Lesson Plans:
Where Can We Find
Bacteria?
Students will determine what kind of environmental conditions influence
bacterial growth
Bacteria
Most Wanted Poster
Students will research one bacterial pathogen and produce a "Wanted
Poster."
Petri-fied of Bacteria
This lesson allows students to examine the existence of bacteria all around
them and to consider the roles, both positive and negative, that bacteria
play. Over a period of several days, students conduct an experiment in
which they predict, determine, carefully log, and evaluate bacteria samples
taken from the school environment.
Protist
Lab - Microscope Investigation
Students will examine protists under the
microscope, see examples of different protist
types, and compare modes of locomotion.
Yeast Lab
Students will determine the best conditions to grow yeast.
Yeast and Balloons
Experiment with amounts of water and sugar to see how to get quick results
with this project!
Spore Print Lab
Students will identify the parts of a mushroom, observe the spores released
from different types of mushrooms, and understand the way fungi reproduce.
Water
Molds
To learn about a group of fungus-like organisms; the Oomycetes,
by baiting them from natural sources (water and soil) and observing them.
