1 – 10 of 10 Classroom Resources

• 

  Significant Figures, Measurements, SI Units | High School

  Activity: Investigating Significant Figures through Inquiry Mark as Favorite (2 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will develop an understanding of why significant figures are important in chemistry and learn how to determine the number of significant figures in a measurement.

• 

  Introduction, Lab Safety, Chemical Properties, Physical Properties, Chemical Change, Physical Change, History, Separating Mixtures, Measurements, SI Units, Significant Figures | High School

  Lesson Plan: Chemistry Basics Unit Plan Mark as Favorite (39 Favorites)

  The AACT High School Classroom Resource library and multimedia collection has everything you need to put together a unit plan for your classroom: lessons, activities, labs, projects, videos, simulations, and animations. We searched through our resource library and constructed a unit plan for introducing the basic chemistry concepts to students: Laboratory Safety, Equipment, and Reports, Periodic Table Basics, Physical and Chemical Properties and Changes, Endothermic and Exothermic Changes, and Classification of Matter. These topics are very important for your students to master before they dig into other chemistry concepts. This unit is designed to be used at beginning of the school year.

• 

  Conservation of Mass, Observations, History, Measurements, SI Units | Middle School, High School

  Activity: Lavoisier Video Questions Mark as Favorite (5 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will watch a video about Antoine Lavoisier, who many consider to be the father of modern chemistry. They will answer questions as they learn about oxygen, hydrogen, and the first proposal of the Law of the Conservation of Mass.

• 

  Temperature, History, Physical Properties, Measurements, SI Units, Accuracy | Elementary School, Middle School, High School

  Activity: Temperature Guys Video Questions Mark as Favorite (15 Favorites)

  In this activity, students will watch a video and answer questions about how both the thermometer and the concept of temperature evolved over time

• 

  Measurements, Accuracy, SI Units, Significant Figures | Middle School, High School

  Activity: Simulation Activity: Measuring Volume Mark as Favorite (34 Favorites)

  In this simulation, students will participate in a 10 question quiz. The quiz questions are each made of two parts, with the first part requiring the student to analyze an image of a graduated cylinder in order to report an accurate measurement. Students must use the correct number of digits based on the markings presented on the cylinder when reporting the measurement. In the second portion of the question the students will determine the uncertainty value of the graduated cylinder, again by analyzing its markings. The simulation is made up of several different sizes of graduated cylinders, each containing unique markings, so students will be challenged to analyze each individually.

  Measurements, Dimensional Analysis, SI Units, Percent Composition, Scientific Notation, Significant Figures, Accuracy, Density | High School

  Lesson Plan: Chemical Measurement Unit Plan Mark as Favorite (59 Favorites)

  The AACT High School Classroom Resource library has everything you need to put together a unit plan for your classroom: lessons, activities, labs, projects, videos, simulations, and animations. We constructed a unit plan for introducing concepts student need to collect and use chemical measurements: Percent Composition, Metric Units, Accuracy and Precision, Percent Error, Density, Scientific Notation, Significant Figures, and Unit Conversion. This unit is designed to be used at beginning of the school year and modified based on student math abilities.

• 

  Dimensional Analysis, SI Units | High School

  Lesson Plan: Dimensional Analysis and Unit Conversion Mark as Favorite (22 Favorites)

  In this lesson, students will learn how to use dimensional analysis for unit conversion problems. They will then practice the skill on several chemistry-based conversion problems.

• 

  Conservation of Mass, History, Observations, Measurements, SI Units | Elementary School, Middle School, High School

  Video: Antoine Lavoisier Video Mark as Favorite (9 Favorites)

  This video tells the story of Antoine Lavoisier who many consider to be the father or modern chemistry. Lavoisier discovered oxygen and hydrogen and first proposed the Law of Conservation of Mass.

• 

  Scientific Notation, Dimensional Analysis, SI Units | High School

  Lesson Plan: Using Scientific Notation in Chemistry Mark as Favorite (22 Favorites)

  In this lesson, students will solve a variety of real-world problems using scientific notation. Students will listen to a convoluted radio conversation about coffee which will relate to a math-based problem that this lesson is developed around. Students will begin to recognize the benefits of using scientific notation in their calculations.

• 

  Measurements, SI Units | High School

  Activity: Mysteriously Melodramatic & Maniacal Metric Measurements Mark as Favorite (17 Favorites)

  In this activity, students predict the measurements of objects using metric units. They then take the actual measurements and compare them to their predictions.
