Chemistry | 30 Chemical Related Reading Passages + 30 Research Project Templates

Starting from:

$100

From states of matter to metals and the noble gases. From alkanes, alkenes and alkynes to fertilizers & ammonia. Even including chemical equilibrium, alkali metals and catalysts. This bundle is great to teach your chemistry related science class through some intriguing topics and drives clear structure when getting students to do research. Giving them some really important topics to consider such as acid rain and electrolysis which are challenging to engage with, but crucial in our understanding of our dynamic world and exploring it by observation and scientific inquiry. Providing them with reading passages and research project templates is very important indeed. With this in mind, let's engage with this excellent learning and teaching resource.

What a SET! 60 items on 30 topics for great variety and possibilities for engagement with your students.

These chemistry research project templates (webquests) provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resources that can help your students learn all about chemistry topics. For digital, you can provide a Google doc copy for ease of submission or a Microsoft word version as well. In these chemistry related research project templates (webquests) with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. They gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation.

These chemistry research project templates include:

Space for a one paragraph summary (that links to the 2 page science article also available on this topic - but does not have to).
Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats.
5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words (which also links to the science article also available)
3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer.
Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking.
Further, I have added a 1 page - 20 point rubric to be used for either self-assessment or teacher assessment as you deem fit. I hope it helps support the learning even further!

The template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.

These chemistry article provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. It is a chemistry article set with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. I am very proud of this series of chemistry articles and they are rich with information and wonder at the majesty of science. Each chemistry article includes a fun fact(s) to add to the knowledge gained from this article. Formatted in an easy to read and digest manner, each paragraph is numbered to help with referencing and each question answer has a paragraph reference number to point to the specific information (where applicable).

A SCIENCE RESEARCH PROJECT TEMPLATE CAN BE USED SO MANY WAYS:

Useful for substitute (sub) teaching
To extend students
To increase scientific literacy and research skills in your class
Great as a lesson filler when class goes too fast and you need a long running task
To inspire students on a particular topic
As a scaffold to support students who need support on research skills and can use a framework
To enhance critical thinking when doing research and making a relevant and interesting output
Give a selection of these research project templates for students to choose from
To enhance students ability to express ideas and synthesis knowledge
