Science Fair: Bacteria Experiment for Science Fair or In Class: Turn your students into real scientists with this long term experiment which teaches scientific literacy through the writing of a real scientific paper. This product is an editable guided walk-through for the completion of a full scientific paper (Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, Works Cited) based on the question: "Which antibacterial chemical: ethyl alcohol (hand sanitizer), isopropyl (rubbing alcohol), or Triclosan (Antibacterial soap) is the most effective at inhibiting bacterial growth? This product contains: 1. A teachers guide: Descriptions on how to set-up the experiment, materials needed, procedures, and helpful tips. 2. A lesson on Analyzing a Scientific paper utilizing a graphic organizer (Scientific Paper Included) 3. Student pages: a guided walk-through taking the students through the process of writing a full scientific paper. This long term project (which takes about 2-3 months to complete, spread out intermittently) guides students through the process of writing a scientific paper in the same way scientists write their scholarly papers. Students are taught how to write an Abstract, Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and works cited section. This guided walk-through covers the following topics: Abstract: * Explanations of what goes in an introduction - What the study was about & the hypothesis - Summary of how the study was done - The results that were obtained - Significance of the results including the hypothesis being supported or not supported Introduction: * Explanations of what goes in an introduction - What bacteria colonies are and what they look like (color, size,shape texture, etc.) - What Fungal colonies are and what they look like - The Cellular processes by which ethyl alcohol, isopropyl, and triclosan work to kill bacteria Methods: * Teacher notes and tips for conducting the experiment Results: * Instructions for: - Calculating the average number of bacterial colonies - Graphing the data - Interpreting the data graph in words - Describing the appearance of bacterial and fungal colonies Discussion: * Instructions for: - Calculating the data to see if they are statistically significant - Interpreting the significance of the data - Calculating Percent effectiveness - Supporting or not supporting the hypothesis - Creating a theory to explain the results - Creating an additional experiment that could be done to test the theory - Discussing issues that occurred during in the experiment

Scientific Method: This scientific method lab experiment has students answering the question: "How does soap affect how many drops of water a penny can hold?" This lab incorporates the topics of cohesion and surface tension into the lab and post lab questions. This scientific method lab experiment is one of my students favorites as it has them compete to see who can get the most water droplets on a penny. Not to mention getting the students interested in science.

Cereal Lab Experiment: This lab experiment doesn't just extract the iron from cereal, students will compare the amount of iron they extract to the amount Total says there should be! There are three pages to this lab: 1. Introduction: which includes: * Discusses elements, compounds & mixtures * What iron is found in (foods) * Why iron is needed for a healthy diet * What can happen if the body doesn’t get enough iron * Why iron is added to food 2. Procedure and Lab questions: which include: * Students calculate how many grams of iron is in a single serving of Total, and then the entire box * Students calculate the difference between their expected and experimental results. 3. A page of notes for you: which includes: * Helpful tips for successful results * A couple of tips you need to know before buying this product: ** You will need a strong magnet (preferably a neodymium magnet the size of at least a quarter) ** You will need an electronic scale that can measure up to the 100ths place. Students really enjoy this lab, as they can actually see the iron pulled from the Cereal.
