Density & Percent Error Quick Labs
Enjoy using these 2 quick labs to practice measurement skills, density calculations, and percent error any time throughout the year. In the density lab, students are asked to determine the density of aluminum by measuring the dimensions and mass of sheets of aluminum foil. In the index card lab, students calculate the area and perimeter of an index card, and determine their percent error based on the provided dimensions. Color and B&W versions included.These are considered quick labs becau

FREEBIE: Back to Square 1-4-5 (Scientific Knowledge and a Double Square Puzzle)
Start the Science class with one (1) square. It's simple, because one square is unambiguous. But then challenge students to take four (4) polygons and arrange them together to make a square shape. A-ha! That's trickier. Like Science, there can be many hypothesis on how they fit together, but the best solution solves the puzzle. If it doesn't work, it's back to square one. This lab activity gets students/student teams to think about the nature of science, and also, to show the importance of being

Percent of Error Lab!
Students have a BLAST calculating their percent of error in their estimations for how many words per minute they can type, how far they can jump, how many shots they make in the hoop, and more! You can also use this to calculate percent of change!

Experimental vs Theoretical Probability
Have your students roll dice and look at the data. Discuss the theoretical probability of rolling a 1 vs experimental probability. What happens as the same size increase? Students work in groups of 2 or 3 and record their data. You can have everyone tell you their data and type it in, or you can have the students type their data into the shared google sheet. As they type the stats will update live and they have a graph showing them each roll. *Note: If you don't have dice you can use an online

Performing Lasik Surgery using Significant Figures - Using Sig Figs and % Error
A fun lab that requires your students to measure using significant figures using the real world connection of Lasik surgery. In this lab, students get to perform Lasik surgery on a gummy eyeball and can easily draw connections of using significant figures and percent error in eye surgery.

Combustion Analysis Chemistry Lab
Combustion Analysis (CA) is a challenging subtopic in chemistry. One of the reasons why is because CA blends math and chemical concepts together and students must be very comfortable with both in order to successfully solve these problems. Combustion Analysis also involves finding and utilizing Percent Composition and Empirical Formulas. This laboratory breaks down the challenge of CA to a more manageable level for students by presenting a clever Combustion Analysis Flowchart for students to us

Perfect Purple Paint Group Task
In this engaging color-mixing activity, students collaborate in heterogeneous groups to recreate the perfect purple paint discovered for a special room project. Originating from an 8 oz (1 cup) container, the challenge is to scale up the paint for larger 16 oz (2 cups) and 32 oz (4 cups) containers. Using red and blue food coloring, students explore ratios to achieve the identical shade, documenting their findings on a graph. The hands-on experiment encourages teamwork, critical thinking, and pr
