Students get to create an animal and see if it is able to survive factors such as climate, overpopulation, the predator/prey relationship, and the role of humans in the environment. The game is meant for students grades 5-12 and allows up to 8 players to play at one time. The game is useful for teachers wanting to provide students with the opportunity to learn about biology and biodiversity in an interactive way. This hands-on game will allow students to learn about the characteristics that allow animals to adapt to their environments and what kind of impact humans have on their ability to adapt. The game includes the 18″ x 18″ game board, 28 survival factor game cards, one die, 100 blue tokens, four pencils, eight large game piece stands, a paper pad for drawing your own species to use as a game piece, “Species Attribute Forms” to use when creating each player’s animal, and the instructions for the game. intermediate junior senior https://omekaoise.library.utoronto.ca/files/original/ff867fc7431a5a3eed418459ce27a41d.jpg 87b3236eee72b4b8626833d1bae3e370 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On each of the plates, there are embossed patterns of one particular animal and the animal’s tracks. The plates feature 16 different kinds of woodland and domestic animals, including: deer, weasel, beaver, bobcat, rabbit, opossum, otter, mountain lion, squirrel, skunk, raccoon, duck, turkey, timber wolf, dog, and cat. The activity kit also contains an information sheet containing a concise set of instructions to use, and interesting facts about each animal in both English and French. In order to use the Animal Track Rubbing Plates, first secure a rubbing plate down on a flat surface using tape or other removable adhesive. Second, lay a sheet of white or coloured paper over the secured plate. Third, using a pencil, pencil crayon, crayon, or chalk, rub over the paper covering the plate until the shape and details of the tracks’ patterning becomes apparent. Aside from using the previously mentioned method, there are also other ways to use the rubbing plates in order to get different results! Try the finger painting method by covering the entire surface of the plate with paint, then press a sheet of paper over the top and pull it off. There are many ways to use and interact with the rubbing plates. Patterns created can be used for arts and crafts purposes, or as prompts to create illustrations and artworks. The rubbing plates not only act as a tool to learn about animal tracks, it also helps to cultivate interests in animal behaviour and habitats.

The <a>Human Ear Model</a> is a great way to introduce your students to the structures of the human body and the study of Audiology. The model offers students the chance to explore the inner structure of the ear in a hands-on, tactile way, while also providing an informative card that explains the different sections of the ear that students are seeing. The ear canal and internal workings of the ear are attached to a model of the outer ear, and the connections between what is on the outside and the inside are made clear. Your students will be all ears for this informative activity kit! This model would be a helpful addition to lessons about the senses and how they work, or a tool for older students studying biology. This kit is one of several here at OISE Library that explores the inner workings of the human body, some of which have been featured in <a href="http://wordpress.oise.utoronto.ca/librarynews/2015/12/23/featured-activity-kit-true-to-life-human-x-rays/">past activity kit posts</a>. intermediate junior models senior https://omekaoise.library.utoronto.ca/files/original/a8baf4b307c6b9ac4bf18daac466a243.jpg 9124872221f7c59c885b4cfb3c68bd88 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Human Eye Model is about 5 times life-size for hands-on exploration. It can be disassembled into 6 hand-painted parts: upper and lower half of the sclera, both choroids with iris, a retina, and cornea. The kit also includes a laminated key that identifies 18 numbered parts of the eye. The assembled model can be displayed on a removable base. The human eye model is an ideal teaching tool for students at the early high school level. intermediate junior models senior https://omekaoise.library.utoronto.ca/files/original/75af42de53efae845556507ae4f781d4.jpg 048bb534256ae7d80e4bfee82fe22007 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The kit includes six tree rounds, consisting of oak, basswood, walnut, ash, white pine, and red pine. Magnifying glasses, rulers, and push pins are also included to aid students in making observations about the tree rounds and identifying the individual tree species. Ideal for use in a secondary school Science or Environmental Science class, the kit includes both teacher and student guides that scaffolds students completion of the tree species identification activity. The kit’s focus on both species identification and climate markers means that it would easily fulfil Ontario Curriculum for Grade 9 and 10 Science which requires students to “analyse different sources of scientific data (e.g., lake cores, tree rings, fossils and preserved organisms, ice cores) for evidence of natural climate change and climate change influenced by human activity.” Teachers and teacher candidates planning lessons about trees and ecology might also be interested in the <a href="https://librarysearch.library.utoronto.ca/permalink/01UTORONTO_INST/14bjeso/alma991106576709206196">Conifers of Ontario: Notes for Teachers Identification Keys for Students</a> by W.A.

This 3-D double helix model can be put on display in class for reference throughout lessons on topics such as nucleotide structure, DNA structure, complementary base pairing, and genetic coding. The kit contains 12 base pairs, 2 single DNA strands (rubber straps), a metal base for the model to stand on, and a teacher’s guide. The teacher’s guide provides a brief description of background information on DNA and explains how the model should be assembled. It also provides suggested discussion questions, assessment activities, and cross-curricular connections related to the DNA model. The model and teacher’s guide is a great starting place for teachers to introduce the topic of DNA, and encourage a deeper understanding of its real-world connections. By using this model a teacher can provide their students with a visual reference tool for understanding DNA. intermediate models senior https://omekaoise.library.utoronto.ca/files/original/fcf4645752d42967f8971f76ad5ba5e2.jpg 7ed88d9de4a29c971fe037879faf8081 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
