Despite the common misconception that “chemical” means toxic and is the opposite of natural, chemistry is the study of all substances (natural and man-made, toxic and non-toxic). It involves the identification of the building blocks of matter, and the ways they change.
American Chemical Society: Adventures in Chemistry
With online games, science experiments, animated video lessons and printable handouts, the American Chemical Society offers elementary and middle school students a fun hands-on introduction to chemistry. Topics include Secret Science of Braces, Diapers – the Inside Story, Soda Pop, Gum, and Flames.
Khan Academy: Chemistry
“This may be your first time taking chemistry, but chances are you know a lot already from observing the world around you. We will be covering the material in a first year introductory high school or college general chemistry course.” Videos (and transcripts) are arranged by topic, with a Table of Contents for a typical introductory chemistry class. Kahn also offers a video-based guide to AP Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry.
Periodic Table of Comic Books
Now class, open your comic books. Today we are studying the periodic table — and not just Superman and krypton, either. From hydrogen (H) to lawrencium (Lr), clicking on most of the elements in this periodic table will transport you to a comic strip reference. “I know you have no nerves, but my stinger injects a chemical compound of the world’s most potent elemental poisons . . . from lead to arsenic, to chlorine, krypton, selenium, and strontium.” This very creative approach puts the fun back in chemistry. Don’t miss it.
