Intro To Chemistry: The Dihydrogen Monoxide Assignment
Prank your students with this sensationalized assignment about a "dangerous substance." Students read about the substance, complete a worksheet about its properties and then convince family members to support a ban on the substance. What is the substance? H2O!
Assignment comes with a school letterhead notice to send home with students, urging them that the science department needs them to learn about a chemical substance.
Great way to start off the year, or a unit. Parents love it!

Black History Periodic Table
All too often, we come face-to-face with reality behind the importance of knowing our history - or the lack thereof. Outside of the popular names mentioned in our textbooks or highlighted on our television screens, many of the students we service aren't familiar with those that paved the way for us today. With that being said, I decided to take my spin on one of Chemistry's beloved treasures and present "The Periodic Table of Black History" which has been set up in the hallway outside of my room

Ice cream phase and temperature change lab
This is the student sheet I use to have students make ice cream in a bag. We do this at the end of our energy unit which discusses energy involved in phase and temperature changes. We also record these changes with temperature vs time graphs, heat calculations, and energy bar charts/ "LOL charts" (ASU modeling methods). This lab is fun can can be done in gallon sized bags, but I have found saving large plastic or metal containers ( dishwasher pod or coffee cans) work better.
