Digestion Connection—Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Students begin by discovering the inner workings of the stomach and its digestive capabilities. Then your students will love the challenge of designing a pill coating that can withstand the stomach’s harsh acidic environment! By applying relevant concerns, such as medicine degradation, students engage in a fun activity that integrates biological and engineering skills. Complete for 30 students working in pairs.

Kidney Function Model—Student
Students build a model of the nephron, the filtering unit of the kidney, and investi- gate its ability to filter various substances out of simulated blood. Simulated urine is analyzed using common urinalysis tests for color, clarity, pH, salt crystals and glucose. The results help students understand the importance of urinalysis as a vital tool in diagnosing physiological health conditions. Includes enough materials for 30 students working in pairs.

Biomimicry—Flinn STEM Design ChallengeTM
Explore how the form and function of many human products are modeled from attributes observed in the natural world. Students investigate one example of biomimicry—insulation that is based on how animals stay warm in a cold environ- ment. Then students make observations of their own, finding either current examples or new possibilities of biomimicry in the natural kingdom. Finally students use these concepts to design a practical application of the natural phenomenon they observed! Complete for 10 student groups.

Laboratory Kit
Simulated Urinalysis Kit—Student Laboratory Kit
Students test five different simulated urine samples for five different common urinalysis factors. Results are then compared. Preliminary indications about the health of the tested individuals are explored. Complete for 30 students working pairs. A Super Value Kit is also avail- able for 5 classes of 30 students working in pairs.
