We did a scavenger hunt for the most common elements in minerals. This activity covered multiple TEKS for mineral properties and elements found on Earth. I definitely want to modify this activity to be done in the classroom with our mineral collection as well as online resources.

This was a great lab to dive deeper into the chemistry TEKS of high school. It was a good refresher for what is in the future for my middle school students. I can see modifying this lab to cover the concept of heat transfer and the conversion of potential energy to kinetic (thermal) energy for 6th graders with engagement. One takeaway was to have a picture of the correct lab set-up posted for students to see.
