This fun and exciting lab allows students to work in teams of 3 or 4 to determine how changing the distance effects how a drop of blood falls. This lab provides practice with identifying variables and graphing as well as an interesting introduction to forensics. You will notice a rubber stamp icon on the lab sheet. My students know that this means that they must receive a rubber stamp of approval of their hypothesis from me before I will let them proceed with gathering their materials. I play ho

This very fun lab gives students practice with creating a hypothesis as well as determining variables in an experiment. Then students must convert their data into a graph. Practice collecting data, measuring and analyzing data is also accomplished. Be sure to test your brand of gummy bears first...some will just dissolve. You don't want those. CVS's Gold Emblem and Brach's brand work very well. :) If you like what you see and can use it with your students, PLEASE come back and leave me feedback

This lab drives home the importance of accurate record keeping, repetition & replication. Using inexpensive ingredients: borax, water, and white glue students will make slime. Students work in teams of 3-4, acting as a development team, this lab shows students a real-world application. Students will answer critical thinking lab questions after activity is completed.
