Chemistry BUNDLE


Chemistry Packets

We have done a number of Chemistry Units over the years. Plus, we would often weave a bit of chemistry in with our other units. For example, if we talked about the water cycle we would build a water molecule with our Molecular Model Kit (affiliate link) or we would build carbon dioxide (or even glucose molecules!) when talking about photosynthesis.

Molecular Model KitMolecular Model Kit: We have had our Molecular Model Kit on hand from the time the kids were pretty young. We use it multiple times a year… building everything from water and carbon dioxide molecules to glucose or methane, ethane, propane, etc. (depending on what we were talking about!) I recommend you get one that has at least 12 (white) hydrogens, 6 (red) oxygens, and 6 or more (black) carbons  — I highly recommend this kit (for any time) but especially if you do the Physical & Chemical Properties of Matter Unit and/or the Chemistry Unit.

We now have two Chemistry Bundles available.

Our Chemistry BUNDLE of 6 includes 6 packets. These units are PDF downloads.

  • Introduction to Chemistry – Size of Atoms Mini-Unit
  • States of Matter Packet
  • Properties of Matter Packet
  • Electricity & Circuits Packet
  • Chemistry Packet
  • pH scale – Acids and Bases Worksheet Packet

The Chemistry BUNDLE of 8 option includes the units above plus the Ions & Isotopes Unit and Organic Chemistry Unit.

Introduction to Chemistry – Size of Atoms Mini-Unit

How small is an atom? How does an atom compare in size to virus or to a plant cell?  This introductory chemistry packet has a number of activities to help kids conceptualize just how small an atom is. This unit includes activities and notebook pages to help students conceptualize just how small an atom is compared to other things such as DNA, cells, frogs’ eggs, or a mosquito or other small organisms.

Chemistry Worksheets on Size and Scale of atoms cells and more

This packet begins with a basic introduction to chemistry.  We talked about how Greek philosophers thought about matter and proposed the idea of an indivisible particle called an atom. In the 1700s scientists learned more about atoms and in 1803, John Dalton proposed the Atomic Theory, the idea that all matter is made of atoms.

Atoms WorksheetsFrom there, we talked about the size of an atom. One quick activity includes illustrations of atoms and molecules, viruses, bacteria and other cells. Students have to pick out the pictures of atoms and molecules.  Illustrations don’t tell us much about the relative size of these particles.  The next Size Comparison Activity is designed to help understand just how small an atom is.

IParts of an Atom Worksheetst also introduces students to some really small measurements – the nanometer and micrometer.

The final page introduces students to elements and the periodic table.

There are several notebook pages. The student pages are fill-in-the-blanks.  There are full-text pages which the instructor can use (or if your family prefers, your students can read through the full-text pages instead).  You do not need any outside sources or books with this packet. This Introduction to Chemistry Packet will take just a few days to complete.

Ions and Isotopes Chemistry Unit

$7.99 Ions and Isotopes Chemistry Unit

Ions Isotopes Chemistry UnitIons and Isotopes Worksheets Chemistry UnitMy middle school daughter (14) just finished this new chemistry unit on ions and isotopes. It is more than 125 pages. I’m excited to share this new unit with you!

How is an ion different from an isotope?What are ions and isotopes? An atom has three subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.

  • Each element on the periodic table has a unique number of protons. The number of protons for an element is always the same. It can be determined by the atomic number of that element on the periodic table.
  • Sometimes an atom has more or fewer electrons.  This gives it a negative or positive charge. These are called ions. Most chemistry students need to know some of the common ions like chloride, sulfate, oxide, or peroxide and this unit will help students become familiar with them through worksheets and other activities.
  • An atom sometimes has more or fewer neutrons.  These are called isotopes. Students will practice writing isotope names, learn about mass numbers and determine the exact number of protons and neutrons in a given isotope.
