In this virtual reality frog dissection, students get to explore the anatomy of a female frog inside and out. The frog’s respective organs are scientifically accurate models to scale, allowing

This lesson incorporates Math, Science and Reading standards into a pumpkin themed third grade lesson. Students will use a mentor text to relate to the life cycle of a pumpkin, create, compare and

This lesson provides the students an opportunity to learn hands-on. They work as a worm biologist or Annelidologist, observing how the external features of the worm, such as its segmented body and

A look at 3 different injuries and the different systems that are affected and the math behind the functions of the body and medical interventions.

On Day 3, students take their journey to the next level. After gaining insights into plant life cycles and the crucial role of pollinators in the first two days, they now get hands-on and creative. In

Students will be divided into 6 groups, one for each of the major systems in the human body, and create a presentation to share with the rest of the class.

Day 2 of this lesson plan for 1st-grade students plays a crucial role in bridging theoretical understanding with hands-on experience. It deepens students' knowledge of pollination, emphasizing the

In Day 1 (of 3) of our exciting journey, students embark on a captivating exploration of the natural world, delving into the mysteries of plant life cycles and the essential role that bees play in

Lesson Description: In this first-grade lesson, we will learn about the amazing world of spiders! We'll start by exploring the life cycle of a spider, from when it hatches to how it grows and changes

By exploring seeds and the effects of different planting patterns/depths on seed germination, students will conduct exploration of varying seed depths in soil and keep track of growth and traits over

This lesson helps kids have an understanding of how our eyes capture light. A camera captures pictures of objects using a similar way so in this experiment, kids will be making a camera using simple

In this lesson, students will learn about the Life Cycle of a Plant and what plants need to survive. Students will demonstrate their understanding of the cycle by completing a Life Cycle worksheet

Fecal Transplant Exploration is a 2 day lesson that involves science, engineering, and writing. Students will gather background information on bacteria. Learn about fecal transplants, then create

This lesson is part of a project to isolate bacteria from soil and test it for antibiotic activity. This can be the start of the project or you can do lesson 1 soil microbes first. Though you do have

Students will experiment with light on plants to explain photosynthesis

Students will learn to differentiate between plant and animal cells and their functions. Students will also begin a project of growing plants for an experiment with photosynthesis.

3D Science lesson about the structure and function of plant leaves, and how plants convert light energy into food energy.

This lesson allows students to work in teams to determine the specific function of an organelle in the cell. Rather than having students try and memorize the function of each organelle, the focus is

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

How could a zombie outbreak happen? In this lab, students will observe how quickly an unknown disease can spread by mixing water from a cup with their peers' water. Contaminated students have iodine

Students will develop a model of a city and have it be protected from "the clickers".

This lesson provides an overview of the differences between living and nonliving things. Students will be asked to compare and contrast living and nonliving things and describe the characteristics of

This is a lesson that engages students to critically read informational text, construct an argument with evidence, and engage in academic discourse about the nature, living or non-living, of viruses

In this lesson, students will collect flower and leaf samples from around their school campus and return to the lab to conduct chromatography to separate pigments in their samples. Students will learn
