Do you think the lab smells like rotten eggs? Sorry to hear about your sulfering. A set of five experiments covers many different topics including seasons, gravity, food, precipitation, and photosynthesis. Though not presented as a cohesive unit, each is able to stand on its own merits. All offer background information, pre-test, laboratory instructions, data collection, and analysis questions.

Instructional Ideas

Classroom Considerations

  • Requires prior knowledge of solving equations
  • Prepare for all labs before class, as some require quite a bit of setup
  • The food experiment requires boiling water throughout the activity
  • Be aware of all allergies
  • Precipitation experiment involves chemicals that can damage skin or might light on fire; follow all safety precautions

Pros

  • Includes answer keys
  • Provides diagrams and photographs of how to set up each experiment
  • Involves fairly common science equipment

Cons

  • None
