Students pretend they are a food-quality tester. They develop a kit to test food for sugars, starches, proteins and lipids. They answer questions to complete the lesson plan.

Ninth graders determine the rate of respiration by yeast and which sugars can be used as a food source by yeast using a CO2 gas sensor and computer software. This lesson is for an honors Biology class.

In this atoms and sugar molecules worksheet, students are given the structural composition of the sugar molecule maltose. They determine the number of each type of atom in the molecule, they find the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms and...

Students build a model representing a snow-covered mountain out of flour, sugar, and potato flakes. Then they use the model to recreate an avalanche.

Learners develop problem solving skills while developing writing skills. They assume responsibility for a sugar or egg "baby" and journal the experiences. In addition, they create a birth certificate and a holder.

Students recognize that the fundamental building block of all organic and inorganic matter is the atom. They construct models of a sugar, fatty acid, amino acid and nucleic acid and describe their roles.

In this combustion worksheet, students calculate kJ obtained from combustion or the kJ used to fuel a car. Students use the heat of combustion of sugar and fat to determine the energy needed by the body. This worksheet has 1 short answer...

In this math word problems learning exercise, students complete math word problems dealing with maple trees, syrup, and a sugar bush. Students complete 6 problems where they click on links and that contain growth rate, percentages,...

Students create an original piece of edible art. In this edible art lesson, students decorate a sugar cookie in the style of Alexander Calder. Students view Calder's paintings and then create an original piece of art.

Fifth graders examine how sugars may be listed as an ingredient in various ways. E.g. Many of the words end in -ose (ex. Sucrose, dextrose, maltose)

Students review the structure and fuctions of plant and animal cells. They use various types of materials such as sugar cookies and cake frosting for this lesson plan.

Students observe, describe, and record characteristics of ocean animals (mammals and fish) and sea shells. They conduct an experiment comparing and contrasting sugar water, salt water and fresh water and create a mural of coral reef...

Eighth graders determine the amount of agitation necessary to dissolve various sized sugar particles. This task assess students' abilities to collect, organize, and interpret data, create appropriate graphs, predict future events based...

Students test factors that may affect the rate at which sugar dissolve in water. They conduct two studies: One is to test the effect of temperature on the rate of solvation and the other is to test a factor which Students come up with...

Pupils explore principles governing diffusion and osmosis. Students perform a dialysis tubing experiment. They obtain core samples of potato in varying concentrations of sugar-water to measure water potential of the potato cells. Data...

Students explore organic compounds. Using humor, factual and conceptual correctness, students create a skit explaining organic compounds. Students include topics such as sugar, polymerization, unraveling of proteins, and substrates. ...

Fourth graders examine the food labels on two similar items that are very different nutritionally such as a can of regular soda and a can of diet soda. Next they, sort through food labels to determine healthy and unhealthy foods by...

Fifth graders examine both physical and chemical changes, and how to identify the difference between the two. They observe the changes that occur in butter when it is exposed to heat and cold, heat energy. In their notebooks, they write...

Fourth graders determine what is meant by a physical change, and they demonstrate how they can make physical changes. They complete activities at stations that entail changes in color, size, texture, hardness, or state of matter. Using...

Students recognize the timbre of a celesta by listening to music that contains the celesta. They listen to music from Tchaikovsky's "Danse de la Fee-Dragee" (Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairies), track #14 and describe how the music...

Learners review the objectives for the light and dark reactions on photosynthesis. They discuss the conversion of Carbon dioxide to simple sugars occurs in the light independent reactions. Students are given the question of the day. ...

In this biology instructional activity, 9th graders describe what osmosis is and how it explains the fact tat a watery syrup forms when you put sugar on strawberries. Then they describe how proteins made by ribosomes leave the cell....

In this language arts worksheet, students study the past modal phrase "must have" in response to a situation. Students collaborate in pairs with one person reading a situation and the other choosing the most appropriate response from...

In this encyclopedia usage worksheet, students observe encyclopedia spines A-Z and determine in which volume the nouns airplanes, cats, Ohio, and sugar will appear. Students answer four questions.
