While there's little doubt that hands-on labs are an amazing tool for learning, they aren't always feasible. Whether your students are distance-learning, homeschooling, or taking live classes, virtual labs and simulations are a wonderful supplement.

Learn how DNA has shaped your family by constructing a family pedigree. Use your phenotype (your observable traits) to determine your genotype (what genes you carry). There are many traits you could use for your pedigree including eye color, earlobe attachment, handedness, hairline, hitchhiker's thumb, and many more.

When we think about ways to prevent getting sick, it's easy to overlook the simplest thing we can do: washing our hands. Studies have shown that washing our hands well is the single best thing we can do to prevent spreading illnesses. How do we get the message across to our kids? Here are some fun, simple, hands-on activities that will prove to your students just how dirty their hands are and the importance of good hand hygiene. Teaching Stem, Hands On Activities

Nothing says Spring has arrived more than robins building their nests and laying their eggs. In this unit study, we will explore facts about the American Robin, learn how they choose a mate, build a nest, and take care of their young. Along the way, we will explore the characteristics of birds that set them apart from other animals. Lots of videos, links to learn more, resources, and ideas for hands-on learning.

While hands-on labs and experiments are an incredible tool for helping students understand high school science, they are not always feasible. Technology to the rescue! There is a wealth of amazing virtual labs and simulations for high school science. Here are my top picks for the best virtual labs and simulations for high school biology, chemistry, and physics/physical science.

What do you think of when you hear the word dissection? Do you feel a bit queasy? If so, you’re not alone. Many parents list dissections as one of the things they most dread about homeschooling high school. Fortunately, there are some great alternatives to dissections including video dissections, virtual dissections, dissections of synthetic specimens, and creating 3-D dissection models.

Think fungi are boring? Think again! From their necessary roles as decomposers to their use in scientific research and industry, life wouldn't the same without fungi! Let's not forget the role fungi play in drug development (our first antibiotic came from a fungus!) or the Wood-Wide-Web.

Anytime your extended family gathers you can explore how DNA has shaped your family by creating a family pedigree of a genetic trait. There are so many genetic traits you could choose for your pedigree from physical characteristics (hair color, dimples, right/left handedness) to sun sneezing or the ability to taste PTC. It's amazing all that you can learn from this simple (and fun) hands-on science activity. You can even "peek" inside your genes to learn what alleles you carry!

No one wants to get sick. As we look for ways to prevent illness, it's easy to neglect the single most important thing we can do to stay well: washing our hands. Learn why hand washing is so important and how easy it is to prove to your kids why they should wash their hands. These simple hands-on activities are incredibly effective at showing how "germy" our hands are and why hand washing is vital to staying well.
