These experiments might be great to look at visually, however, I fail to see the underlying concepts being taught.

I’m a science teacher, and I’ve done the soda can demo with my students many times — you just need a hot plate. It’s a great demonstration of how gases expand when heated, and the effects of air pressure! Students love it, and they really have to think to figure out WHY it happens!

I agree, Al. And what exactly is the lesson taught in these activities?

Nope probably not! We did it at home, though…
