How Does Photosynthesis Work?
This worksheet requires students to label the major events that happen in photosynthesis and write the equation. Students also label a chloroplast showing the light-dependent reaction with its reactants (water) and products (oxygen, ATP, NADPH.) The light-independent reaction is also shown to illustrate how ATP and NADPH are energy-carrying molecules that power…

Scientific Method – Answering Causal Questions
Examine a flow chart which considers a question about water evaporation; hypotheses are proposed to test the effects of air flow, light, and temperature.
-
Investigation: What Are the Processes of Science
Inquiry investigation where students develop hypotheses to answer a question about lung capacity, design an experiment, collect data, and draw conclusions.
-
Scientific Method Scenarios
students work in groups to develop an experiment that answers a question. Students design the experiment, and must also identify the a control group and the independent and dependent variables in their experiment.

Scientific Method and the Simpsons
NOTE: This is a new version of this activity, with new stories! Old Version: Scientific Method and the Simpsons This activity requires students to read stories where experiments were performed by members of the Simpson’s family. The stories are intended to be humorous. Students must identify the manipulated and responding variables (independent and dependent), the…
