Eggs Afloat
Students will dive into the fascinating world of parasitology as they collaborate in teams of three to analyze and evaluate the presence of parasites. The lesson aims to enhance both teamwork and practical laboratory skills while deepening students' understanding of parasitic detection methods.
Each team will be assigned the task of preparing detailed slides to examine fecal smears and conduct simple flotation tests. The students will follow laboratory protocols to create the slides using a specific pattern. The fecal smear and simple flotation techniques are important tools in identifying parasites within biological samples.

Students measure the temperature of water as it cools to learn about heat transfer and thermal properties while using line of best fit, linear regressions and/or quadratic regressions.
A lesson to teach students how to collect, organize, interpret data, make inferences, raise awareness, and suggest possible solutions on the water quality of the waterbodies in the state of Arizona.
This is the first lesson in a series of four that are designed to help guide students to design and implement their own independent STEM research project.
