One "mini" lab -or shortened activity- to reinforce or introduce concepts to students. I call these activities “mini labs” because they are simple activities that do not take the whole class period.

This particular lab focuses on the observation of two chemical changes and reinforces or introduces the signs that a chemical change has taken place.

Includes: teacher information, materials list, procedures, helpful tips for facilitating the activities and student handouts/lab sheets

Materials Needed:

Graduated cylinder

Water

2 clear plastic cups

2 eye droppers

Iodine solution

Cornstarch or Potato Starch

Spoon

Vitamin C tablet (Orange Juice Concentrate can be subbed)

MS-PS1-2: Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred.

Unleash your inner scientist and budding chef with "Edible Science Experiments for Elementary Explorers"! Dive into a world where learning is as delicious as it is engaging. This vibrant book is packed with ten hands-on experiments that transform your kitchen into a fascinating laboratory. Watch gummy bears magically grow, create a rainbow in a jar with edible layers, make fizzy lemonade erupt like a volcano, and even grow your own sparkling rock candy crystals!

Each experiment is presented with clear, step-by-step instructions and easy-to-understand explanations of the scientific principles at play. Discover the wonders of density, chemical reactions, osmosis, emulsions, and more – all while creating tasty treats and concoctions. Perfect for curious kids and enthusiastic learners, this book makes science accessible, fun, and absolutely edible! Get ready to explore, experiment, and eat your way through the amazing world of science!

Students in this lab will utilize a variety of scientific method skills. They will collect data, create their own data collection tables, perform calculations, and use inferring skills.

Students will have four separate questions that develop their scientific thinking skills.

This lab has easily accessible materials and can be altered to a variety of "atomic mass" units, such as candy or trail mix. This is great to do at home, distance learning, or in the classroom.

Welcome, young scientists and teachers! This eBook is full of fun and colorful experiments that show how different substances can react to create amazing effects. You will see bubbles, color changes, fizzing eruptions, and even “rockets” that zoom up into the air. As you explore these experiments, remember that science is all about asking questions, observing closely, and having fun learning about the world around us.

There are 20 exciting chemistry experiments included. They all involve simple chemical reactions that can be safely performed by kids. For each experiment, the materials are listed, and the step-by-step procedure. Finally, an explanation is given, so as to highlight the science behind the experiment.

Last but not least: All experiments must be conducted under strict adult supervision. Always wear safety goggles (or ask an adult to help you wear them) and use the experiments in a safe area where spills can be easily cleaned up.

A helpful introduction to lab work at any level! Students will practice the scientific method by altering the dependent variable in a bubble mixture. They have three questions that discuss observations and help them form a general conclusion.

These materials are easily accessible and can be found within the home. A great lab for distance learning or in class learning!
