1 – 6 of 6 Classroom Resources

• 

  Observations, Mixtures, Physical Properties, Molecular Structure | Elementary School, Middle School

  Demonstration: Investigating Hand Sanitizer and Soap Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)

  In this demonstration, students will consider the purpose of using both hand sanitizer and soap to wash their hands. They will observe a model of the interaction between hand sanitizer particles and virus particles, as well as between soap particles and virus particles to gain a better understanding of how soaps and sanitizers work.

• 

  Molecular Structure, Covalent Bonding, Molecular Formula, Review, Atoms | Elementary School, Middle School

  Activity: Atom Catcher Game Mark as Favorite (12 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will make several different molecules out of four types of atoms: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen in an online game. In order to be successful, the student must move a beaker on the screen to catch the correct type and number of atoms needed to form a particular molecule. Students can score points by making as many correct molecules as possible in a given amount of time.

  Molecular Structure, Molecular Geometry, History, Periodic Table, Molecular Structure | Elementary School, Middle School, High School

  Video: Phosphorous Video Mark as Favorite (10 Favorites)

  In this video, Sam Kean tells the story of how phosphorus was at the center of the race to discover the structure of DNA.

• 

  Conservation of Matter, Chemical Change, Photosynthesis, Balancing Equations, Reversible Reactions, Molecular Formula, Molecular Structure, Conservation of Mass, Interdisciplinary, Matter, Elements, Monomer | Elementary School

  Lesson Plan: Plant Chemistry Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)

  In this lesson, students will explore a simple, but key, biochemical reaction: photosynthesis.

• 

  Mixtures, Physical Properties, Molecular Structure, Mixtures | Elementary School, Middle School, High School

  Demonstration: Analyzing Mixtures Mark as Favorite (36 Favorites)

  In this demonstration, the teacher will create a sequence of mixtures in a single test tube. Water, oil, food coloring and soap will be used in this demonstration to introduce the concepts of heterogeneous and homogeneous solutions as well as the idea of miscibility. Students will also have the opportunity to analyze the properties, such as surface tension of each component used.

• 

  Chemical Bond, Molecular Structure, Atoms, Elements, Matter, Interdisciplinary, Naming Compounds | Elementary School

  Lesson Plan: Modeling Molecules Mark as Favorite (0 Favorites)

  In this lesson, students explore the structure of matter by designing, building, comparing, and evaluating models of a variety of simple molecules.
