Monitoring Weather
Students investigate weather throughout the course of the day and look for patterns and relationships using their collected data.
MatchGraph!
Students learn how to describe motion by competing against the clock to complete various exercises using a motion sensor and the free MatchGraph app.
How a Greenhouse Works: Heat
Using a temperature sensor, students investigate how heat inside a model greenhouse if affected by changes to the covering materials on the box.
How a Greenhouse Works: Light
Students change the angle at which light strikes a model greenhouse and measure its intensity.
Phase Change
Students will use a wireless temperature sensor to determine the effect of phase change on the temperature of a substance.
Properties of Ionic and Covalent Compounds
Students will use hardness, melting point, solubility, and conductivity to determine the bond type...
pH of Household Chemicals
Students will use a pH sensor to determine the pH of common household substances.
Archimedes' Principle
In this lab, students will use force sensors to measure the change in gravitational force on an object in the air and on that same object immersed in water.
Boyle's Law
In this lab, students will use absolute pressure sensors to investigate how changes in the volume of a confined gas with constant temperature affects pressure.
Conservation of Matter
In this lab, students will use temperature and absolute pressure sensors to measure changes in temperature and pressure during an oxidation reaction.
