Spice up your classroom chemistry lessons and get your whole unit planned in minutes with these activities and resources. These engaging and hands-on lessons were designed to minimize prep time and they are a hit with the students!

Topics include:

• properties of matter including states of matter: solids, liquids and gases
• acids and bases: ways to measure them.
• physical and chemical changes.
• reversible and irreversible changes.
• mixtures (solutions, suspensions, and emulsions; heterogenous and homogenous mixtures
• separation techniques (evaporation, filtering, etc.)
• crystals.
• experiments to challenge thinking and practice the scientific method while learning chemistry concepts.
• digital versions of all the student pages. They have loose text that can be read by assistive technology.
• bonus unit plan.

Support materials included are:

• ten reading passages to help provide background knowledge for each topic (paper and digital versions are included)
• review game for the whole unit

Please see the preview to see the activities.

Dear Alberta Teacher,
