Third graders experiment with common household liquids and solids. In this chemical reaction instructional activity, 3rd graders discuss phase changes and experiment to find other ways to create gases. They use water, vinegar, lemon...

Students create videos about an element on the periodic table. In this element lesson, students work with partners to create a 1-2 minute video giving interesting information about their element. They include the name, symbol, atomic...

Students apply the ideal gas law and Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure to develop an experiment which determine the molar mass of butane from disposable lighters. In small groups, they develop a procedure and have it approved before...

First graders investigate the changing states of water.

Fifth graders, in groups, research a specified topic of Canadian history. They dramatize their findings, become familiar with many filming techniques and film themselves in a historical skit for presentation to the class.

Sixth graders, in groups, observe the difference between physical and chemical changes and create a collage of pictures to show the difference.

Viewers of this slide show learn that pesticides used on food crops can be harmful, but that there are certain allowable levels that should not be hazardous. They find out the rigorous process of inspection that meat must go through...

Students explain that particle movement changes as a substance changes from one phase to another phase.

Young scholars examine specific characteristics of liquids through a hands-on lab activity. An experiment with teacher prepared viscosity tubes is conducted in which liquid identities are predicted based on data. A hypothesis is written...

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

In this solubility and intermolecular force worksheet, high schoolers are given 26 clues about forces between molecules such as hydrogen bonds and London forces and about solubility of solutions.

In this solutions activity, students soak a pipe cleaner in hot water and a supersaturated solution of 20 Mule Team Borax. Kids leave their pipe cleaner in the solution for 30 minutes and then observe. They put it back in over night and...

In this vapor pressure worksheet, students use a given graph of the vapor pressure of four liquids to answer eleven questions. They compare and find boiling points and vapor pressures of propanone, ethanol, water, and ethanoic acid.

Students discuss a video about drug and alcohol abuse and their connection to risk-taking. They answer questions on a risk factor sheet about the use of tobacco, drugs, and alcohol. They discuss long and short term goals and how not...

Students discuss skyscrapers and listen as the teacher introduces the project. They use the Internet to perform research on one skyscraper. Students use information they gather to create a brochure of their building . They create an...
