What's inside: SCAFFOLDED Student Response Sheet (editable .docx + PDF, about 678 words, 5 pages); answer key / model answers for the teacher.

Standards: HS-PS1-4 — Develop a model to illustrate that the release or absorption of energy from a chemical reaction system depends upon the changes in total bond energy. HS-PS3-4 — Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence that the transfer of thermal energy when two components of different temperature are combined within a closed system results in a more uniform energy distribution among the components in the system.

Resource type: Phenomena-Based Lesson – Student Response Sheet. Format: editable Microsoft Word file plus a ready-to-print PDF.

Classroom use: Open with the phenomenon slide show, let students record ideas on the response sheet, and lead the discussion with the teacher guide. Built for high school Chemistry, grades 9–12.
