6,7! Gen Z Phrases vs Your Pulse: A Scientific Investigation
Do your students seem like they are speaking their own Gen Z or Gen Alpha language? Does it drive you bananas? Well don't beat them, join them! In this scientific investigation, students test the relationship between repeating certain phrases (6,7 or other equally obnoxious , I mean fun sayings) and their pulse. Does the pulse increase or decrease the more times someone repeats phrases? Does your teachers' pulse change? A fun way to let them use their favorite sayings and still learn about

Air Pressure On A Marshmallow
Students investigate and analyze the affect of air pressure on small marshmallows. Students love marshmallows and cool science experiments. This lab activity involves both. In this lab activity, students observe, first hand, the affect of air pressure on matter. Watch students grin as they watch the marshmallows seem to shrink all on their own as pressure is applied. Watch students' grin even more when they see the marshmallows double and triple their original sizes as the air pressure is decrea
