The Relationship Game
This interactive and educational game teaches students about the interconnection between plants, animals and their envi- ronment. A change in one organism can have drastic effects on another organism. Students use game cards to build relation- ship chains to learn how certain organisms are related to one another. The group with the longest chain wins!

Heredity and Environment—
Estimating Populations—
Student Laboratory Kit
Super Value Kit
Students investigate the age-old question of heredity vs. environment using albino tobacco seeds from heterozygous parents. Some seeds are germinated in light and others in the dark. Students must use data to defend heredity or environment. An excellent starting point for a more in-depth discussion!
Students capture individuals in a simulated population, “tag” them and release them and back into the population. After multiple trials, students mathematically predict the size of the population and then count the actual population to determine the reliabil- ity of the mark/recapture technique.

Survival Island—Super Value Kit
This simple and fun simulation illustrates that natural resources are limited and depleting them can be disastrous. The game-like simulation mimics the real Easter Island—the cata- strophic story of a small island off the Chilean coast. Survival Island has a finite area and resources. Once inhabited, the population grows rapidly and decisions about resource use become critical for survival.

Student Laboratory Kit
Witness a population explosion right in the classroom as students nurture and experiment with living duckweed plants. Students design their own experiments to determine factors that can affect the rate of the population explosion. Duckweed cultures are available separately.
