In this age of rocks worksheet, students answer five matching questions about terms related to the decay of atoms. They use a strip of paper to simulate half life of atoms and determine the total amount of time it took to deplete the paper.

In this ages of rock activity, students review the processes involved with determining the ages of rocks which includes the radioactive decay of carbon-14. This activity has 5 matching and 5 short answer questions.

In this rocks learning exercise, students review the process of absolute dating of rocks and compare it to the relative dating process. This learning exercise has 16 fill in the blank questions.

In this nuclear chemistry worksheet, students determine the biological effects and the applications of nuclear chemistry. Then students use Einstein's theory of special relativity to complete 3 problems.

In this radioactive decay and half-life worksheet, students use given half-lifes to calculate the amount of time it will take for certain amounts of elements to decay. They also find the age of samples and determine how many grams of...

In this history of life learning exercise, students complete a crossword puzzle by figuring out the vocabulary words associated with the 11 clues given. Then students review how paleontologists use fossils to learn more about past living...

In this absolute time learning exercise, students answer eleven questions about ways to measure the age of fossils. They define half-life, answer questions about radioactive dating, tree rings and varves.

A series of math and science activities feature M&M's® as manipulatives to help kids work through equations. The resource includes exercises on finding averages, percent of compositions, moles in chemical reactions, genotypes and...

In this absolute time learning exercise, students define radiometric dating, tree rings and varves as means to measure absolute time. They are given information about each of these methods of dating.

In this detailed and comprehensive multi-day activity, budding evolutionary biologists use real data from lizard populations in the Canary Islands to examine evolution and natural selection. 

In this energy from atoms worksheet, students match 10 sentences to given terms related to nuclear energy, electricity, fission, and nuclear reactions. They also answer 3 questions about nuclear waste and atomic reactions.
