Blood Spatter Analysis Lab: Angle of Impact Trig + Crime Scene Reconstruction
Turn your classroom into a forensic lab—without the mess or expense. This Blood Spatter Analysis Lab has students investigate real fluid dynamics + trigonometry using simulated blood to analyze stain patterns, calculate angle of impact, and complete a crime scene reconstruction using the stringing method. The science is real, the math is real, and the mystery hook is genuinely compelling. ✅ Grades 7–12 | 50–60 minutes | Groups 2–3 ✅ Prep ~15 minutes | Cost ~$2–$5 ✅ Strong math int

Theory in Practice
This activity requires students to flip a coin 100 times and calculate the cumulative probability for each trial of ten. Students should begin to develop the concept of theoretical versus experimental probability as the cumulative number of flips increases. Recognizing independent events, graphing scatter plots, and calculating percentages are skills students will practice during this activity. Teachers may use this activity as an introductory lesson for a unit on probability, in a statistics

Linear Spaghetti Strength
This linear relation lab activity is perfect for connecting patterns in real data with linear relations. Students test the strength of spaghetti by finding the minimum mass that a bundle of spaghetti can support. They then test again; increasing the number of strands in their bundle to see if there's a connection between the number of spaghetti strands and the minimum breaking mass. Data is very consistently linear. Materials needed: Spaghetti (1 box per class), styrofoam cups, string, pennies (

Candy Probability: Discovery of EXPERIMENTAL vs. THEORETICAL Probability
Middle Schoolers LOVE probability!
This is a GREAT lesson around Halloween when the kids are already hyped up on sugar and want to 'talk' to their classmates.
This activity allows the students to DISCOVER the differences between EXPERIMENTAL and THEORETICAL probability and connect it to everyday experiences. The probability lesson lends itself to fractions, decimals, percents, data collection, rational & irrational numbers, statistical graphs (box and whiskers, frequency tables...), measures

Penny Boat Lab: Density, Buoyancy and Archimedes
This is a one period activity/lab to teach students about the concept of density and Archimedes Principle, why things float. Students each get a piece of aluminum foil and design and make a boat. They then must calculate how many pennies it will carry before sinking, and then test it. This is an excellent one day STEM project that combines science, math, design and construction. Students will use the formula Density=Mass divided by Volume.

Scatterplots: Linear Regression Line of Best Fit:Forearms and Height (Editable)
After teaching my students about scatterplots, correlation, and the line of best fit, I take a day for them to do a hands-on lab, in which they measure their height (in inches) and their forearm length (from the tip of their elbow, to the bony point on their wrist), and we plot the class data, write the equation of the line of best fit, and then use the equation generated both forwards and backwards. They will need 45 minutes to an hour to do this in class.
