Introducing the Atom
A resource to be used for Tier I instruction for the introduction of the structure of atoms.
Covalent Bonding: Electron Dot Diagrams
Given descriptions, diagrams, scenarios, or chemical symbols, students will model covalent bonds using electron dot formula (Lewis structures).
Matter and Energy—Chemical Reactions
Given descriptions or illustrations, students will investigate how evidence of chemical reactions indicates that new substances with different properties are formed.
Gravitational Force
This resource provides flexible alternate or additional learning activities for students learning about the gravitational attraction between objects of different masses at different distances. IPC TEKS (4)(F)
Electromagnetic Forces
Given schematic diagrams, illustrations or descriptions, students will identify the relationship of electric and magnetic fields in applications such as generators, motors, and transformers.
Matter and Energy—Food Chains, Food Webs, and Energy Pyramids
Given scenarios and descriptions, students will be able to diagram the flow of energy through living systems, including food chains, food webs, and energy pyramids.
6.01 Classifications of Waves
In this video, we explore the two fundamental categories of waves and give physical examples of each.
6.02 Properties of Waves
In this video, we define the fundamental quantities associated with waves, including frequency, period, amplitude, and speed.
6.03 Sound Waves
In this video, we explore how the mathematics and concepts of waves apply to a specific type of wave: sound.
6.04 The Doppler Effect and Interference
In this video, we explore the Doppler effect, which modulates the perceived frequency of waves depending on the relative motion between source and observer.
6.05 Applications of Waves
In this video, we explore how the mathematics and concepts of waves apply in the everyday world.
7.01 Electric Charge
In this video, we define electric charge, conductors, and insulators.
7.02 Coulomb's Law
In this video, we define Coulomb's law and examine the interaction between two stationary, charged particles.
7.03 Electric Field
In this video, we define the electric field and field line conventions.
3.01 Math Skills
In this video, we review some of the necessary math skills for solving problems in Chemistry.
3.02 Graph Interpretation
In this video, we interpret data from graphs, and discuss direct and indirect relationships.
3.03 Recording Measurements
In this video, we discuss SI units, accuracy, and precision.
3.04 Temperature
In this video, we discuss the Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin temperature scales.
3.05 Scientific Notation and Significant Figures
In this video, we use scientific notation and determine rules for significant figures.
3.06 Decimal Prefixes and Equalities
In this video, we convert units using SI prefixes and conversion factors.
