Four resources make up the SEL toolkit for educators. Intended for those that teach kindergarten to twelfth grade, helpful files include a companion guide, presentation, reference list, and a one-page snapshot that neatly showcases the...

In this atoms worksheet, students explore the different types of bonds, name compounds, and determine charges of molecules. This worksheet has 8 true or false, 9 fill in the blank, and 5 short answer questions.

In this stoichiometry worksheet, students practice calculating moles, molarity, and the concentration of a solution in molarity. This worksheet has 12 multiple choice questions and 3 problems to solve.

Young scholars explore the Sanger sequencing method which produces a nested set of radioactive fragments from a template strand. They simulate the Sanger method of sequencing DNA, both visually and kinesthetically.

Learners simulate the Sanger method of DNA sequencing using color pop-beads as a representation of nucleotides and dideoxynucleotides. Students assemble DNA sequences and run their sequences through a "sequencing gel" and sketch what...

Students define the key terms that are the structure and function of DNA. In this genetics lesson students complete a lab activity in which they construct a model DNA structure.

Students discuss creative writing—what makes something creative writing? Each learner starts writing a story and after 15 minutes, they pass their story to another who adds to it. After another 15 minutes of writing, the story is passed...

Students are assigned to groups, and determine each member's role in the group. They will design an experiment to determine a way to produce the three primary and five secondary colors. Students discuss color and mood. They listen to a...

In this lipids worksheet, students review the different types of lipids and how lipids are used by the body. This worksheet has 3 drawings and 27 fill in the blank statements.

Students investigate how crime reporters do their jobs and how the news of crime gets reported.

In this proteins worksheet, students review how amino acids are sequenced to determine types of proteins. Students also review how proteins are used by the body. This worksheet has 2 drawing and 24 fill in the blank statements.

Fourth graders model the activity of an enzyme acting on a substrate and observe relationships. Have students place toothpicks in a pile. One member of the team should break as many toothpicks as possible, in 10 seconds.

Young scholars evaluate their current food choices. In this health science lesson, students test different drinks to rate the amount of Vitamin C content. They discuss results in class.

A detailed description of the different types of chemical reactions in organic and inorganic chemistry.

Created to teach students of the 21st century, SOPHIA is bringing the basic types of chemical reactions straight to your fingertips. Become the commander of your own learning experiences as you take part in this interactive lesson...

What is a chemical reaction? Learn about chemical equations, the four types of chemical reactions, and other fun facts.

This activity describes chemical synthesis in terms of building or breaking down molecules and discusses the value of chemical synthesis. Students will have a chance to play an interactive game that is analogous to the process of...

The guided inquiry activity enables students to identify the five basic types of reactions - synthesis or composition, decomposition, combustion, single replacement and double replacement. Students will also begin to predict the products...
