<p>Students calculate and create a scale model of the solar system within 30 meters and then discuss the benefits and limitations of this model.</p>

<p>Students create a dichotomous key using 4 animals from the Northern Territory. They then read an excerpt about the Yolngu people and how they classify living organisms. They then create another dichotomous key using the excerpt and compare it to the original key they created.</p>

<p>Mendeleev created a deck of cards which contained the known elements of that time. He sorted these cards using mass and properties to create his initial version of the periodic table. Students model this part of history using 21 cards which can be organised into 7 groups and 3 periods (do not share this idea with them unless they are struggling). Group 8/18 is excluded because the nobel gases had not been discovered yet.</p> <p>There are also 2 unknown elements (Xa and Xb). Mendeleev left spaces for each and predicted their atomic masses and other chemical properties. Within 15 years, the “missing” elements were discovered, conforming to the basic characteristics Mendeleev had recorded. Students can use the mass of the elements to predict which they are. They are gallium and germanium.</p>

<p>Students complete a set of readings to practice reading for meaning. This content is related to climate change and its effects on agriculture. The students provide answers to literal questions (answers are within the text) and inferential questions (answers require extrapolation using prior knowledge).</p>

<p>Crime Scene Chromatography in the theme of the video game Among Us. Someone has killed yellow on the ship and left a ransom note. Tear one off and scratch my head. What once was red is now (black) instead. The killer is black.</p> <p>Use 4 different pens</p>

<p>Students use an open space and ping pong balls to model rate of reaction theory and how it can be affected by concentration, catalysts and surface area. A successful collision occurs when a student is hit with the ball. All three scenarios have an expected outcome, an explanation using rate of reaction theory and a comparison to expected observations from a practical experiment.</p>
