Looking for a way to teach a super important life skill? How about home science experiments? What better kitchen science experiment to do none other then, cooking! Why not blend it was NGSS: Matter and its Interactions by cooking with yeast! Cooking with yeast is a fun way for students to learn about chemical reactions in our food. Cooking with yeast can be done virtually (as I have been doing) and in the classroom. You can scale it down to only activate the yeast or go ahead and bake the bread.
