A set of 24 Physics Task Cards for Energy, Work and Power. Problems range from basic calculations and descriptions to more challenging word problems and two-step calculations. Answer Key (included) has been triple-checked and allow for teachers to use gravity = 9.8, 9.81 or 10 m/s^2 without students messing up their answer choices. These problems would be appropriate for High School Level (or advanced Middle School) students, either as a summative assessment at the end of an Energy unit, or t

Students will be given two Potential Energy Diagrams -- one Endothermic, one Exothermic. They will have to read the graph and determine if the graph is showing an endothermic or exothermic reaction, justify why it is so, then calculate the heat of reaction (delta H), activation energy (Ea), reverse activation energy, answer four conceptual multiple choice questions, and then determine if 9 real-life scenarios demonstrate exothermic or endothermic reactions. This worksheet is suitable for the co

UPDATED on April 18th, 2015 in response to complaints that file was not printing correctly. This file is compatible for Adobe Reader 6 and later, and is split into separate pages to prevent printer buffer overload. This is a set of 32 high-resolution and visually appealing Thermochemistry Task Cards. They cover the following concepts: Endothermic and Exothermic Energy Diagrams Entropy and Enthalpy Phase Change Diagrams Heat of Formation Calorimetry (with Specific Heat Problems) Review of found

Test student understanding about the characteristics of Transverse versus Longitudinal Waves using this Venn Diagram. Great as a homework assignment, review at the end of a unit, or an extra challenge for your GT kids. I've enclosed two versions -- one with a bank of 24 characteristics to help prompt your students and get them thinking, and one without prompts for a more open-ended individual/small-group assignment. Enjoy this product and let me know how it worked for you!

PLEASE READ: File has been REVISED on 4/18/15 in response to a complaint about file being unprintable. File has been broken down into individual pages and has been made compatible to programs as old as Adobe Reader 6. This is a set of 24 Task Cards covering the concepts of the Gas Laws. The cards cover Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, Avogadro's Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, Ideal Gas Law, and the Kinetic Theory of Gases. Students will perform conversions, computations, answer multiple choice and answe

These "Exit Tickets" are a great way to assess student learning at the beginning or end of class to review major concepts. These will cover the first couple of weeks of Physics, covering topics such as converting SI units, reviewing Accuracy vs. Precision, and covering Distance, Displacement, and Resultants in the form of math problems, graphing, and conceptual short-answer questions. Each page has 2-3 duplicates of the question, helping you save paper! These are appropriate for high schoo

The objective of this folding graphic organizer is to help students decipher the characteristics of Alpha, Beta and Gamma Decay as they delve into Nuclear Chemistry. Students will identify types of Nuclear Decay Reactions and Characteristics of the Decay Processes, including energy emissions, parent-daughter nuclei comparisons, types of particles involved, etc. This activity would be appropriate for homework, an end-of-topic activity, or even a quick assessment. There are two versions of thi

This is a paper-saving (2 per page) warmup that can also make a great short quiz to assess your students' knowledge of wavelength vs. frequency, frequency vs. pitch, amplitude and its relationship to energy, and constructive/destructive interference. This assignment would be appropriate for Middle School General/Physical Science, High School Physics or a High School Physics/Chemistry course. Students will compare the characteristics of "Wave A" to "Wave B" over the course of its travel in 1 s
