Clean up a messy greenhouse notebook and decide which notes can become useful scientific data.
Identify what a data table shows before choosing a graph.
Investigate a greenhouse mystery, separate observations from inferences, and revise explanations as new evidence appears.
Identify variables, control conditions, and design a fair pea-plant growth experiment.
Use claim, evidence, and reasoning to build a science explanation from real bean seed sprouting data.
Write and improve an experimental procedure so another scientist could repeat a bean-seedling fertilizer test the same way.
Prepare a lab bench, choose protective equipment, make safe decisions, and practice emergency response in an animated lab-safety simulation.
Investigate an urchin barren, map the food web, and test trophic cascades in a kelp forest simulator.
Trace one carbon atom into plant matter through models, maps, and a photosynthesis builder.
Build nucleotides, use base-pairing rules, and model how DNA copies itself.
Follow DNA instructions into RNA and proteins to see how cells build what they need.
Investigate why two purple-flowered parents can have a white-flowered offspring — through sorting, allele modeling, and a Punnett square build.
