    Description

    Engage students with the science of glow sticks. All grade levels teach the same concept but differentiate by age and abilities. This enables a teacher to teach the same concept at the same time. Great for the science lab teacher and homeschool family.

    By purchasing this bundle, you are SAVING 20% off each individual resource.

    Digital and Distance Learning Approved. This experiment uses simple supplies and can work well for a distance learning or digital activity. The teacher can perform the experiment during a virtual class, and students can have the choice to perform it with you. In the classroom, students can easily perform it at their own pace. The files are a PDFs but come with a pre-created Easel by TpT overlay. We added text boxes and tips for completing it online. Click "Open in Easel" on each product page to get started. They can be added to your Google Classroom as an assignment. Students can also print and complete it. A science lab teacher can also assign all the grade levels, which allows families to conduct the experiment together. If you don't have Google Classroom, you can send the overlay as a link to Google accounts. If that is not possible, use the PDF in a program like Kami extension to create an online version with text boxes. We already did it for you in Easel. If creating at-home kits, just add a couple of glow sticks. How Fun!


    Students will investigate the speed of a chemical reaction using glow sticks. Students will learn about chemiluminescence. All journals correlate to the *Next Generation Science Standards.

    Students will follow the scientific method to answer the question:

    Does the temperature affect the brightness of a glow stick?

    Easy-to-follow masters, simple materials, and a great way to get kids excited about science. Use it for Halloween or any time of year.

    Supplies: Glow Sticks, Water, Room Temperature Water, Ice, Hot Water, Tall Glass or Mason Jar, Paper towel Roll, Clock or Stopwatch, Paper Towels

    By the end of the investigation, students will have

    • written a hypothesis and supported or unsupported it.
    • recorded detailed observations.
    • ranked data.
    • created a bar graph.
    • summarized their data.
    • explained that heat speeds up chemical reactions.

    Included in the Bundle

    Teachers will love its' ease of use, and students will have a memorable experience. A complete teacher guide is included. This experiment can also be done for distance learning as a demo during a virtual class. Students can gather supplies if they want.

    Great for science class, science camps, Halloween, homeschool, clubs, and science fairs. Many use it as a class science fair project.

    Please see each individual product for more detailed information.

    NGSS5-PS1-3
    Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties. Examples of materials to be identified could include baking soda and other powders, metals, minerals, and liquids. Examples of properties could include color, hardness, reflectivity, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, response to magnetic forces, and solubility; density is not intended as an identifiable property. Assessment does not include density or distinguishing mass and weight.
    NGSS5-PS1-4
    Conduct an investigation to determine whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances.
    NGSS2-PS1-4
    Construct an argument with evidence that some changes caused by heating or cooling can be reversed and some cannot. Examples of reversible changes could include materials such as water and butter at different temperatures. Examples of irreversible changes could include cooking an egg, freezing a plant leaf, and heating paper.
    NGSS4-PS3-3
    Ask questions and predict outcomes about the changes in energy that occur when objects collide. Emphasis is on the change in the energy due to the change in speed, not on the forces, as objects interact. Assessment does not include quantitative measurements of energy.
    NGSS2-PS1-1
    Plan and conduct an investigation to describe and classify different kinds of materials by their observable properties. Observations could include color, texture, hardness, and flexibility. Patterns could include the similar properties that different materials share.
