    Human Population Growth Lab - Spread of an Infectious Disease
    Free Student Handout
    Free Teacher Notes
     
     
    Lab
    In this human population growth lab, students simulate the exponential growth of an infectious disease in a population. Students then discuss how human diseases spread and their exponential and logistic growth curves. Lastly, students graph the simulated results.

  • Lab Experiment
    Food Chain Lab - Owl Pellets
    Free Student Handout
     
    Lab
    In this food chain lab, students dissect owl pellets to learn how the owl is part of a food chain. Since the owl regurgitates these compact pellets, owl pellets are undigested parts that the owl eats, which contain fur and bones of small rodents. Dry pellets will not smell and are acceptable for students to handle with gloves.
