Curated OER
Revised “Understanding Nutrition” Activity
Students evaluate their current food choices. In this health science lesson, students test different drinks to rate the amount of Vitamin C content. They discuss results in class.
Curated OER
Physical and Chemical Changes
Students differentiate physical and chemical changes. In this chemistry lesson, students identify five indicators that a chemical change took place. They complete a reflection journal at the end of the activity.
Curated OER
Losing An Island
Students examine carbon dioxide and determine the impact of greenhouse gases on the earths spheres. In this pollution lesson students complete a lab activity to see the impact of gases on the environment,
