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

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
