A unit exploring the microscopic machines that keep living things running, from building cells to breaking down food.
A comprehensive high school biology unit covering plant and animal systems, focusing on structure, transport, reproduction, and response through anchoring phenomena and hands-on labs.
A high school biology sequence focused on the neuroscience of addiction, specifically analyzing how chemical structure and speed of delivery influence the brain's reward system. Students explore the biological mechanisms of tolerance, dependence, and the blood-brain barrier through graphing and comparative analysis.
A specialized AP Biology unit exploring the intersection of neuroscience and psychology, focusing on the biological mechanisms of mental health disorders and the pharmacology of their treatments.
A high school biology lesson sequence exploring the biological basis of perception, focused on how external substances and chemical imbalances alter neurotransmitters to cause psychosis and hallucinations.
Cette séquence de 4 séances de 45 minutes explore le principe d'inertie pour les élèves de seconde. Elle combine histoire des sciences, simulations numériques et résolution de problèmes pour comprendre la relation entre forces et mouvement.
A comprehensive unit on the fundamentals of forensic science and criminal investigation, culminating in a hands-on murder mystery simulation. Students learn about evidence collection, witness psychology, and deductive reasoning.
A series of lessons exploring genetics and protein synthesis through the lens of spider silk production for medical use. Adapted for 3rd-grade reading levels while maintaining 6th-grade science concepts.
A comprehensive 5-week sequence exploring the physical properties of water, the engineering of water filtration, and the complex systems of Virginia's watersheds. Students move from hands-on engineering to chemical properties and finally to large-scale environmental systems.
Une séquence de 6ème pour découvrir la cellule à travers des observations microscopiques, passant des végétaux aux animaux puis aux unicellulaires.
A comprehensive project-based learning unit where high school students apply design thinking to solve real-world problems, from initial discovery to final prototyping and pitching.
A comprehensive one-week unit covering the foundations of cell theory, the technical mastery of microscopes, and the fascinating structures of unicellular organisms (Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena, and Volvox).
A high-engagement sequence on plant systems (Reproduction, Transport, and Response) designed for talkative students. It uses collaborative, discussion-based activities to channel social energy into scientific inquiry.
