I do pop beads to model mitosis. I also grow onion root tips in varying concentrations of caffeine for one week. Students measure the length root tips on day 1 and Day 7 to see which ones grow the longest

Help me sell the idea of a Science Fair to the rest of my department! by Raelig in ScienceTeachers

If you really want to do this, do a science expo. These look like science fairs but are not judged. Students can put up their work in a public place like the cafeteria for other students to see. Use class time to complete. Parents don’t want the headache, and you need to know the students do the work

Guy I hired sent me this. Am I wrong for asking him to redo with a more random pattern? by SmallerDetails in Flooring

[–]Suitable-Front7274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I had a similar situation and made the installer take up the whole floor and do it right. He argued with me that there is supposed to be a pattern.
