Your students go on a six week (2 to 3 hours each week) adventure into the ocean as a team contracted to undertake a deep sea exploration mission. During which, they will conduct experiments, make observations, engineer needed tools, and imagine ways to further exploration. This resource will save you a lot of time as it includes a presentation and worksheet(s) for each unit. The presentations have been designed to draw students into a story of their adventure. This resource has been proven in

A hands-on investigation which includes presentations, teacher demonstrations, student activities, and laboratories. This will leave your kids wanting more science and the materials required are mostly inexpensive and easily obtained. With the bundle you will save 20%, so don't miss out!

This product contains a short presentation introducing spectrophotometry (PDF and Google Slides versions), presentation notes, and a lab which takes students through how to use the machine to evaluate concentration and identify molecules in solution.

A fun way to investigate light absorption - a short presentation and THREE LABS! This product includes a short, colorful presentation in both PDF and Google Slides forms (with notes for your reference). It also includes a lab book with three labs that students will love: gummy bear light experiment, painting with filtered light lab, and glow in the dark activity. It is a great addition to any lesson on light.

You students will be engaged and entertained with this fun classroom activity. With only PTC paper to purchase this lesson set is a low cost way to learn about our traits. In this lesson, students will learn the difference between a trait, phenotype, and genotype. They will also be introduced to the terms "quantitative" and "qualitative" - important concepts for any scientific investigation. The lesson will lead students through their traits - which they will mark down on their worksheets. After

Want students to be invested when investigating chemical reaction rates? This is a fantastic opportunity. In this resource you are provided: - A short lecture on reaction rates in chemical reactions and the factors that affect it - A lab for students to investigate the affect of concentration of reactants on the rate of reaction. The reaction used, called the 'Egyptian Night Reaction' or 'Iodine Clock', is fun to watch as it is colorful and captivating. - A teacher instruction worksheet on how t

In this short presentation and three part hands-on microscope lab students will review the cell. This has been designed as a transition into genetics - getting students to review their previous knowledge about cells and connect it to the molecule DNA. In the lab, students will check out cells of elodea (an aquatic plant), their own cheek cells (animal cells), and onion cells (which allow for some staining and visualization of the nucleus). Students will have a blast reviewing the cell and connec

Discovering the molecule of heredity was not something that happened overnight or by one scientist. This lesson leads students through a timeline of scientists that made key impacts to the investigation. The presentation is meant to be used alongside the hands-on labs (each time it is time to pause for a lab there is a divider slide with the lab name). Labs included: DNA extraction, Discovering nucleotides, Bacterial transformations, Paper chromatography, and Build a DNA model. Scientists includ

A great resource to include with an agricultural science section. You will get four presentations detailing the history of wool, the science behind wool processing, and the different breed of sheep. In addition, you will get the teacher notes to use along with the lectures. A great way to introduce hands-on projects like wool dyeing, carding, and spinning.

Ever wonder why electrolytes are always emphasized in sports drinks? In this resource you can introduce your students to electrolytes, give real-world examples of how ions work in the body, and test the conductivity of different solutions to drive the point home. This product is the the student lab workbook which pairs with the presentation "Conductivity and Electrolytes: Presentation". (You can purchase the workbook and lecture separately as PDFs or together as a Google Drive link) Note: You

With this resource you will get a presentation (PDF and Google Slides with lecture notes) and a lab workbook. The slides go over an introduction to titrations, acid-base reaction, redox reaction, vitamin C, and chemist Linus Pauling. Step away from the basic acid-base reaction for titration lab and give a real-world example. Students will test the vitamin C concentration in commercial fruit juices. Lab materials needed that need to be ordered online: 2,6-dichlorindophenol and ascorbic acid

Delve into the interesting history of how we discovered the science of light! Students get to learn about the people behind the history and how scientists build upon previous works. And how some scientific debates can get quite dramatic - like the arguments between Hooke and Newton regarding light. In this product, you get an in depth presentation regarding the full history of optics (the study of light) in both PDF and Google Slide forms (with notes for your reference). As well as an activity t

You cannot have a lesson plan on light without understanding how light is perceived. Students love hearing about how animals compare to each other - and this product fits the bill. It contains a 27 slide presentation (PDF and Google Slides versions available) to go in depth across the animal kingdom looking at how eyes compare. Also in the product is a lab worksheet with two activities that allow students a hands-on look at why there is an advantage to being binocular and how cats can see so wel
