You can detail the important terms in element classification through this useful resource. This presentation describes individual elements, and details characteristics, and general facts that can make them easier to group.

A huge collection of slides introduces chemistry learners to the periodic table of elements, electron configuration, and electronegativity. It opens with the history of today's periodic table, and then details the arrangement. After...

In this elements worksheet, students complete a crossword puzzle by figuring out the vocabulary words associated with the 25 clues given.

Young scholars collect and categorize solid waste produced in the classroom. They weigh the waste that has been collected over one week's time, and separate it into recyclable and non-recyclable waste. They talk about the role of...

This PowerPoint progresses slide-by-slide through all the facts you would want to deliver about acids, alkalis, salts, and the related lab tests. Each slide has one or two facts about a physical or chemical property or behavior. The...

Fifth graders, after brainstorming why conservation of resources is important, distinguish between renewable and non-renewable resources. They make a list of different types of natural resources on the board and then sort them into two...

In this naming compounds worksheet, students are given a chart to determine if the compound they are naming is ionic, covalent or polyatomic. Students practice identifying and naming ionic, covalent and polyatomic compounds. They define...

In this periodic table worksheet, students are given 12 terms and must match the terms to their appropriate definition. Topics include types of bonds, types of elements, and types of ions.

An organized table charting the different types of chemical bonds arrays this resource. The octet rule, ionization energy, and the naming of compounds are also reviewed. Young chemists answer review questions in multiple choice fashion....

Elementary, middle, and high schoolers design canvas folding screens; much like the ones that are so prevalent in Asian homes. Be warned that this art lesson requires a lot of materials, so it will be expensive to implement. However, the...

Students create non-objective art based on the design elements of line, color, balance and movement using tape. This simple lesson plan encourages students to create patterns by overlapping and defining lines on a canvas panel. One of...

Sixty multiple-choice chemistry questions make up this comprehensive exam used for the 2001 US National Chemistry Olympiad. Every topic that you would expect to approach in a general chemistry class is queried on. You could easily use...

This 60-question comprehensive exam was designed to determine who would go on to compete in the 2000 US National Chemistry Olympiad. Hopefuls answer multiple choice questions regarding all chemistry topics taught in the first year...

Second graders discover what magnets can do. In this magnet lesson students make predictions about magnets. They experiment with the magnets and record their data on a chart.

In this atoms learning exercise, high schoolers complete 58 questions about the atomic radius of atoms, the ionization energy, the valence electrons, metals, non-metals and semi-metals and the families of elements.

In this atom worksheet, students complete 60 questions about the trends in atoms such as ionization energy and atomic radius, about valence electrons, about the families of elements, about metals, non-metals and semi-metals, about the...

In this families of the periodic table worksheet, students complete a table with the characteristics of elements in the 10 families of the periodic table. Students fill in the blank sections using their text book as a resource. They must...

In this periodic table worksheet, learners answer 10 questions about the periodic table, the elements in the periodic table, the properties of elements and the atomic number, symbol and name of elements in groups of the periodic table.

In this minerals and rocks worksheet, students answer questions about the chemistry of minerals, scratch tests, rocks and the rock cycle, and erosion and deposition.

High schoolers research about the chemical processes involved in cave formation. In this chemistry lesson, students draw or find a cave picture with stalagmites and stalactites online. They write a brief caption and share them with the...

Students identify the various natural resources used to produce common items; to explain how people use science and technology to produce those items.

There are 17 multiple choice questions on this periodic table test. The focus is on properties of the elements by group and period. The exam is not formatted well, making it a little difficult to read. There is also a typographical...

In this metals learning exercise, learners read about the different properties of aluminum, copper, and iron and determine why these metals are used the way they are. The exercise has five short answer questions.

For this pH learning exercise, high schoolers determine how indicators work and what the pH scale is used for. Students learn what happens when non-metals burn in air and metal oxides dissolve in water. This learning exercise has 10...
