Primary Consumer Energy Flow KitAs an alternative to measuring energy flow through primary productivity, students measure the transfer of energy at a higher trophic level and modify environmen-tal conditions to explore their effects on energy consumption. In this lab, Vanessa cardui (painted lady butterfly) larvae, representing a primary consumer, feed on a growth medium that represents a primary producer. Students investigate how efficiently developing butterflies convert food into body mass. They then analyze results, calculate efficiency, and build food chains by constructing ecological pyra-mids. The lab requires 10 to 15 days to complete. Kit provides materials for 30 students working in pairs. Visit Carolina.com for complete lists of kit materials.

Students burn coal, observe how the scrubber removes particulates and pol-lutants, measure the scrub-ber solution’s pH change, and measure the mass of solid pollutants removed by the scrubber. They then evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of wet scrub-bers, and answer questions about fossil fuel use and air pollution. The 8-Station Kit is designed for a class of 32 students working in 8 groups of 4. The 1-Station Kit is designed for 1 group of 4 stu-dents.

Inquiries in Science® Environmental Science SeriesGrades 9–12.

Inquiries in Science® is our exclusive series of hands-on kits specifically designed to help high school students understand abstract, hard-to-grasp science concepts. The series tracks well with most textbooks, and kit topics reflect state science standards and extensive educator input. Since Inquiries in Science® is modular, you can use the kits individually, as a strand, or as a series to teach environmental science.

The 5E Learning CycleField-tested in classrooms nationwide, Inquiries in Science® employs guided inquiry based on the 5E learn-ing cycle of engage, explore, explain, extend, and evaluate. This inquiry-based approach also promotes STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) practices. It enables students to:

• Consider a real-world question or problem

• Plan and conduct an investigation and gather data

• Understand the science concept by analyzing data and communicating findings

• Apply their findings to the original real-world question or problem and master the science concept

Inquiries in Science® helps students build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, and encourages creativity, collaboration, and teamwork. It creates an environment in which you and your students work together as active learners.

Inquiries in Science® Components• Kit—Includes lab supplies (enough for at least 30 students working in groups) plus teacher’s manual.• Kit Refill—Replenishes consumed materials. If it contains live or perishable materials, order the kit refill with the live/perishable materials included or with a prepaid coupon to request the live/perishables later at your convenience. Contact us or return the coupon at least 2 weeks prior to requested delivery date to ensure prompt arrival of materials.• Multi-Class Equipment Set—Includes extra lab supplies so you can use the kit in 1 additional class section per day. Note: You’ll also need to order an extra kit refill for each additional class section.

Carolina EcoKits®

Carolina EcoKits® activities are designed to help students investigate some of the interactions between and among organisms, environ-ments, and global earth systems. The activities, background information, and follow-up questions stress relevance. The sciences are integrated, and students use mathematics authentically to analyze their data. Our hope is that as students investigate ecological interac-tions through these activities, they will better understand their own interactions with the environment.

Cultivating Inquiring MindsThe Carolina EcoKits® series provides an investigative learning environment that encour-ages student inquiry. Using a hands-on approach, the series integrates relevant, timely topics with scientific discovery. Each kit focuses on important topics in these areas of environmental study:

• Populations and interactions

• Communities and ecosystems

• Impacts to global ecology

Designed for SuccessCarolina EcoKits® are easy to use, economically priced, and designed to save you time. Our series incorporates real-world applications that help students learn and comprehend how key ecological science concepts affect their lives.

181324 Carolina EcoKits: Oil Spill Bioremediation Kit

Carolina EcoKits®: Oil Spill BioremediationGrades 9–12. Allow your students to simulate bioremediation of marine oil spills using microorganisms that consume oil. In a controlled experiment, students apply a suspension of oil-degrading microbes to a small amount of oil and chemical indi-cator in a culture tube. A color change in the indicator signifies a breakdown in the oil’s chemical structure. Observations are recorded over a period of 4 days. Kit materials are sufficient for 32 students working in pairs. Kit Refill replenishes all the kit’s consumable items.181324 Kit Each $74.95181325 Kit Refill Each $16.10

Carolina EcoKits®: Endangered Species

• Learn about threatened or endangered plants and animals

• Identify threats that can lead to population decline

• Understand how various environmental factors and threats affect different species

Grades 9–12. Challenge your students to play Struggle for Survival, a game that helps them comprehend reasons why many organisms are in danger of extinction. This activity also helps define and explain what being “endangered” means for a species and allows students to identify threats that can lead to popu-lation decline. The 40 diverse species in the game include both well-known and relatively obscure plants and animals. Accomplish this activity in 1 class, and reuse it from year to year. It accommodates a class of up to 40 student players.187206 Per kit $78.95

187200 Carolina EcoKits: Climate Mechanisms

Carolina EcoKits®: Climate Mechanisms • Model the rotation of the earth and infer the effects on air currents

• Observe how the sun’s radiant energy is distributed unevenly across the earth’s surface

• Use convection fluid to demonstrate how air currents are affected by convection

Grades 9–12. Students use a model globe and convection fluid to simulate factors that affect climate, including rotation of the earth, the distribution of solar energy on the surface of the earth, and the Coriolis effect. Students fill small vials with convection fluid to simulate how convection affects the movement of air masses. Kit accommodates a class of 32 students working in 8 groups of 4.187200 Per kit $115.75

187110 Carolina EcoKits: Ecological Succession

Carolina EcoKits®: Ecological Succession• Observe the community succession of bacteria in aging milk

• Plate bacteria on agar plates using sterile technique

• Conduct Gram staining to distinguish between bacterial types

Grades 9–12. Students learn about ecological succession as they observe bacterial population changes in aging milk. Students study samples of aged milk and assess environmental changes by measuring the pH, then plate the milk on nutrient agar. After the bacteria grow, the colonies are Gram stained and colonies of different ages are compared. Kit accommodates 32 students working in 8 groups of 4. Note: Sold only to schools and businesses; cannot be shipped via USPS.187110 Per kit $129.75
