Curated OER
Solubility
Fifth graders determine the difference between a soluble and an insoluble solution and how to increase solubility. They make a saturated solution using solvents at different temperatures.
Curated OER
Rock Candy Crystals
Students discover how rocks are created. In this rock formation lesson, students investigate saturation, evaporation, and phase changes in geology. Students create rock candy from skewers, string, boiling water and sugar.
Curated OER
Ice Energy
Students observe the chemical reaction that occurs when salt is put on ice, and use the energy that is released to make ice cream.
Curated OER
Ice Energy
Learners study the concept of ice energy. In this ice energy lesson, students observe what happens when salt is sprinkled on a piece of ice before following a recipe to make two types of ice cream. They note the difference in the two...
Curated OER
Ice Energy
Students investigate how salt affects the state of ice. In this ice cream making lesson plan, students change the freezing temperature by adding salt and observing the results. Students use experimentation and comparison to see how...
Curated OER
Ice Energy
Young scholars explore how chemicals change water. In this chemical change lesson, students participate in an experiment to observe how salt effects ice and how ice cream freezes.
Curated OER
Ice Energy
Students learn how science affects foods. In this chemical reactions lesson, students make two kinds of ice cream. They evaluate the different changes based on the ingredients.
