Preview of The Edible Layers of the Earth Lab

The Edible Layers of the Earth Lab

Created by
Ellen Z
This is easy and pretty much all you need is to buy is a bag of m&m's! My students loved this and made great connections between the actual layers of the Earth and how it correlates with m&m's. There is also an answer key included. Very easy to follow directions.
Preview of Lactase Enzyme Lab

Lactase Enzyme Lab

Created by
MrsFitz
This lab demonstrates both the specificity and denaturation of the lactase enzyme. This is a true kitchen-chemistry lab- the only required materials are skim milk, lactase tablets (from the pharmacy aisle), and glucose test strips. The lab is fully editable. To simplify the lab or to shorten it for just one class period, I suggest removing "Part 2". A pre-lab worksheet, teacher preparation notes, expected results, and possible modification/extension are included.

Convex and Concave Lenses Activity

Created by
Science It Up
The lab activity requires the use of concave and convex lenses. I use simple small ones that are cheap and easy to buy. In addition, you need to have a small object (penny, pair of dice, etc) and a large object (cabinet, door, tv, etc) for students to examine. They will stay at their desks and use the concave and convex lenses to look at each item (once holding the lens close and once holding it at arm's length). Students will write their observations on the chart provided. Then, students will a

Looking for a new way to introduce lab process and scientific method? Use this lab as a great way to show students how science is done! This lab helps incorporate students love of music with scientific principles. By having the students listen to a variety of different tunes and measuring their pulse before and after each one, it attempts to answer the question, "Does music have an effect on your heart rate?" In short, easy to understand sections, this lab walks students through the sci

Mass, Volume, Density Task Cards/Lab Activity

Created by
MS Science Spot
Mass, Volume, Density Assessment Lab ActivityThis packet contains 14 Task Cards for students to complete on the concepts of finding mass, volume, and density. I suggest laminated the tasks cards so that you can reuse them from year to year. You can also use different materials depending on what you have available in your classroom, just be sure to edit the Word document to fit the changes you may have made. Set up the task cards around the classroom. Students rotate through the 14 stations a

AP Biology Lab 4: Water Potential Practice Using Sample Data

Created by
AP Bio Made Easy
This is an activity I have used for years in my classroom that has proven to be extremely effective in helping students understand how to calculate water potential in various situations. It will also help students predict direction of water flow based on water potential values. In this activity, students will graph sample data pertaining to percent change in mass for both a potato and zucchini. Using the graph, students will then determine water potential for the plants. In addition, there are

Iguana Dissection Guide

Created by
Hope Hogan
When I couldn't find a dissection guide for my high school Zoology class, I decided to create one. This is a simple, but thorough dissection guide that can be used as is, or can be modified to fit your particular needs.
Preview of Urinalysis Lab

Urinalysis Lab

In this "hands-on" lab, students are given "samples" of fake urine to test and then determine which urine belongs to which patient. It's a fun way to formatively assess student knowledge of urine formation and how diseases affect the nephron. You can order fake urine from Carolina Biological Supply, but I make my own urine. The recipe for each "urine" sample is also included in the lab! You will need to order the following though: ph strips, glucose and protein strips, specimen cups (optional).
Preview of Tug-of-War Physics Lab

Tug-of-War Physics Lab

Created by
Science It Up
Not only will students have fun playing tug-of-war, they will also be mastering the physics behind it! Students will use tug-of-war to determine the physics behind winning! Students will play tug-of-war and research friction, gravity, forces, and net forces to determine how to win a game of tug-of-war. Included is a data and observation sheet for students to complete and a write-up for students to show what they've learned. You'll also get a rubric and instructions to help guide your lab!

This simple lab gives students an opportunity to measure abiotic factors (temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen) and biotic factors (microorganisms) of pond water. Just stop by a local pond and get a pail of pond water. Pour a little of the water into empty baby food jars to distribute to students. Give them tools, then enjoy watching your students discover this microscopic world! Can they find any "pond critters?" They should! Then, ask them to use the "Pond Critter" sheet to identify the

Feeding Yeast (Fungi) Lab Life Science

Created by
MS Science Spot
A complete lab activity from start to finish Background -- In this experiment students will be using baker’s yeast. In order to make bread soft and fluffy, bakers add yeast to the mix of bread ingredients. When the yeast is mixed in, they begin to eat and release a gas (carbon dioxide) as a waste product. Releasing the gas causes little bubbles in the dough that causes the bread to rise. This is why there are holes in your bread. Students use yeast in different water solutions (ie:flour water,

Flower and Fruit Dissection Labs

Created by
Brook Carlsen
Students dissect a flower, such as a lily or alstroemeria, and then an apple to better understand how ovaries develop into fruits and ovules develop into seeds. Students are always amazed that the dried leafy part on the bottom of an apple was the flower's sepals! This lab can be done in two 40-minute days or in one and a half 55-min days. A couple lilies are needed for the second day so students can look at the pollen under the microscope. One year I bought both apples and star lilies (aroun
