Ecology - Biodiversity Lab
Studnents examine the degree of biodiversity that exists in one's everyday environment, in order to develop an understanding of how scientists classify organisms and to explain why biodiversity is important for living things.
Curated OER
CATCH, TAG and RELEASE
Students apply estimation strategies for problem-solving purposes. They become familiar with one aspect of a marine biologist's work.
Curated OER
Learning to Make Data Tables
Students construct data tables using the results of previous experiments. In this graphing lesson, students plot data and interpret the results. Students discuss how they organized their data.
Curated OER
DNA Fingerprinting with Gel Electrophoresis
Learners use DNA fingerprinting to demonstrate the concept that DNA fingerprinting can be used to identify individuals and solve problems. They use gel electrophoresis to analyze the DNA of a suspected criminal to prove innocence or guilt.
Curated OER
Invasion of the Habitat Snatchers!
Fourth graders investigate invasive plants found in a park or school environment and acknowledge the problems caused by the plants. They describe 4 methods of control of invasive plants.
Curated OER
From Restriction Maps to Cladograms
Pupils develop a matrix to determine the number of differences between each set of primate species. They determine closely related organisms then complete the cladogram and answer a set of questions.
Curated OER
Birthday Moons
Students find the phase of the moon on the date of their birth. In this science activity, students chart the moon from the date of their birth till they were one month old. Students fill out a graphic organizer after visiting a web...

Changes of State
Pupils examine molecules and the changes in energy of a system. In this energy systems lesson students complete a lab activity and describe changes of state.
Curated OER
Insect Classification
Pupils compare and contrast the visible structures of three insects based on photographs. They differentiate characteristics of crane flies, ants, and wasps then create a simple classification system.
Curated OER
Laparoscopy Tissue Biopsy
Young scholars describe the anatomy and physiology of a selected organ. They identify the major artery and vein that delivers blood to and from the selected organ and construct an accurate scaled 3D model of a selected organ.
Curated OER
Sizing Up Hail
Students participate in an estimation and measurement activity to improve their estimates of the size of hail. They hold several different sized wooden balls and record their guesses of the ball's diameters. They compare their estimates.
