Looking for a meaningful but fun way to show students the real-life impacts of concepts you’ve been teaching in your science class? We’ve got you covered! In this experiment, your students will discover the effects of acid rain on natural and man-made aspects of the environment. Perfect for sparking curiosity and critical thinking, this experiment is an excellent addition to your science curriculum.
A Perfect Addition to Your Acids and Bases Lessons
Deep connections and understanding take place when students see how what we’ve been teaching them impacts the real world. That’s why this experiment is a perfect complement to your lessons on acids and bases. It gives students a hands-on opportunity to explore the real-world impact of acid rain. By observing its effects on both natural and man-made materials, students can connect abstract chemical concepts to environmental science, deepening their understanding and making the topic more engaging and relevant.
The Acid Rain Experiment Kit includes:
Teacher’s Guide and Station Supply Lists
The teacher’s guide and station supply lists make setting up this experiment a breeze. The lab uses common household items like vinegar, baking soda, and chalk, and the instructions walk you through everything you’ll need to have ready so your students can perform the experiment.
Station Instructions
Keeping students on track can be challenging during an experiment. These station instructions remind them what they should be doing at each stage in the acid rain experiment. That means they’ll be focused so you can spend your time helping the students who need you and enjoying this activity with your class.
Student Lab Packet
The student lab packet guides students through the stages of the scientific method, ensuring that the experiment is a fun learning experience they’ll remember long after it’s done. Questions help students access their background knowledge, analyze what they’re observing, and come to conclusions based on their observations.
