What educators are saying

These were easy to set-up and quick. Especially when I have only about 50 minutes. Students are engaged. They help reinforce the lessons/notes that were taught.
These are awesome labs that are generally green. I love the fact that they are short so that they fit into a 60 minute class period.

Description

Chemistry labs are tough to come by and often have a laundry list of specific chemicals you'll need to make them happen. This lab book is a full year's worth of chemistry lab activities with a very simple list of materials you'll need. In fact, I was able to do upwards of 90% of these labs in my art classroom turned chemistry "lab." This very easily could be translated to a homeschool chemistry lab book or chemistry lab manual- most of the materials are so simple you could use them in your kitchen!

FEATURES

  • Labs to last THE WHOLE SCHOOL YEAR
  • Print them individually or give them all as a full workbook
  • Save time figuring out what kind of labs to do
  • Eliminate the research on clean up (most of these go straight down the drain or in the trash - some are even edible!)
  • Go green - reduce the yucky chemical usage (and use small quantities)
  • Save on your budget! Without buying ALL those other chemicals, spend your science budget on other things on your wish list

WHO IS IT FOR?

This lab book is perfect for a first year high school chemistry class. Depending on your state standards (and what your students learn in year one), about 50% of the labs would also translate well to a chemistry class for college credit.

WHAT SKILLS DO THE LAB ACTIVITIES REQUIRE?

  • Each lab has either post lab questions, a written paragraph conclusion or both
  • Some labs have pre-lab questions
  • Some labs ask students to develop their own procedure
  • Some of the labs are edible!
  • Some are fun & messy
  • Some labs are games!

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

  • 6 different covers to assign to different classes
  • Lab Safety Contract Poem
  • Detailed instructions on How to Write a Chemistry Lab Report
  • Table of Contents
  • 41 Lab Activities as a Lab Book
  • Same Lab Activities on Unnumbered Pages so you can print just for the day
  • Materials & Set Up Guide
  • Teacher Version with Answer Key
  • Google Sheet Calculators to check lab work that includes student calculations

LOOKING FOR INDIVIDUAL LABS INSTEAD?

Many of the labs included in this lab book can be purchased individually, though the lab book does have a few exclusives.

Check the preview file to see which of my individual labs are included in the lab manual, plus try out a lab from the book.

NEED MORE INFORMATION?

I wrote a blog post with ALL the details on this chemistry lab book.

Even though the bench work is simple, the synthesis is quite rigorous. Read more about lab conclusions.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSHS-PS1-1
Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of elements based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of atoms. Examples of properties that could be predicted from patterns could include reactivity of metals, types of bonds formed, numbers of bonds formed, and reactions with oxygen. Assessment is limited to main group elements. Assessment does not include quantitative understanding of ionization energy beyond relative trends.
NGSSHS-PS1-4
Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy. Emphasis is on the idea that a chemical reaction is a system that affects the energy change. Examples of models could include molecular-level drawings and diagrams of reactions, graphs showing the relative energies of reactants and products, and representations showing energy is conserved. Assessment does not include calculating the total bond energy changes during a chemical reaction from the bond energies of reactants and products.
NGSSHS-PS1-5
Apply scientific principles and evidence to provide an explanation about the effects of changing the temperature or concentration of the reacting particles on the rate at which a reaction occurs. Emphasis is on student reasoning that focuses on the number and energy of collisions between molecules. Assessment is limited to simple reactions in which there are only two reactants; evidence from temperature, concentration, and rate data; and qualitative relationships between rate and temperature.
NGSSHS-PS1-7
Use mathematical representations to support the claim that atoms, and therefore mass, are conserved during a chemical reaction. Emphasis is on using mathematical ideas to communicate the proportional relationships between masses of atoms in the reactants and the products, and the translation of these relationships to the macroscopic scale using the mole as the conversion from the atomic to the macroscopic scale. Emphasis is on assessing students’ use of mathematical thinking and not on memorization and rote application of problem-solving techniques. Assessment does not include complex chemical reactions.
NGSSHS-PS1-3
Plan and conduct an investigation to gather evidence to compare the structure of substances at the bulk scale to infer the strength of electrical forces between particles. Emphasis is on understanding the strengths of forces between particles, not on naming specific intermolecular forces (such as dipole-dipole). Examples of particles could include ions, atoms, molecules, and networked materials (such as graphite). Examples of bulk properties of substances could include the melting point and boiling point, vapor pressure, and surface tension. Assessment does not include Raoult’s law calculations of vapor pressure.
