This lab is a two part investigation on separating a solid from a liquid where students are asked to develop their own investigable question and carry out the experiment on day two.
This activity is a hands-on activity where students learn about polymers and the science of plastics, while making shrinky dinks.
In this module we will be exploring the idea of Significant Figures. At the end of the module you should be able to...1. Determine the number of significant figures in a given number. 2. Determine the number of significant figures your answer should have after basic math functions. (Add, subtract, multiple, and divide) Corresponding OpenStax Textbook Section 1.5Significant Figures
This guided inquiry lesson allows students to make explore with materials and draw conclusions if they are a solid or liquid.
This activity is a classroom activity where the students move through learning stations to explore the properties of solids and liquids.
This activity is an investigation where students explore the properties of color and light, using mixtures of common everyday materials.
This activity is used to introduce the different properties of states of matter, by testing an unknown substance with household materials to determine which state of matter most closely resembles the material. It also can invole data collection, reasoning, grph making, and presentation of findings.
This activity is a lab investigation where students observe the four states of matter. At the end of the investigation students should be able to know that the differences among the physical states depend on the distance between the atoms or molecules and on the rate of movement of the atoms or molecules. And, that pressure and temperature control these two factors.
This activity is a lab where students gather data using glass pipettes to understand the concept of precision and data analysis.
This is a classroom activity in which students explore solids, liquids, and gases, and their properties. This provides hands on experience for all students.
This activity investigates water when it freezes and how other solid items sink or float in water.
This activity is an in-class experiment where students predict, observe, and summarize what will happen when ice melts in a cup of water.
Test the pH of things like coffee, spit, and soap to determine whether each is acidic, basic, or neutral. Visualize the relative number of hydroxide ions and hydronium ions in solution. Switch between logarithmic and linear scales. Investigate whether changing the volume or diluting with water affects the pH. Or you can design your own liquid!
