Chemical Water Quality Field Research Project
Built as a month long, end of year project, students get to discover the water quality of several geographically different natural water sources by completing field research and data collection. As a student centered project, students will research how to use different water quality testing probes, then conduct online and book research to better understand what water quality is and how it is affected by various contaminants, chemicals and the environment. Using their research and field data, students share their results with each other and write a cumulative water quality report in which they compare and rank the natural water sources they test to each other for safety and environmental impact.

Lesson explores compounds, mixtures and solutions, defining each and what distinguishes them from each other. Students complete a lab as an introduction, use a PowerPoint to refine their knowledge and
In this lesson, students use the Kepler’s Laws PhET Simulation to collect data on the period and average radius of the planetary orbits. They graph and analyze that data to derive Kepler’s 3rd Law.
In this high school science/engineering lesson on exploring cracked steel, students will delve into the concept of cracked steel and its impact on structural integrity. They will define composites and
