Where's the Evidence?
Eighth graders observe evidence of chemical reactions. In this chemical reactions instructional activity students study chemical processes and complete a lab activity.
Curated OER
Converting Metric Units and Prefixes
Students investigate the length of various objects. In this measurement instructional activity, students convert one metric unit to another. They explain the importance of a uniform system of measurement.
Curated OER
Calculating the Average Mass of the Newly Discovered Element: Bean
Learners determine the average mass of a new element using masses from three isotopes. In this chemistry lesson, students explain what an isotope is. They discuss their importance and uses.
Curated OER
How Can You Study Things You Can’t See Like: Atoms?
Students simulate how scientists studied things they can't see like atoms. In this chemistry lesson, students predict what is inside the numbered obsertainers. They design a way to investigate what's inside without opening it.
Curated OER
Physics Post-Lab
Students explore physics. In this science lesson, students discuss physics in their everyday lives. Students complete a physics worksheet.

Serc: Investigating Matter: Identifying Properties and States of Matter
In this activity about matter, students investigate the three states of matter by participating in a small group lab. Students will observe, question, and investigate the properties of solids, liquids, and gases.
University of California
Ucsb Chemistry and Biochemistry: Models Matter
Matter of any type can be subdivided into particles that are too small to see, but even then the matter still exists and can be detected by other means. Young scholars will participate in hands-on activities to prove that matter is made...
