Balancing Act
This lesson aims to introduce the concept of equilibrium point by creating and revising a model.
This hands-on lesson encourages students to explore the concepts of equilibrium and balance while promoting consensus-building within their small groups. It encourages critical thinking, collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills, which are essential in the scientific process.
I use this lesson early in the year and refer back to it when creating force diagrams. It is a great introductory lab to start modeling consensus building in the classroom.

The students receive a sample population of "bears" and use the colors and ratios to determine the genotypes of the captive bears and their parents.
Phenomenal Forces and Motion is an amazing lesson which introduces students to the world of physics and Newton’s three laws of motion. Students will find out how some of the basic principles of
In this lesson students explore the relationship between pigmentation and light absorbance. Students will use a spectrophotometer to analyze pigment samples and record the absorption spectrum for
