A high school biology lesson exploring the four main components of blood (plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets) and their critical roles in transport, immunity, and clotting.
A series of visual anchor charts designed for reference during laboratory investigations into plant vascular systems, photosynthesis, and transpiration.
A two-block exploration of animal systems, focusing on homeostasis, nutrient absorption, reproduction, and defense mechanisms.
A two-block investigation into plant tissue systems, vascular transport, reproductive adaptations, and environmental responses.
Students analyze the relationship between chemical structure, mode of delivery, and addiction potential using the 'Speed of Delivery' concept. The lesson features a comparative analysis of substances like heroin vs. morphine and vaping vs. nicotine patches to understand the biological 'why' behind addiction.
This lesson connects behavioral symptoms of schizoaffective disorder to neurotransmitter imbalances and explores the pharmacological mechanisms of antipsychotics and mood stabilizers through research and diagramming.
This lesson explores the dual approach to treating the five major anxiety disorders, focusing on the physiological mechanisms of medications (SSRIs, Benzos, Beta-blockers) and the cognitive-behavioral shifts of psychotherapy. Students will analyze the 'tandem' treatment model to understand why biological and psychological interventions are often used together for optimal patient outcomes.
Students investigate the intersection of neurobiology and external substances, analyzing how drugs and hormones alter neurotransmitter function to change a person's perception of reality.
A comprehensive biology lesson for 9th-10th grade students exploring the biological feedback loops between the endocrine and nervous systems during stress, focusing on the role of corticosteroids, the amygdala, and the prefrontal cortex in memory.
Bilan des acquis à travers une évaluation sommative permettant de vérifier la compréhension de l'énoncé du principe d'inertie et sa mise en œuvre dans des situations variées.
Application du principe d'inertie et de sa réciproque pour prédire ou expliquer le mouvement d'objets du quotidien. Consolidation via des exercices de synthèse.
Utilisation d'un simulateur numérique pour explorer l'effet de forces compensées ou non sur le mouvement d'un système. Introduction de la notion de forces qui se compensent.
Introduction historique au principe d'inertie à travers l'opposition entre Aristote et Galilée/Newton. Les élèves découvrent que le mouvement ne nécessite pas forcément une force pour être maintenu.
A high-level genetics lesson exploring how environmental factors like maternal care and stress trigger epigenetic modifications that influence gene expression across generations. Students analyze the classic Meaney rat study to understand the molecular mechanisms beyond DNA sequences.
A high school psychology lesson exploring the physiological impact of chronic stress on brain structures like the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex, featuring a video analysis and case study application.
