Egg Drop Challenge | STEM Lab | Physics | Momentum and Impulse
This a great lab that gets the students moving and competing. They will love working with their hands to build something creative. Students will use their knowledge of momentum and impulse to create a contraption around their egg. The project can be done in one lab period and with everyday basic supplies. Or it can be extended to multiple days. I like to do it twice because most people will fail the first time but learn and succeed the second time.Lab Includes (Fully Editable):Students Will: - B

How to Write a Lab Report: Guidelines, Rubric, and Sample Write Up
Lab Report - Lab report rubric, lab conclusionThis lab report bundle has saved me hours of grading and preparation usually required when grading lab reports consistently and fairly. Instead of the teacher writing multiple notes to the student on their reports, you can merely circle the rubric category that your student falls into. Students immediately know where they went wrong, and how to fix it. Also, the lab format sheet is written for easy student understanding, and application.This bund

Lab Activity: Flame Test
Flame Test - Electrons, LightThis is a much easier way to do the flame test lab experiment. Usually most experiments have you use a nichrome wire and acid cleaning each time a new test is to be completed. With my method, it will take you only half as much time to complete the lab. This lab includes background information that discusses the usages of the flame test, how electrons emit colored light, and explains the difference between the ground state and excited state of an atom.Included:•Bac

Projectile Motion Lab: Hit the Target | Physics
Many students have come up to me over the years and tell me this was their favorite lab. One student even said that when he was able to calculate where the ball would land and the ball hit the target, he felt like he had just performed magic. Students love this lab because they are asked to put their knowledge of physics into action and calculate the exact location where a ball will hit the ground. The lab is set up so they will have three different experiments where they will have to figure out
