Shargel Science Adventures

Wire, magnets, paper cups, pipe cleaners, and 3.5mm audio connectors – make your own set of headphones. A great project for the ear, electromagnetism, and workshops skills.

Sodium bicarbonate – dilute acetic acid and soap…. Mixed to rise just to the edge of the graduated cylinder. So many angles of science for new chemists.

Replacement of copper with silver in fascinating dance of chemistry.

A great way to start a unit on our amazing senses of hearing.

Elemental Silicon from playground sand – chemistry rocks!

Making the transition metals come alive!

Nothing like a good old thermite reaction to catch my chemistry students attention.

With the “Challenge-by-Choice” model of activity my 7th graders sure shined in their first icky… But fascinating dissection. Lots of eewhs…. And ahhhs!
