Chemical Reaction Rates
Learners observe demonstrations to show factors that affect rates of chemical reactions. In this rates of chemical reactions lesson, students investigate how catalysts, reactant concentrations, temperature and surface area affect the...
Curated OER
Developing Models
Students understand the concept of a scientific model and how it relates to climate change. In this obsesrvation and gathering data lesson students design a trial and error model using PowerPoint.
Curated OER
Geologic Sequestration
Learners investigate how geologic sequestration reduces carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere. For this earth science lesson, students simulate oil mining in the lab. They write down their observations and complete the lab...

Oceanic Absorption- Oceanic Sequestration
Young scholars examine the different techniques that may be used to reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. In this ocean pollution lesson plan students divide into groups and complete a lab to see how the ocean holds carbon dioxide.
Curated OER
Acid Neutralization Lab
Young scholars discuss and design a lab to measure pH of limestone, pyrite, limestone-pyrite mixtures and their control. They have their labs approved by the instructor before they begin. Students preform the lab and explore the...
Curated OER
Off Base
Students explain the Chatelier's Principle. In this pH lesson, students identify factors that resist changes in pH of the ocean and why the ocean is becoming more acidic.
Curated OER
Start at the Very Beginning
Students explore ocean ecosystems. In this cross curriculum art and oceans lesson plan, students create a collage featuring three-finger algae using sand paper, tissue paper, and construction paper.
Curated OER
Pop Rocket - Trash to Treasure
First off, Newton's laws of motion aren't often taught at 2nd grade, so this lesson may be more appropriate for upper elementary learners. It begins with a discussion and demonstration of the laws of motion, and then has individuals...
