Baggie Chemistry Lab | Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions
Science, Chemistry, Grade 6, 7, 8, Activities, Projects
Baggie Chemistry Lab | Endothermic and Exothermic Reactions Students explore chemical reactions and their resulting energy changes with this engaging baggie chemistry lab . Learners follow procedures to combine household ingredients in plastic bags, closely observing the vivid reactions that result. Comparing endothermic and exothermic processes, they identify indicators like temperature change, bubbles, color shifts, and precipitates formed. This activity builds critical thinking as students collect qualitative data, draw conclusions about energy transfers occurring, and differentiate between physical changes and chemical reactions. Use this lab to reinforce chemistry concepts for middle schoolers or high schoolers in small groups or as an independent inquiry project.

Crime Scene Investigation Student Activity
Science, Chemistry, Grade 5, 6, 7, Activities, Projects
This resource is a Crime Scene Investigation Student Activity . Included in this lesson is a 9 day unit plan, instructions for all the experiments and activities, and packet for a crime scene investigation. You will receive a PDF download which includes the teacher notes/lessons plans as well as the student packets. This is a highly authentic and engaging unit- it's designed so that you are able to teach the scientific method using real world and inquiry based application. It's easy to follow, and amazingly fun. Sally Scarecrow has suffered a deadly hiccup attack at the hands of a teacher in the building. Student detectives spent the first day in detective school brushing up on content vocabulary, reviewing our suspect list, making predictions and observing the crime scene from a far. Over the next several days you will ask questions, compose experiments testing the cola from the crime scene for poison with litmus juice, dusting for finger prints, analyzing handwriting and more. We concluded our CSI by drafting a composite sketch of who we thought the culprit was, serving the culprit with an arrest warrant and reading her/him their Miranda Rights. Students will love solving the mystery of Sally Scarecrow! This is a great back to school or end of the year activity . There is not a better or more applicable way to teach students about the Scientific Method. The report portion of the packet can be used as the assessment component of the unit and includes a rubric. It covers everything!

Periodic Table: Element Baseball Cards Project
Science, Chemistry, Grade 5, 6, 7, 8, Activities, Projects
This is a great activity to help get students excited about the periodic table of elements! Students can work independently or in groups to research an element from the periodic table. On the front of the card, they will include images of the element, its name, and its symbol. On the back of the card, they will complete research to discover the element’s “statistics” including: Atomic number and atomic mass Electron configuration (including a diagram) Family Melting and boiling points History of discovery Uses and fun facts Then students can present their cards to the rest of the class so everyone learns about several different elements. Grades to Use With: This project is great for the middle grades (5-8) when the periodic table and elements are first introduced. It could also be used in a high school special education classroom. Standards: This project can help support the knowledge required for this standard. Once students understand the configuration of elements, they can use this knowledge to learn about simple molecules. NGSSMS-PS1-1 Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures. Emphasis is on developing models of molecules that vary in complexity. Examples of simple molecules could include ammonia and methanol. Examples of extended structures could include sodium chloride or diamonds. Examples of molecular-level models could include drawings, 3D ball and stick structures, or computer representations showing different molecules with different types of atoms. Assessment does not include valence electrons and bonding energy, discussing the ionic nature of subunits of complex structures, or a complete depiction of all individual atoms in a complex molecule or extended structure.

Heat Transfer Science Lab is an engaging hands-on science activity focused on endothermic and exothermic chemical reactions. Students in grades 6-8 follow procedures to combine various household substances and document detailed observations. Learners identify physical and chemical changes that produce or absorb heat energy. This project facilitates small groups collaborating on an experiment from start to finish - preparing materials, collecting qualitative and quantitative data, analyzing results, and drawing conclusions. Implement Heat Transfer Science Lab to reinforce chemistry concepts like phase changes, energy transfers, and chemical bonds. The detailed student lab sheet scaffolds the scientific process and develops critical thinking skills. Heat Transfer Science Lab allows educators to facilitate an inquiry-based lab that aligns to next generation science standards.
