A comprehensive lesson exploring the stages of the cell cycle, focusing on the distinction between Interphase (G1, S, G2) and M-Phase. Students use a video guide and creative modeling to understand cellular growth and division.
A series of visual anchor charts designed for reference during laboratory investigations into plant vascular systems, photosynthesis, and transpiration.
A high-energy, movement-based review activity where students solve 'medical cases' by identifying body systems and their functions. This lesson includes task cards for a classroom scavenger hunt and a structured recording sheet for students.
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.
A middle school science lesson exploring neuroplasticity through medical recovery case studies. Students investigate how the brain 'reroutes' neural pathways after injury using adaptation and recovery strategies.
A 6th-8th grade science and health lesson exploring neuroplasticity through a hands-on yarn simulation and a video-based discussion. Students learn how neural pathways strengthen through use and dissolve through neglect.
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 lesson for 7th-8th grade science focusing on the biological and genetic foundations of autism. Students debunk common myths, analyze brain development through video, and research how the brain interacts with other body systems in co-occurring conditions.
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.
A high school biology lesson exploring the endocrine system's stress response via the HPA axis, the physiological role of cortisol, and the impact of chronic stress on brain structure and homeostasis. Students analyze feedback loops and the brain's neuroplasticity through video analysis and diagramming.
A comprehensive lesson exploring the evolution of hunting from ancient survival to modern conservation, including economic impacts and ethical debates surrounding biodiversity.
