Electron configuration can be very confusing, this assignment helps students first think about electrons in various orbitals. After students are comfortable practicing the "map" of electron diagrams then that is transferred to the "address" of electron configurations. This practice assignment includes the s, p, and d orbitals only (no f).

Conversational and writing sentence stems to help students engage in academic conversations as well as analysis of experiments and activities. Some of the categories include: prediction/analysis questions, group discussion, error analysis, graph/data analysis, textual evidence, and DOK 1-3 questions.

Chapter Questions for all of the chapters in The Disappearing Spoon- Young Reader's Edition by Sam Keane ready to print and use!

Students will cut and paste the missing pieces of nuclear equations while identifying alpha, beta, and gamma decay.

Students identify which direction a system at equilibrium will shift (left or right) in response to a stress. Students also identify how the concentrations of reactants and products change as a result of that shift (increasing or decreasing concentration).

Students analyze the science behind four nuclear power comics. They identify if the comic is for or against nuclear power and write what scientific evidence can be used to support the author. Fun way to connect science to politics!

This product is perfect for introduction units in science! Topics are introduced in an easy to understand format including lots of practice! The topics included are: Types of data as qualitative and quantitative with 10 practice problemsIdentifying variables as independent, dependent, and control with 4 practice problemsCommunicating data with pie, bar, line graphs and trend linesIdentifying parts of a graph Analyzing graphs including drawing rise-run lines to extrapolate dataFinding the slope

This zip file contains a powerpoint, guided student notes page, template for the representative paper/lead cutout barriers, and two pictures of student work showing how the notes page looks when completed. Alpha, beta, and gamma radiation is discussed in these notes including the Greek letter, symbol, definition, and how each type of radiation changes an atom. At the top of the notes page (shown in the student work pictures) students draw each representative picture being stopped by three differ

POGIL- type activity in which students discover the cause of the atomic radius trend on the periodic table.

POGIL-type activity in which students discover the reason for the ionization energy trend on their own. This works well as a follow up to the atomic radius trend activity.

Here is a simple ten question problem set for Ohm's law calculating resistance, voltage, and current. There are solutions included! File format: Microsoft Word, PDF

Students build common covalent molecules such as water and carbon dioxide in order to gain experience to help them build addictive substances such as nicotine, ethanol, methamphetamine, and caffeine. Students can also read about how each addictive substance affects their body's function and their behavior.

Students practice writing and solving nuclear equations and explain how they found their answers.

Density lab in which students find the density of a cube and an irregular-shaped object. They also identify the item based on it's density from a given list. I used aluminum for both! It was easier and a great introduction to lab procedure, calculating from data, and using those calculations to justify an answer.
