the rule of "like dissolves like." They define and describe solutions and solubility models on molecular liquids, ionic solids, and molecular solids.
Curated OER
On the Surface Of Things
The purpose of this unit is for students to engage in thinking about the links between science and art. We want to provide students with the opportunity to see original artifacts related to natural occurances.
Curated OER
Winds Go Spinning Around
High schoolers simulate the Coriolis Effect to comprehend why winds in the Westerlies are prone to cyclonic and anti-cyclonic motion. They arrive at an explanation of processes that drive world wind patterns
Curated OER
Tanker Spills
Students predict the flow of an oil spill and depict it on a map. They explain the predicted route of the oil spill using knowledge of ocean currents in a short presentation to their peers.
Curated OER
Elements and the Periodic Table
Students are introduced to the elements on the Periodic Table and what is meant by element. Using the Table, they identify the name, atomic mass, number and symbol of each element. To end the instructional activity, they discover the...
