My Project

In our unit about metabolic reactions, we investigate what happens when we loose weight and where the fat goes when it is burned. This investigation is traditionally done as a teacher demonstration, however I would like to change the dynamic of the investigation from a teacher demonstration to a student lab.

To accomplish this, we need enough large glass bowls to house the entire set up which includes a tea candle of vegetable oil, scale for measuring mass, and a carbon dioxide meter to track the gases when the system is burned for each group.

One of my many goals as a teacher is to get the students as hands on as possible. The additional materials will bring that personal experience to each student each year.
