  • Project
  • Rubric
  • Join to access all included materials

Students work in small groups collecting and analyzing data as they learn how to best grow yeast. This lesson allows students to conduct several student-created experiments as they continually generate questions and hypotheses. Ultimately, their findings will be presented in poster form to the entire the class.
