This is a PowerPoint presentation on levels of organization in the body from cells to tissues to organs to body systems. It is meant for life science classes 7-10th grade. It comes with a Microsoft word file (attached to the last slide) of fill-in-the-blank notes that go along with the presentation. Important key terms found in this presentation: Cells Nucleus Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Tissues 4 Types of Tissues Organs Body Systems

In this fun activity, students will learn how genetic variation determines a phenotype by creating their own creepy-crawly “monsters”. Each student will make a unique monster based on the out-come of flipping a coin. Important Terms: Genotype, Phenotype, Allele, Dominant, Recessive Materials needed for this activity: • Monster Genetics Activity Handout • 1 penny per student/group • Crayons and/or markers • Scissors • Glue Teacher Instructions: For this activity, students may work alone or

This 2-page worksheet is all about food webs! Students are asked to look at a food web and identify: producers, consumers, herbivores, carnivores and omnivores. Students should know the difference between a food web and a food chain. Students are also asked to draw their own food web in the worksheet and predict how one changing population will affect the others. Students are also asked to describe how a decomposer would fit into the food chain as well.
