Skittle Radiometric Decay Half-life Lab
Did you know you can use Skittles candy to demonstrate absolute dating and radiometric decay! Buy a 1-4 lb bag at your local bulk warehouse store for savings. This lab is a great way to show how isotopes decay by shaking a plate full of random skittles. Students use Skittles to observe "Isotopes" decay over each half life. At the end of the lab (and only IF they have done all their work) they can enjoy their "daughter products". Skittles were used because they are durable, hypoallergenic, and th

Math Notebook
My students call this their "Math Bible". It has a one page of notes for each lesson of Pre-Algebra.Skills in here are used in 5th-12th grade. & definitely beneficial for homeschool use. I have students either glue them into their own notebook or I will hole punch and have them put into a folder/binder.Other teachers have asked for this notebook to refresh their memory.
