Jellyfish eequalsmcq - The Lab of Mister Q - Homeschool Science and other Education Resources Le ciel dans un verre, activités scientifiques pour les enfants. Globule s'interroge... Pourquoi le ciel est bleu? Demandez aux enfants de vous dire pourquoi, d’après eux, le ciel est bleu. Un verre ou autre contenant transparent avec des côtés droitsDe l’eau (1 à 2 tasses)Du lait (½ à 1 cuillère à thé)Une lampe de poche Remplis le verre environ aux ¾ d’eau.Ajoutes-y le lait et brasse bien.Pour cette expérience, tu devras utiliser ton imagination. La lumière blanche de la lampe de poche est en fait une combinaison de toutes les couleurs de lumière. C’est le même principe dans l’air, sauf que la lumière du soleil frappe des particules de poussière. Angélique Boissonneault

Lesson Plans (ABC Science) Lesson Plans Making waves Make a cool wave animation and, in the process, learn about the ebb and flow of the surf. Taste illusion It is said first impressions matter, but are they always correct? Food, exercise and energy Students use nutrition information to calculate the number of teaspoons of fat and sugar in their favourite food and drinks. Flipping coins Flipping a coin one hundred times might sound mundane but it always produces truly astonishing results. Explore more Lesson Plans Rotocopters Students use balloons, plastic cups and sticky tape to construct their own Rotocopters. DIY lava lamp Students make a simple yet spectacular lava lamp. DIY pH indicator The natural pH indicator present in red cabbage leaves are extracted in a whole class demonstration. Cool Colour Students predict how food dyes from four chocolate buttons will mix in water. Will it float? Will it float is a surprisingly contagious and fun educational game you can play every day.

Digestive System | Everything You Need to Know, Including Pictures [Continued from above] . . . but do not have food pass through them. Accessory organs of the digestive system include the teeth, tongue, salivary glands, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. To achieve the goal of providing energy and nutrients to the body, six major functions take place in the digestive system: IngestionSecretionMixing and movementDigestionAbsorptionExcretion Mouth Food begins its journey through the digestive system in the mouth, also known as the oral cavity. Teeth. PharynxThe pharynx, or throat, is a funnel-shaped tube connected to the posterior end of the mouth. EsophagusThe esophagus is a muscular tube connecting the pharynx to the stomach that is part of the upper gastrointestinal tract. esophageal sphincter or cardiac sphincter. Stomach The stomach is a muscular sac that is located on the left side of the abdominal cavity, just inferior to the diaphragm. PancreasThe pancreas is a large gland located just inferior and posterior to the stomach. Swallowing.

Biodiversity and linguistic diversity Biodiversity and linguistic diversity Maintaining indigenous languages, conserving biodiversity While it is widely acknowledged that the degradation of the natural environment, in particular traditional habitats, entails a loss of cultural and linguistic diversity, new studies suggest that language loss, in its turn, has a negative impact on biodiversity conservation. There is a fundamental linkage between language and traditional knowledge (TK) related to biodiversity. Local and indigenous communities have elaborated complex classification systems for the natural world, reflecting a deep understanding of their local environment. ©DiscoveryTraditional fisherman in Guatemala. Ethnobotanists and ethnobiologists recognize the importance of indigenous names, folk taxonomies and oral traditions to the success of initiatives related to endangered species recovery and restoration activities.
