Description

Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions: This addresses NGSS PS1-6. Students will learn about exothermic and endothermic reactions and the engineering component. They will evaluate chemical reactions to determine if they are exothermic or endothermic. They will design and test a cold pack using one of the chemical reactions. Students will use engineering skills to engage in the design cycle and they will construct a solution.

NGSS MS PS1-6 Undertake a design project, engaging in the design cycle, to construct and/or implement a solution that meets specific design criteria and constraints test, and modify a device that either releases or absorbs thermal energy by chemical processes.*

This resource includes an informative slide show, two lab activities, a STEM engineering activity, a reading passage, response pages, and a quiz.

The materials for the labs include thermometers, hand warmers, glass jars, vinegar, baking soda, calcium chloride, ammonium chloride, and water.

The two chemicals listed can be purchased online from a science supply company. A link is included in terms of service.

For the engineering activity, students will need some ziplock baggies, tape, foil, and other easy-to-find household materials.

I am so impressed with this unit which manages to be distance learning and hands-on at the same time.  Really well thought out and engaging activities that allow students to practice each of the eight Science and Engineering Practices.  Really no prep for me!

The elephant article was excellent but I also thought the lab on dissecting a flower was broken down so easily, even telling me where to get inexpensive flowers!  This resource helped me teach this challenging standard in an engaging way.  Worth every penny!

My students loved this unit. I was able to present different elements of it throughout the month. It is hard to find interesting non-fictional, age-appropriate text for my students that they will enjoy. This was a great unit that aligned well for my students who have very different goals within the same group.
