The Cloning of Plasmid and Spinach DNA
Students will first extract genomic DNA from spinach and perform a restriction enzyme digestion on both the spinach DNA and the plasmid using the same restriction enzyme. They then ligate the cut plasmid DNA with the cut spinach DNA in...
Curated OER
Physiology Activity Perception and Behavior
High schoolers conduct an experiment to determine a fly's ability to detect sugar, its behavioral response, how a previous experience may alter the response, if a fly can be tricked, and how human sensitivity compares to a fly.
Curated OER
Down the Drain
Students examine the following concepts: If water supplies contain materials which rot or decompose, oxygen is used. Decay and decomposition require vast supplies of oxygen. The use of oxygen for decay of wastes may be a life or death...
Curated OER
Depending On Each Other. Communities And Ecosystems
Seventh graders investigate how the ecosystems of the world has influence upon the immediate and nonimmediate environments. The interelationships of food webs is discussed. The class researches one type of ecosystem for a class project...
Curated OER
The Cry Of The Wolf
Students inverstigate the history of wolves and how they have changed throughout the ages. The movement to eradicate the wolves is studied and students are asked to explain their opinion of it. This is given after spending the time to...
Curated OER
Science: Testing Water for Toxicity
Students investigate the potential toxicity of water samples using California blackworms to test water quality. They observe the worms' behaviors in different water samples and determine which sample has the highest toxicity. At the...
Curated OER
Determination of the percentage of Acetic Acid in Vinegar
Students determine the concentration of acetic acid when the concentration of the base with which is titrated is known. They investigate how to weigh a sample using the balance, measure volumes using graduated cylinder, explore the...
Curated OER
Periodic Table & Its Trends-Day 1
Students are introduced to the periodic table. They find the common trends among the electron configurations and the names of certain groups of the table. Students explore the atomic mass, atomic number, mass number, mass and charge...
Curated OER
Transmission of Disease
Students provide names of viral diseases that they would possibly like to be infected with today; listing them on the Smart Board. They then come to an agreement about what virus to use and use beakers of fluids to simulate how viruses...

How Can You Prevent Spoilage?
Students complete laboratory activity to discover what temperature is most effective in prohibiting bacterial growth in two percent milk. Students then write lab report detailing findings.
Curated OER
Determining Liquid Densities
Students practice determining liquid densities in a short, hands-on lab activity. Students use a graduated cylinder to measure out 100 milliliters of a liquid, find its mass using a balance, and record measurements in a data table....
Curated OER
Acid Rain
Students investigate the quality of water using a variety of methods. They use a pH probe to measure the pH and study the effect of dissolved CO2 in the water. Students also observe the effect of the pH upon the dissolving of H2SO4 in...
