Teach physical and chemical change thru the science of “steganography” in this easy-to-implement yet highly engaging lab. No chemistry experience is required. However, this lab is a great addition to working with your history department to make the Revolutionary War come alive. George Washington used this technique to send coded messages throughout the war. Students will discover that the juice of lemons contains carbon which will enable them to write a secret message in the same manner as the Continental Army did in the 1770s.
MATERIALS
½ Lemon
Saucer
Water
Teaspoon
Cotton swab
White paper
Lamp (any heat source)

In addition I have included 4 mini lessons to help motivate your students
This product is great for sub. Just print and go. Complete answer key is provided
The periodic table is the language of chemists. Chemistry, as a subject, can feel quite tricky to students, because we must knit together three conceptual levels: the sub-microscopic, the macroscopic, and the symbolic. The key is to understand that the symbols are not just another hurdle we have to jump through, they’re something that can help us represent complex ideas. And that’s really amazing.This product reviews the periodic relationships that are necessary for a complete understanding of chemistry.
Lesson #1
Putting the periodic table to music will motivate students to learn the elements in a fun and unique way.
A complete rubric is provided
Lesson #2
This lesson is 20 multiple choice questions to help prepare students for the AP exams. Complete Answer key is given
PS1. Matter and Its Interactions
HS-PS1-1. Use the periodic table as a model to predict the relative properties of main group elements, including ionization energy and relative sizes of atoms and ions, based on the patterns of electrons in the outermost energy level of each element. Use the patterns of valence electron configurations, core charge, and Coulomb’s law to explain and predict general trends in ionization energies, relative sizes of atoms and ions, and reactivity of pure elements.
