Sixth graders describe the physical and chemical properties of acids. In this chemistry instructional activity, 6th graders test the acidity of different solutions. They identify acids and bases using the pH scale.

Students explore physical and chemical changes. In this chemistry lesson plan, students will go outside to observe changes seen in nature. Students will then work in the lab to identify changes at different stations prior to doing a...

For this redox worksheet, students answer 8 questions. They use a diagram of a Galvanic cell to answer questions as well as write balanced equations and solve problems.

In this environmental lesson young scholars complete a series of multiple choice and short answer questions on animal populations, cell structure and chromosomes.

Students visit a local park to test the quality of the aquatic environments. They search for sources of pollution and examples of pollution control. Based on their obeservations and experiments, they rate their local environment.

High schoolers investigate the mixtures of solutions. They utilize cups filled with bases and acids. Students test and determine the pH of each cup. The multiple cups are compared to each other in order to chart acids and bases according...

Explain how acid rain is measured. They discover how acid rain is monitored in the United States. They compare locally measured pH or rain with that of Great Smoky mountains. They perform Ph tests on rainfall they collect.

Students study the water quality of a stream in their area, by measuring the temperature, pH, alkalinity and conductivity. They integrate biology with earth science when using the microscope to study the living organisms in the water.

Students examine water quality indicators,test water quality and record their results.  For this water quality lesson students complete a water testing lab and complete a lab report. 

Students, using zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha), elodea and an indicator dye, observe and record the role of light in photosynthesis. They consider plant production of carbon dioxide and the use of live materials in biological...

High schoolers are introduced to the various methods of measuring water quality. In groups, they test various water samples using the different methods, writing them down for pH, oxygen, salinity, and nitrate levels. They use their...

Seventh graders discuss water quality, water availability and water resources and how water is used in the world around them. They view a video on water quality then test for pH, temperature and dissolved oxygen to indicate water quality.

Eighth graders experiment what happens when acids and bases are mixed together. In this acids and bases experimental lesson plan, 8th graders decide which of three solutions of unknown pH will neutralize a fourth solution of unknown pH....

Ninth graders study pH, acids, bases, and neutralization. They discuss and apply principles of neutralization to everyday situations (bee stings, indigestion remedies, soil acidity, etc.). They carry out several experiments using acids...

Three lab guides are given here that detail experiments to illustrate the oxidation of glucose for the production of ATP. The first will compare photosynthesis and respiratio and show theimporatnce of both to plants. The next will show...

Young scholars think of one way to detect photosynthesis in plants besides those ways shown in class. They identify the reaction that occurs during photosynthesis. Students define the difference between an acid and a base. They identify...

In this microbiology worksheet, students complete 9 review questions after finishing a group lab in which they perform four biochemical tests to help divide the Enterobacteriaceae into two major groups- E. coli and...

Fifth graders study how respiration and circulation are connected.  In this respiratory lesson students complete several activities to better understand heart rate and carbon dioxide in the body. 

In this materials and properties worksheet, learners examine the names of 15 objects. Students identify the material each of the objects is made of their properties. An answer bank in included.

Fifth graders investigate evidence for changes in matter that occur during a chemical reaction.

Students investigate the acidity and alkalinity of common household products in an experiment. They use red cabbage juice and litmus paper to show the difference between strong acids and bases as they work with vinegar, dish washing...

Students participate in a simulation of how diseases are transmitted. Each student holds a test tube, with only one containing the "disease" while the others have water. They move around the room until told to stop. Using droppers to...

Working with children and adults who have severe communication disorders presents its own set of challenges. The goal of this resource is to provide educators, parents, and guardians with research-based suggestions for how to meet these...

Is the golf course causing issues in the stream? Find out with a resource that has groups perform chemical water tests to analyze the effects of a golf course on a stream. Pupils collect water above and below the course and analyze the...
