Organic Molecules Detected on Distant Planet!
Here is a planet worksheet in which learners read about organic molecules detected through spectral lines of the planet Osiris. They calculate the mass, the volume and the densities of common ingredients for planets including Osiris and...
Curated OER
Ideal Gas Law
In this chemistry worksheet, students write two forms of the ideal gas law. Then they identify the size and units of the ideal gas law. Students also solve the equations for each ideal gas law.
Curated OER
States of Matter
Students study the vocabulary of the states of matter. In this states of matter vocabulary lesson plan, students investigate and study the meaning of the words solid, liquid, and gas. They experience demonstration lessons that give them...
Curated OER
What is Air?
Students investigate air by participating in a class experiment. In this matter measurement lesson, students identify air as a gas which consists of mass. Students utilize a windsock or balloon to measure oxygen and explore it's true...
Curated OER
"Heat Transfer and Ice Cream!"
Students analyze earth science by creating a frozen treat in class. In this heat transfer lesson, students discuss how matter is transformed from solid to liquid and liquid to gas when energy is removed from the equation. Students...
Curated OER
Traveling Sound
Students explore how sound waves move through liquids, solids and gases in a series of simple sound energy experiments. They describe how sound needs molecules to move and that changing the medium that it travels through changes the...
Curated OER
A Star Sheds a Comet Tail!
For this comet tails and stars worksheet, students read about the star Mira and the vast clouds of gases it emits. They use a photograph from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer satellite to solve 5 problems about the scale of the image, the...
Curated OER
Oxidation Reduction Reactions
In this chemistry worksheet, students find the outcomes necessary for the oxidation reduction reactions. The sheet includes background information.
Curated OER
A Day at the Beach
Help learners determine the rate of change for the temperature of sand. They will collect data on the temperature of wet and dry sand over time with a heat lamp overhead. Then make a scatter plot of the data and find a linear model to...
Curated OER
Water Cycle
Young scientists explore Earth elements by conducting an experiment. They define water vocabulary terms such as condensation and precipitation. In addition, they conduct a water experiment in which they build a terrarium, so they can...
Curated OER
Heat and Matter
Students explore liquids and solids by conducting in class experiments. In this matter activity, students define the properties of matter and how heat can change those properties. Students experiment with heating objects such as butter...
Curated OER
Unit Conversion in Chemistry
Hopefully by the time high schoolers are enrolled in your chemistry class, they are skilled with unit conversion. It does not hurt, however, to take an hour early in the school year to review this vital skill. This plan simply provides a...
Curated OER
Making Sense of Density
Students identify the concepts of density, mass, and volume that define the property of a substance. They also determine that the properties of materials, such as, density and volume, can be compared and measured by using rulers,...
Curated OER
How Do Airplanes Stay off the Ground?
Students use balloons and string to duplicate Bernoulli's Principle of wing shape and its affect on liftoff.
Curated OER
Planet Structure & Interior
Learners compare Jupiter and Earth. In this Earth and space studies lesson, students compare the composition of Earth and Jupiter and analyze how the composition affects the rate at which the planets spin.
