PhEt Law of Conservation of Energy Skate park BASIC webquest
This is a great webquest activity for introducing the law of conservation of energy.Phet.edu is a great source of simulations for all fields of math and science. For this sim you will go to Energy Skate Park BASIC.You should spend some time playing around with the site before using it. You must also make sure your school's firewall will allow you to use HTML5 or Java applets. PHET.EDU MAY NOT WORK ON iPad!!! Please check with your IT department or run Phet.edu BEFORE purchasing this file!!! You

Skittle Radiometric Decay Half-life Lab
Did you know you can use Skittles candy to demonstrate absolute dating and radiometric decay! Buy a 1-4 lb bag at your local bulk warehouse store for savings. This lab is a great way to show how isotopes decay by shaking a plate full of random skittles. Students use Skittles to observe "Isotopes" decay over each half life. At the end of the lab (and only IF they have done all their work) they can enjoy their "daughter products". Skittles were used because they are durable, hypoallergenic, and th

Circulatory System & Blood Typing Lab (no blood required!)
If you are teaching your students about the circulatory system, this is a great unit for you!This blood type lab is safe to use in all schools, because it uses colored water instead of blood. This way you do not have to deal with blood and lances like traditional medical lessons. You can easily make plenty of colored water to test, and the setup is easy to do. I recommend you have a beach towel ready to clean up any spills. Make sure students wipe down their desk after the lab. This also includ

Walking Dead Water Filter Lab
With shows like "The Walking Dead" and others, students are interested in how to survive the Zombie Apocalypse. One thing they will need is an improvised water filter to clean dirty water. This type of water filter was seen in a episode of "The Walking Dead". It's also featured in survival shows. You will need plastic water bottles, sand, gravel, coffee filters, marbles, and any other medium you think can be used to filter water. I do NOT recommend using charcoal or ash, because when wet they ar

Earthquake Building Lab w Flat Rate Boxes
This lab uses FREE small USPS flat rate boxes to model buildings in a earthquake zone. You can pick them up for FREE from your local post office, or have them delivered in bulk to your school. Challenge your students to produce buildings that would withstand more earthquake forces. You can also have your students use TinkerCAD to model their home. Your students then modify their building to withstand a greater magnitude earthquake. You can expand this into a building project like the toothpick b

Balancing Chemical Equations Manipulative Lab
If you are starting your students on chemistry, this is a great activity to teach balancing equations. It shows how matter is conserved, and is balanced on both sides of the equation. This can be done with poker chips, math manipulative, or other tools you have in house. I used some squares of construction paper for this. This lab demonstrates the Law of Conservation of Mass. The amount of atoms (math tiles or construction paper) that you start with equals the amount that you end with. You can a

Elenco Snap Circuit Semester Series
One year I was given the challenge of using snap circuits to teach science. This was designed for home school students that attend a weekly options support program. This expands upon the instructions in the original kit, and also provides web quest through PhEt that expand upon ideas not covered. This lab is aligned to the master book that comes with the kits. This matches the current SC-500R kit offered by Elenco, however I was using an older kit version. Some project numbers may not match. Ple
