9th grade physical science cultural activities

Physical Science, Physics

This is meant to be an alternative form of assessment to MCQ problems. Includes all necessary student materials, a grading rubric, and an answer key.Students first analyze graphs of motion and match them to varying situations that they describe. They then utilize a virtual simulation to analyze varying force driven motion situations and explain the results. Finally, students address a culturally relevant piece by analyzing the motion and forces included in a sport or other physical activity.

Chemistry, Physical Science

This is meant to be an alternative form of assessment to MCQ problems. Includes all necessary student materials, a grading rubric, and an answer key.Students use a virtual simulation to determine the pH of varying substances and state how the pH of those substances are altered by adding water to them. Students then utilize a different virtual simulation to analyze the components of acids and bases. Finally, students address a culturally relevant connection to the information by determining the p

Ice cream phase and temperature change lab

Created by

kenzie kelley

This is the student sheet I use to have students make ice cream in a bag. We do this at the end of our energy unit which discusses energy involved in phase and temperature changes. We also record these changes with temperature vs time graphs, heat calculations, and energy bar charts/ "LOL charts" (ASU modeling methods). This lab is fun can can be done in gallon sized bags, but I have found saving large plastic or metal containers ( dishwasher pod or coffee cans) work better.

Thermal Energy Causing Phase Change - Alternative Assessment

Created by

Chemistry, Physical Science

This is meant to be an alternative form of assessment to MCQ problems. Includes all necessary student materials, a grading rubric, and an answer key.Students begin by reading and answering questions regarding heat, temperature, and thermal energy from a ck12 resource. They then describe phase changes based on phase change diagrams. Finally, a culturally relevant piece has students address the lack of safe drinking water in under served communities and means to make it healthier.

Gemstones and the Rock Cycle

Created by

This actually came to be due to a student revolt against my Rock Cycles lesson. Part of my 'Earth Breakers Institute' Series, students have some role-play involved in their task. They are to solve some mysteries surrounding their birthstones. There is a safe site link in the document that leads to a nice little trove of information that students may use for their paper. Students are expected to answer some questions about the history of birthstones and how the stone is created through the Roc
