This is a tiered assignment on chemical reactions allowing students to choose what type of project they would like to complete for the chapter. All assignments require research, but the students can choose how to show their knowledge (song, video,
This activity guides students through the various types of muscle contractions and includes the topics of graded response, wave summation, muscle twitch, unfused tetanus, and fused tetanus. The students use the graphs to answer questions about the
This is a POGIL activity for teaching isotopes. Students can work through activity at their own pace. Must have prior knowledge about the structure of the atom.
This activity will guide the students through the structures within and actions that occur at the neuromuscular junction. Students will use the figures to answer questions about what structures are present and how those structures interact with
This is an activity that requires students to work through 4 empirical formula calculations and compare their results with a set of formulas to determine the unknown identities. These calculations are simple enough for an introductory level
This activity directs students through a separation via chromatography. It confirms the idea that mixtures can be separated through physical means whereas compounds must use chemical reactions to separate them. This activity includes the teacher
This project is great for teaching unit conversions and dimensional analysis. Students are required to measure a specified area and perform calculations to determine how much paint flooring will be needed. The students will also calculate the
This assignment requires students to research global warming and choose a side of the argument. They write an essay and use MLA formatting throughout. Rubric for grading included. Great for teaching Environmental Chemistry topics.
This project is great for anatomy students and allows students to show their understanding of the skeleton. The students work in groups to create a life sized skeleton. There are certain bones that are required for the skeleton to be complete.
This is a handout that requires students to convert common measurements into other units. Students are required to use dimensional analysis and conversion factors. This activity uses measurements the students are familiar with such as a can of
This Google Slide activity can be used to assess student knowledge of isotopes and how they differ from one another. Students will drag the correct number of blue protons and green neutrons into the nucleus of the atom to show the isotope that is
This is a wonderful experiment to teach students about the density of pennies from before and after 1982. The students will learn why the density of pennies is different depending on the year. They will also gain mastery of the density equation
This activity requires students to complete the net ionic equations of reactions in order to fill in the answers of the crossword puzzle. The questions ask students to identify spectator ions or products of reactions.
This Google slide activity allows students to build the energy levels of atoms to gain a better understanding of the structure of the atom. This activity can begin a unit on atomic structure and provides the visual that some students need to
This activity allows students to show their knowledge of the elements that make up various substances based on their chemical formula. This begins the concept of balancing equations with the concept of accounting for atoms in molecules. After this
In this Google Slides activity, students will show their mastery of formation of cations and anions by adding or removing electrons from an atom. The energy levels and nucleus are the background image on the slide so that students can simply copy
This is a project that allows students to show their understanding of cell division through the creation of books. This project works great for students who are more artistic.
This is a writing assignment that requires students to research a current event in chemistry and write about that event. It includes the format expected as well as a rubric for grading.
