Punnett Square Practice Flowers
**Distance Learning and Remote Learning Appropriate In this flower genetics practice, students use a traits chart to determine genotypes and phenotypes, and perform genetic crosses using punnett squares. The practice is scaffholded - students begin with determining basic alleles, genotypes and phenotypes and labeling these as homozygous and heterozygous. Students move on to cross genes by setting up punnett squares in order to determine probabilities of genotypes and phenotypes appearing in off

Energy Transformation Practice: Reviews Types of Energy and Energy Transfers!
I've done this activity from 7th through 12th grades and it's always entertaining to see what they come up with. Since they're not actually building it, they can really think out of the box (ex- nuclear energy and thermal energy become popular). I usually do this after a lesson on energy and then I will show then the OK Go, "This Too Shall Pass" video as that is the ultimate contraption to model (in my opinion). You may also wish to show them Rube Goldberg examples. Or, modify a bit and simply u
