This series of articles reveals the chemistry behind everyday products such as toothpaste, silly putty, Cheez-Its, and erasers. These fascinating and sometimes shocking revelations will motivate your students to investigate their favorite product. This award-winning site can be incorporated into an environmental science unit or used as a basis for a research project.

tag(s): chemicals (36)

In the Classroom

Use these articles to show how chemistry affects students' everyday lives. Once a week, select a product and show it to students via a printed article or via an interactive whiteboard. Have students create concept maps or Graphic Organizers, reviewed here, showing how chemistry led to the creation of the product.

Designed by Dr. Nigel Saunders, Head of Chemistry, Harrogate Granby High School, UK, this site is loaded with "outside of the box" approaches to understanding and applying principles of science and chemistry. Interactive crossword puzzles, games, "missions," PowerPoint shows, and quizzes can be used as entertaining and productive review tools for students. Structured worksheets are also provided to guide hands-on experiments on a variety of chemistry-related topics. Many of the ideas provided on this site would be ideal for use with a Chemistry Club. (Java, Javascript, and Adobe Acrobat Reader 4 or higher required.)

Oxford University's "pre-university" chemistry introduction may well be beyond the scope of most high school students, but the characteristically verbose presentations offer an interesting approach to the subject. While secondary chemistry teachers may find the approach interesting, its utility in the classroom will largely depend on your local curriculum.

Oxford University's online chemistry offerings include this collection of "virtual experiments" in a number of areas, along with a complete online "pre-university chemistry course." While the entire collection may be more than most secondary teachers can use, the individual components - with lots of animations and video - are well worth a look, especially if your laboratory resources are limited.

High school chemistry teachers, especially those teaching AP students, may find MIT's online course materials useful. MIT has committed to putting its entire curriculum on the web, and these early offerings include syllabi, reading materials, and a variety of subject-specific class notes. Before using these pages, teachers, students, and parents should all be aware of what Open Courseware is and is not.

This sizable collection of animations for undergraduate chemistry includes Quicktime, Shockwave, and animate GIF images. The utility of these for secondary classrooms will depend on your local curriculum, but the collection is extensive enough that it's worth a look if you're trying to find an illustration for a concept or principle.

Here's a collection of science lesson plans covering disciplines from geology to earth science, chemistry, and general science. Each includes complete procedures, standards references, and discussion. Some of these lessons use video clips as an integral component, so teachers will want to plan accordingly.

tag(s): dna (52), evolution (88), genetics (83)

In the Classroom

The lesson plans here are excellent! Choose from many lessons (levels 4-12) to use in class to save you time. All lessons have a summary explaining what you and students will encounter with that lesson. Some example titles are The Ladder of Life where through video and Web-based activities, the students will develop a greater understanding of what DNA does in a cell. Students will be able to assemble DNA parts in order to simulate DNA strands. They will also have the opportunity to experimentally view DNA through an extraction technique included in the lesson. Another is Evolution: Its Effect Throughout Geological Time and the Controversy where students review the basics of Charles Darwin's Theory of Evolution. They use the World Wide Web to explore the various stages of evolution, over geological time, and learn how each organism fits into the evolutionary story. These are just two representatives of how the many lessons are presented.

tag(s): periodic table (49)

In the Classroom

Save this site as a favorite on classroom computers to allow students to use MIT's periodic table as help with studying, worksheets, and review. What is great about this periodic table is that it provides additional information and images on all the elements, which can be accessed merely by clicking on them. A very useful site for any chemistry class!
