This is a launch point to explore lessons and units that are purposefully designed to support Chemistry Performance Expectations of the Nevada Academic Content Standards for Science (NVACSS) based upon the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS).
These resources are compiled in no particular order. As new resources become available, they will be included here.
The NGSS Pathfinder provides numerous technology-supported activities, where students can engage in doing real science as they plan and carry out investigations, use models, analyze data and design solutions. Students also gain wide experience with crosscutting concepts—from scales in space and time to energy and systems—across domains in science, math and engineering.
Begin by selecting Core Idea: Physical Sciences, then a Practice and Crosscutting Concept to access aligned technology-supported activities.
Check out these Chemistry simulations that can be used to support face-to-face and online/virtual learning. Create a free account and gain access to lessons developed and used by teachers to engage students in manipulating variables, examining relationships, and testing a variety of different setups as they engage in the practices of science and engineering.
