Soil Microbes
This lesson has an inquiry hands-on approach, students design a protocol to isolate microbes and test how efficient their method is by comparing with the class results. This is presented under the context of the antibiotic resistant problem. Students brainstorm, design and implement a protocol to isolate bacteria from soil. This can be a stand alone lesson or you can follow the series of lessons to further quantify, isolate, identify and test for antibiotic activity against tester strains.

In this lesson, students use the Kepler’s Laws PhET Simulation to collect data on the period and average radius of the planetary orbits. They graph and analyze that data to derive Kepler’s 3rd Law.
This lesson introduces the students to the different types of pigments found in plants. At the same time, this lesson plans will also introduce the students to the basics of spectrophotometry
Students will build a paper marble run out of recycled paper which maximizes the time of travel. Students will then analyze the run with energy diagrams and determine how much energy was lost.
