Unit Conversion (Unit Factor Method) Challenge Stations
I believe unit conversions / stoichiometry / dimensional analysis is one of the most important skills to master. It is so useful in real life, whether traveling internationally, cooking, building, sewing, etc. After the 50th worksheet and word problem, I decided to make activities and stations for my students to practice unit conversions. Each station is set up for a different “real life” scenario that could involve unit conversion. You can modify the scenarios to fit the materials you have, but

Olympic Proportions (Eight 7th Grade Math Stations)
This lesson connects 7th grade Common Core math standards in Ratio/Proportions and Geometry to the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. Students will work in groups of 3 to 5 and rotate about every 15 minutes to each station. Students will apply their knowledge of ratio, rate, unit rate, constant of proportionality, tables, graphs, writing equations, and computing actual lengths from a map using scale. Stations include interesting facts about the winter Olympics in Russia and/or require stu

Distances in Solar System and Universe
This is a two for one activity set. Both of them involve taking distances in space and scaling them down to sizes observable on Earth. The first activity calculates sizes of the planets based on shrinking the Earth down to a 1cm diameter and then showing the spacing of the planets on a football field. The students will also calculate the mass distribution in the solar system between the planets and the sun. The second activity takes distances in the universe and scales them down to the Earth.

Zombie Motion, Speed and Acceleration Physics Lab Set
Have you had days where your students seem like zombies? Why not have them act like zombies to study the physics of motion?!This lab set contains all the note sheets, labs and follow up to study speed, motion, acceleration and the start of Newton's Laws!You can change this to study the motion and force of zombies, though I did this with the physics cars I had. I also found that red, black and blue dry erase markers can be used to make a quick zombie makeup set. You can scare students or have the

Lab: Testing the Activity Series
This is a multiple concepts lab that has a lot of 'wow' factor for students as metals disappear and new ones appear. It is in miniscale so you that don't use that much of your chemicals. For 250 students, I generally use up: 20 g Fe, three 12"x12" sheets of Al foil, 12" of Mg ribbon, 20g Zn powder, and 200 ml of 1M CuSO4 solution. Equipment: large test tubes, 0.001 accuracy balance, long glass thermometer, small beaker, graduated cylinder, timer (or let them use cell phones)

Skittles Proportion Activity
Students are to be provided a bag of skittles. They are going to use proportions and ratios to determine if there are the same number/ratio of each color in all different sized bags.
I had students work in groups of 2 for this activity. Within the activity I broke it up into three different sections; a pre-lab, lab, and post-lab portion. Students make initial guesses/hypothesis, test out their theory, use proportions and ratios to analyze their results and graph data.
