| ==== '''2. 90-Minute Challenge''' ==== | | = |
| '''Main Activity:''' Explore chemistry in everyday life by breaking into small groups and completing the following challenges. Each group works on one variation of the challenge and presents their findings at the end.
| |
| | |
| '''Challenge Variations (Choose One Per Group):'''
| |
| | |
| # '''Everyday Chemistry:'''
| |
| #* Identify at least 5 everyday items or activities (e.g., cooking, cleaning, batteries) that involve chemistry.
| |
| #* Explain the role of chemistry in these activities.
| |
| #* Bonus: Identify one "mystery" chemical process (e.g., rusting) and explain how it works.
| |
| # '''Branches of Chemistry Scavenger Hunt:'''
| |
| #* Research and find real-world examples of each branch of chemistry (organic, inorganic, etc.).
| |
| #* Create a visual or diagram linking everyday activities to these branches.
| |
| # '''Testable Questions Lab:'''
| |
| #* Brainstorm 5 testable questions related to chemistry (e.g., "Does the pH of water affect plant growth?").
| |
| #* Pick one question and design an experiment to test it (no lab work required, just the setup and hypothesis).
| |
| # '''Chemistry in Food:'''
| |
| #* Research how chemistry is involved in cooking or food preservation (e.g., baking soda in baking, vinegar in pickling).
| |
| #* Design an infographic or poster explaining one example.
| |
| # '''Scientific Method in Action:'''
| |
| #* Pick a real-life chemistry problem (e.g., stains on clothes, rust on metal).
| |
| #* Use the steps of the scientific method to propose a solution and outline how you’d test it.
