Young kids love hands-on activities.This is a super fun water pH science experiment activity that shows kids how to use litmus test strips.
pH scale is an important indicator of how acidic or alkaline a solution is, and in this kitchen science experiment we use a red cabbage to determine it.
A refresher course on acids, bases, and the pH scale to better understand the meaning behind your pH test strip results.
Make a red cabbage pH indicator and use it to test the acidity of common kitchen ingredients! A red cabbage indicator turns vibrant colors in different solutions and introduces kids to acid/base chemistry. Making a cabbage juice indicator is a kitchen science experiment that makes a winning kids' science fair project!
In this activity, we combine science and art! We are making a turmeric pH indicator for acids & bases and drawing a little animation. It's a fun and easy...
This Color Changing Acid-Base Experiment is a fun science experiment with endless possibilities. This is great for kids of all ages.
How to make your own pH test strips using red cabbage indicator and filter paper. You can then use the pH paper to learn about the pH scale.

PRIMARY PHONICS - UNIT 6 We are ready to tackle digraphs ! I can’t believe we are already here. My kiddos were just starting school it seems like, and I remember most students couldn’t even identify their letters. Now we are reading sight words , CVC words , short stories and MO
We all know examples of everyday substances that can be classified as acids or alkalis: lemon juice is acidic, bleach is alkaline, and so on...
Vocabulary instruction is so critical in today’s classroom! A vast vocabulary will help students to become better readers and writers. Vocabulary is also essential to their performance on standardized tests. Helping kids to develop their vocabulary is time that is well spent in a busy classroom. I have developed a routine to teach new vocabulary
Intelligence Type Test, based on the work of Dr. Howard Gardner, Ph.D.
Using items from the kitchen this fascinating chemistry experiment explores Acids and Bases and pH Levels with items in the pantry.
We all know and love Kahoot, right? If you do not know about Kahoot then we have a few blog posts with tips and ideas to get you up to speed.( here and here.) I LOVE how engaged and excited my students are when we play Kahoot. I LOVE that my students do amazing on my tests if we play Kahoot to review. But...what I don't love is how off-the-chains-crazy they get! I know they're having fun but it gets insane! I also don't enjoy the technology issues that go along with any lesson like this, students get kicked out in the middle of the game, it takes too long to log in, and not everyone has a device in my classroom. Unless you are a 1:1 school (I'm so jealous!) then it is hard to have devices for everyone to play along. Sometimes I really just want to use Kahoot as a formative assessment to see what my students actually know about a topic we have been studying, and not have them act like crazy people. So I came up with the paper Kahoot response system. All you have to do is use the game pin and log on with one student device (I actually just use my phone!) Then pass out the templates. If you already have them folded it works best. Then demonstrate to students how they will show you their answer. I love doing it that this way, the student can kind of cup the answer and not show it around to everyone but you. By playing Kahoot like this, it's actually a little calmer because they are trying to get the correct answer, not just just trying to be first. And you actually can scan the room to see who has it correct. Click on the template (on the right) and you can download it for FREE! I usually try to change things up in my room and not do it the same way every time. Sometimes, I just let them be crazy people! Do you love Kahoot? Pin for later....
