Chemical Breath
Source Institutions
This is a chemistry lab activity about solutions (page 7 of the PDF). Learners see firsthand how chemicals in a solution can combine to form an entirely different substance.

Growing Food From Scraps
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore vegetative propagation while preparing food scraps to grow into plants.

Natural Buffers
Source Institutions
Learners use a universal indicator to test the amount of sodium hydroxide needed to change the pH of plain water compared with the amount needed to change the pH of gelatin.

Urine the Know
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 5 of the PDF, learners compare water with artificial urine to see how urinalysis works. Learners use urinalysis test strips to test for glucose and protein in the fake urine.

Make a Heart Valve
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a model of a one-way heart valve to investigate how a heart controls the direction of blood flow.

Why Circulate?
Source Institutions
In this activity related to the human circulatory system (on page 10 of the PDF), learners observe the dispersion of a drop of food coloring in water, draw conclusions about the movement of dissolved

Visualizing How the Vestibular System Works

Microbes are Everywhere
Source Institutions
In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

Demonstrating An Epidemic
Source Institutions
This experiment allows learners to experience a small scale "epidemic," demonstrating the ease with which disease organisms are spread, and enables learners to determine the originator of the "epidemi

Biochemistry Happens Inside of You!
Source Institutions
In this four-part activity, learners explore how the body works and the chemistry that happens inside living things.
