High School Chemistry Element Super Hero (or Villain!) Project
In this fun project, secondary (can be modified for middle school easily) Chemistry students work to research elements of their choice and present their learning in a creative story and poster project. The project is designed for students to work with a partner, but can easily be modified for individual or group learning. Additionally, the project is intended to be completed in a school week (five class days), but could be shortened, given over a long weekend or vacation or as optional extra c
NGSS Electromagnetic Spectrum Research Project
This project was created for my students to use via distance learning during school closure for the Covid-19 virus. I have now used it both virtually and in person, and find it's an engaging way to let students dig more deeply into the electromagnetic spectrum.This is a one to two week long research project appropriate for a Chemistry or Physics class studying the electromagnetic spectrum.Students will research a section of the EM spectrum of their choosing, put together a presentation of their

NGSS Nuclear Energy Research Project
This is written as a 4 week long research project appropriate for a Chemistry or Physics class studying nuclear power, but the timeframe can be shortened to fit your needs. It has been broken up into tasks that need to be submitted weekly to help the teacher keep track of student progress and attendance throughout the project. Students will research many aspects of nuclear energy including radioactivity, isotopes, history of some of the major players, nuclear power plants, nuclear incidents, and

"Pick Your Poison" Toxicology Research Project (Forensic Science, Chemistry)
This is a great summative project for a toxicology unit in a forensic science course. My forensic science seniors love this project! This project allows students to focus on one element that is harmful to human health and research the history of how it has been used in society. This is an interdisciplinary project where students uncover their own learning and will show understanding in a presentation to their peers.I have also used this project in my chemistry courses, when I teach a toxicology

Adopt an Element Project
A student favorite! A great activity for students to explore their favorite element in detail. They will need to research and organize their information, include important facts and pictures, and create a slogan to sell their element. I have them present their element to the class, as well.

APA "Going Deep" Science Research Project
Guidelines and rubric for a research project inspired by the National Geographic series "Going Deep with David Rees." Students are encouraged to identify a simple scientific question (e.g., "how do you make ice cubes," "why do songs get stuck in your head," "is it healthier to drink regular or diet soda?") and do a deep dive into the research on the topic. Students identify sub-questions related to their main question (for instance, a student researching soda may ask what makes diet soda differe

Macromolecules Jigsaw
This activity involves students working in groups to learn about a specific type of macromolecule. The group then puts the information they learned into a class slideshow. Finally, they present their macromolecule to the class. This allows a student to become an expert in one macromolecule type and then lets their classmates teach them the others. I recommend preassigning groups. You will have 5 groups: one for macromolecules as a whole and then one for each of the four macromolecules. Included

Synthetic Materials and the Natural Substances they are Made of.
This is a two-day activity where students begin by completing a matrix of 14 synthetic fabrics and materials that we use in our everyday lives. They research to find what each is made of and what the material is used for. Then on the second day they use the included chart to select one of the synthetic hydrocarbon molecules to build in 3-D. Following the included instructions they will build the model using tiny colored marshmallows and toothpicks to represent the bonds. Finally they glue ever

Middle School Science, Physical Science, Density Cube Inquiry Lab
In the Middle School Science [or Physical Science] Density Cube Inquiry Lab - The volume of objects can be determined either by measuring dimensions or by using the displacement method, where the water's rise indicates volume. Density, reflecting mass per unit volume, influences buoyancy: objects lighter than displaced water float, while heavier ones sink. In a lab exploring these principles, students observe how varying masses of identical-sized objects affect their densities and buoyancy, pote
