Young scholars produce copper metal by electrolysis. In this REDOX lesson plan, students use a copper (II) chloride solution and a 9 volt battery to produce copper metal through an electrolysis reaction. Young scholars make observations...

In this thermodynamics worksheet, students fill in the blanks with terms related to specific heat, calorimetry, phase changes, enthalpy, entropy and free energy.

In this absolute zero worksheet, students experiment with a closed-end syringe and a ice bath and boiling water. They record volumes of gases in the syringe as well as temperatures of the water and they plot their experimental data. They...

In this gas lab, students use a pressurized soda bottle with a closed end syringe to simulate Boyle's Law. They alter the volume and watch the effects on the pressure of the gas. They plot their data and answer eight post lab questions.

In this compounds instructional activity, students determine the empirical formulas and percent compositions of compounds given chemical formulas, mass of elements in compounds and percentages of elements in compounds.

In this gas worksheet, learners use the ideal gas law to find volumes of gases, pressure of gases, moles of gases, mass of gases and molecules of gases. They find unknowns at standard temperature and pressure and they calculate the...

For this chemical reactions worksheet, students are given fourteen chemical reactions that they must write using chemical formulas for the reactants and products. They balance each equation by placing the proper coefficients in front of...

In this kinetic theory worksheet, students are given fifteen questions about gases and their kinetic energy, how temperature effects kinetic energy, and the results of changing conditions of gases on the kinetic energy. They convert from...

In this gases worksheet, students answer six questions related to the kinetic molecular theory of gases. They summarize the kinetic theory and they draw diagrams to illustrate different components of the theory.

For this gas worksheet, learners solve eight problems using the combined gas law to find either pressure, volume or temperature of a gas.

In this chemistry review worksheet, learners solve a variety of problems including balancing equations, solving for unknowns using dimensional analysis, finding percent yields, limiting reactants and empirical formulas.

In this gases worksheet, learners use the concepts of Graham's Law of diffusion to determine the velocity of gases and molecules. They describe kinetic energy and how it relates to the mass and velocity of objects.

In this nomenclature worksheet, students are given twenty-eight compounds to write the formulas for and they are given twenty eight formulas to name. The compounds include covalent compounds, ionic compounds and acids.

B.B. King and Muddy Waters are two of the most famous blues performers of all time. In this music instructional activity, middle schoolers study the early careers and lasting musical contributions of both artists, each of whom carried...

To gain a better understanding of Hispanic heritage and culture, as well as to build informational comprehension skill, learners explore facets of Hispanic American History. They engage in a class discussion, research three facts, and...

U.S. immigration is the focus of a unit on social justice. Over the course of a school year, young historians read a variety of texts to learn about four waves of immigration that have occurred over time in the U.S. An emphasis on...

“Compared to war all other forms of human endeavor shrink to insignificance.” “War is not healthy for children and other living things.” These two views of war, embodied in George Patton’s statement and Lorraine Schneider‘s famous 1966...

Why would Robert E. Lee order Pickett's Charge, an action that changed the course of the Civil War? Geographer and historian Anne Knowles uses digital technology to explain what she thinks is the missing piece in trying to understand...

Young historians closely examine the words of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address with this primary source analysis worksheet.

Learning how to make accurate inferences by putting together facts found in multiple sources is one of those skills all learners must develop, but one that can be a challenge to teach. This resource is a must-have for your curriculum...

What were the conditions that led to the American Revolution? What are the conditions that lead to revolution in other times and places? Class members examine primary source materials and use evidence drawn from these documents to craft...

Students nominate a woman to appear on a postage stamp. They explore the contributions of American women. Explain to students that the U.S. Postal Service issues 25 to 40 new commemorative stamps each year.

Have your class explore active reading strategies! In this guided reading lesson, learners make personal connections to characters having a bad day as a prior knowledge activation discussion. After reading Gettin' Through Thursday, class...
