Activity Three Teacher Page: Collisions

Learning about the mole using rice is pretty nice! Help your chemistry scholars visualize the concept of a mole of substance with an easy-to-perform lab. Partnered pupils find the mass of a single grain of rice and relate this...

Students watch demonstrations of forces and Newton's Three Laws. In this forces instructional activity, students watch four demonstrations and complete the associated worksheets associated with Newton's Laws. There is a PowerPoint that...

How do the oceans and Great Lakes influence weather and climate? Part three of a seven-part series about salt and freshwater examines the impact large bodies of water have on the skies above us. Included in the instructional activity is...

General chemistry class members engage in a mini-unit on mole conversions. Through nine lab activites with varying degrees of difficulty, they practice measuring mass and volume, molar calculations, and stoichiometry. Terrific teacher...

How important is momentum? Pupils investigate and apply the definition of momentum as they conduct analyses during a series of one-dimensional collisions. They infer the relative masses of two objects by carefully staging and predicting...

Teach the three components of the collision theory through a video lesson. The narrator explains what it takes for a reaction to occur. A perfect combination of collisions, energy, and orientation and a reaction is underway.

Active transport uses energy in the form of ATP. The video explains three types of active transport. It begins with membrane pumps before discussing endocytosis and exocytosis.

Get in touch with your sense of smell! The author of the video provides three simple steps to help you get the best of the smells around you: get close to it, inhale a few sniffs, and notice smells around you.

A reading of Whale Journey, a fact-filled picture book by Vivian French, launches a study of the life cycle and migration of three generations of gray whales. The interdisciplinary lesson offers opportunities extensions into all subject...

Students identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.
