Lesson Plan: Counting Atoms & Balancing Equations Mark as Favorite (36 Favorites)
In this lesson, students will learn how to count atoms and how to balance chemical equations using videos, simulations and games.
-
Subatomic Particles, Model of the Atom, Elements, Molecular Formula | Middle School
Project: What's It Made Of? Mark as Favorite (3 Favorites)
In this project each student will conduct research to discover what compounds, molecules, and elements make up a basic everyday object of their choice. The student will create a poster detailing what the object is made of, including a Bohr model. The student will also create a question about their object’s atomic structure for their peers as part of a culminating project gallery walk to observe, discuss, and learn about each poster.

Activity: Modeling Carbohydrates Mark as Favorite (4 Favorites)
In this activity, students will identify that organic compounds contain carbon and other elements such as hydrogen and oxygen. They will investigate the structure of different organic and inorganic compounds and model several molecules, including a carbohydrate molecule. They will use their models to help understand how larger molecules are broken down into smaller molecules.

Animation: Bonding Animation Mark as Favorite (36 Favorites)
"In this animation, students will visualize how different chemical bonds form. Examples of ionic, covalent, and polar covalent bonds are animated, and then students are given a sample of compounds to predict the bonding types. **This video has no audio**"
-
Molecular Formula | High School, Middle School
Lesson Plan: Valentine's Day Chemistry Mark as Favorite (3 Favorites)
In this lesson, students learn about the chemistry of love. They see chemical structures of compounds involved in the biological process of love and learn about some of the chemical changes associated with love.
-
Molecular Formula, Ionic Bonding, Covalent Bonding | High School, Middle School
Activity: Simulation Activity: Ionic and Covalent Bonding Mark as Favorite (53 Favorites)
In this simulation, students investigate both ionic and covalent bonding. Students will have the opportunity to interact with many possible combinations of atoms and will be tasked with determining the type of bond and the number of atom needed to form each. The simulation visually differentiates between the transferring of electrons when forming an ionic compound and the sharing of electrons when forming a covalent compound so that students can have a complete understanding of each. Finally, students will become familiar with the molecular formula, as well as the naming system for each type of bond and geometric shape, when applicable.
