This activity uses turmeric, a common spice in curry, as an indicator for acidity and basicity. Turmeric is yellow in acid and neutral substances, but turns bright red with bases.

In this activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

This activity (9th activity on the page) about hearing demonstrates to learners the importance of having two ears.

In this activity, learners apply a dissolving test to known crystals to identify the unknown. Since the unknown is chemically the same as one of the known crystals, it should dissolve similarly.

In this activity, learners will discover how to make butter from scratch. One optional tips includes adding marbles to speed up the process.

Why does milk make some people sick? In this activity learners explore this question and explore the chemistry of milk, and our bodies!
