Description
This NGSS for middle school bundle is newly updated as a digital PDFs for home or distance learning and includes all 5 of my atoms, elements, compounds, and molecules lessons aligned to MS-PS1-1 and TEKS 6.5A. These activities provide instruction for up to two weeks at a discounted price and include fun and engaging activities such as Tricky Flash Cards and the Junk Compound Project! You will have access to over 37 pages of resources that are sure to engage and challenge your students thinking about elements, molecules, and compounds.
If using as a distance learning resource, simply print and assign worksheets or attach to Google Classroom (or whatever platform you use!) Check out the other home/distance learning products in my store! Home and Distance Learning Resources
I have included my best selling NGSS Unit Template (EDITABLE) as a bonus resource for FREE!!!
This set of resources is aligned to the following standards:
NGSS Performance Expectation MS-PS1-1 Develop models to describe the atomic composition of simple molecules and extended structures
Texas TEKS 6.5A Know that an element is a pure substance represented by a chemical symbol and that a compound is a pure substance represented by a chemical formula
Students will:
- learn what elements are and their connection to atoms, the symbols/ abbreviations of 20 by making “Tricky Flash Cards”, and research basic facts about each in a Scavenger Hunt
- learn the difference between molecules and compounds, what they are, how to count the atoms, how to read and write chemical formulas, and how to draw model molecules
- use teacher's key to assemble and draw molecules out of nuts, bolts, and washers, research other molecules (or use teacher provided list) to create their own “system” for assembling molecules, create 3 new systems to build and draw molecules and relate molecules to mixtures (NOTE: THIS ACTIVITY MAY BE TOO DIFFICULT FOR DISTANCE LEARNING)
- find, research, and create simple molecules out of junk from home
- are challenged and assessed on all MS-PS1-1 through assessment tasks and questions which can be used on pre-assessments, tests, quizzes, or for check-ins!
