Egg Osmosis: Modeling Selective Permeability

This 4-day lab requires students to create a selective permeability with an egg, and observe how hypo and hypertonic solutions direct the movement of water. This can done with a gummy bear for a shortened, more simplified lab.

Energy, Momentum and more!

Four activities that cover the main topics in a Work & Energy Unit! Perfect for unit culminating tasks and inquiry!
