Chemistry of Life - Building Labs BUNDLE
This bundle of 3 labs includes the carbohydrate, lipid, and protein building labs. All 3 focus on demonstrating the differences between these types of organic molecules and applying those differences beyond just visual models. The students figure out how to put together models of simple carbohydrate, lipids, and proteins, and combine/break them apart to demonstrate hydrolysis and condensation reactions. Each lab has its own detailed page as well. These labs focus discussion on each type o

I'M IMPRESSED - A DESIGN BRIEF
This challenge is one in a series of investigations that concentrates on forensic science (in this case, specifically, tool marks) and the process skills associated with pursuing such inquiries. This challenge presents an opportunity for students to develop a reasonable procedure for creating and comparing tool impressions. It is anticipated that students will make and record accurate observations, draw reasonable inferences, and write data-supported conclusions. It should be noted that students

HAIRY SCARY - A DESIGN BRIEF
This challenge was crafted as an application activity for a unit on microscope study or as a research/problem-solving quest with a forensic twist focusing on the structure of different kinds of hair. It should be noted that students may not find irrefutable evidence in this forensic investigation. It is for this reason that a variety of interpretations may be valid and should be accepted so long as these contentions are supported by data.

Enzyme Lab with Student Writen Procedure and Lab Analysis- Common Core and NGSS
This lab uses amylase enzyme isolated from soaking pinto beans in water to allow students to investigate the function of enzymes. The teacher will demonstrate a sample set-up of the lab, but students are responsible for picking an independent variable they think will effect the function of amylase and writing a procedure to test that variable, and then performing the experiment.

Physics Misconception Cards
These are two sets of seven questions pre-formatted to be printed on Avery 5163 (or 5263) shipping labels which can then be placed on either side of a 3x5 card. Each question can then be flipped to affirm or deny a statement related to common misconceptions related to the nature of forces. These misconception relate specifically to Origin, Possession, Motion, Order, Direction, Visibility, and Size.
These misconceptions were gleaned from the famous work by David Hestenes, Malcolm Wells, and Greg

Modeling Energy Flow and Constructing Explanation and Arguments CER Task
In this activity, students will develop a computational model of the energy flow of United States. Students will do this by working in pairs to use clue cards to input data into the visual energy flow diagram on their handouts. They will then use algebraic thinking to complete the missing information in the model.
After developing their model, students will write a scientific explanation or argument on one of three prompts. The writing is scaffolded using the Claims-Evidence-Reasoning-Rebuttal
