How stovetop and electric kettles heat water (burner heat vs. a heating element; some shut off automatically). Why boiling water “swirls” (convection: warmer, less dense water rises while cooler water sinks). Key science facts connected to boiling (about 212°F at sea level; lower boiling temperature on high mountains). Safe habits around hot water and steam (steam can sting, spilled hot water can scald, and careful pouring/spout direction helps). Learning Goals Students will identify the main purpose of a kettle using details from the passage. Students will describe how a stovetop kettle and an electric kettle heat water, based on the text. Students will explain convection in boiling water using the passage’s description of rising and sinking water. Students will state what the text says about boiling temperature at sea level and on high mountains. Students will list safety rules mentioned in the passage for handling steam and hot water. Key Vocabulary From the Text vessel — a container that holds something. cauldron — a large pot. convection — heat moving as warm water rises and cool sinks. dense — packed tightly; not light. scald — burn skin with very hot liquid.

Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially + PDF Version
Science, STEM, Chemistry, Physics, Life Sciences, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Technology, Basic Science, Biology, P.E. & Health, Homeschool Templates, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Teacher Tools, Experiments, Activities, Labs, Worksheets & Printables, Escape Room, Games, Presentations, Quizzes and Tests, Quizzes
Interactive Chemistry Quiz: GHS Symbols – Genially (+ PDF Version) Bring lab safety to life with this interactive quiz on the GHS (Globally Harmonized System) hazard symbols – perfect for middle and high school chemistry lessons. Whether you're starting the unit or wrapping up a safety review, this quiz adds variety, visual appeal, and a bit of fun to your lesson plan. You’ll get two versions of the quiz: – A PDF version that can be used digitally or printed (but it works not well) – A Genially link that leads to an animated, interactive version (includes sound – which can be muted) Both versions test students on the meanings of the various GHS symbols – from corrosive substances to environmental hazards. The quiz includes original clipart and my own glitter-animated GHS symbols to make the content more visually appealing without distracting from the important safety message. I usually use the Genially quiz for individual work in the computer lab or on tablets, so each student can go at their own pace. But it also works well as a station activity , a class-wide quiz , or even as homework , depending on your classroom setup. At the end of the PDF, you’ll find: A QR code to scan directly to the Genially A clickable link for browser access An iframe embed code , if you want to use it on your (non-commercial) learning platform Attention: The interactive PDF does not contain the full scope of the material. The quiz works. Unfortunately, the additional tasks do not. Using Genially is therefore recommended and much more motivating for the pupils. For the interactive quiz you need an internet connection and a terminal device. The quiz can be carried out with the whole class or as partner or individual work. I prefer individual work at each student's own pace. To get to the Genially link, either scan the QR code at the end of the document or click on the link button available there. You can also copy the iframe code and embed the Genially on a learning platform or other... The Genially can be used either at the beginning of the topic or as a backup. It is also worth using as a station in station work. The interactive version includes motivating sound effects , a self-paced structure , and a clear, age-appropriate design for grades 7–10. 📌 Important note : The Genially quiz is protected by copyright. It’s for your own classroom use only . Please don’t share the link or embed it outside a private, secure learning environment. Sharing with colleagues, online platforms, or social media is not permitted. I hope your students enjoy reviewing GHS symbols as much as mine do! – Heike from @Lernfitness Did You Know?
