Atoms are made of positively charged protons and neutral neutrons in the nucleus and negatively charged electrons that orbit the nucleus in electron shells. We can use the Periodic Table of Elements (ptable.com) to figure out how many of each subatomic molecule is located! The atomic # is the number of positive protons in the nucleus. That number is also usually equal to the number of negatively charged electrons that orbit the nucleus, faster than the speed of light! The number of electrons ca

Students demonstrate that they understand how energy and carbon flows through an ecosystem. They understand what energy storage molecules, like glucose, are and model them. They research their favorite organism and complete a food web research activity, cite sources, and complete a presentation. This project will take your students about a week to complete. Students can present in front of the class or dictate speaker notes for each slide by clicking "Ctrl+Shift+S." This is an excellent accommod

If you recognize the image in the thumbnail, you know what curriculum this task complements. The questions are related to metabolism. How do certain types of molecules get into individual cells? If this has been introduced to your students, through whatever curriculum you use, this task will be a fun one to share with your classes. The possible answers are numbered and as student type in the number that correlates with the correct response, an image appears to the right side. That image represen
