Footprint—Student Activity Kit
Student Laboratory Kit
Demonstration Kit
A carbon footprint is the amount of green- house gases, primarily carbon dioxide, released by energy-dependent activities
and processes. In this activity, students will analyze data from utility bills, modes of trans- portation and everyday activity contributions. The relative contributions of their activities will be graphed to explore ways to reduce emissions and their carbon footprint. AP7322 | $10.75
Generate microscale quantities (50–60 mL) of carbon dioxide gas in syringes and observe the properties and reactions of the gas. Perform the classic limewater test for the detection of CO2, observe the acidic nature of the gas, watch the gas undergo a chemi- cal reaction and determine if carbon dioxide supports combustion of a candle flame. Students gain a hands-on understanding of the chemistry of carbon dioxide. Includes Teacher Notes, reproducible student handouts and all necessary chemicals and specialized materials.

What is the greenhouse effect? Set up model mini-greenhouses and demonstrate the principles of the greenhouse effect for your students. The results will serve as a launch pad for further research and discussion. The mini-greenhouse bottles, stopper and reflect- ing flags can be reused many times.

Weather Center
Create a weather station right in your class- room with these durable meteorological instruments! Measure barometric pressure, relative humidity and air temperature and record the trends, averages and highs and lows. Sturdy carrying case holds a 3" barom- eter, hygrometer and Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometer as well as three stands for using the instruments individually. Activity Guide included.

Carbon Cycle Adventure—Super Value Activity Kit
Students follow a carbon atom through the carbon cycle for insight into the ongoing process. The roll of a die at each “carbon cycle station” determines the next step: diffusing into water, being absorbed for photosynthesis or staying in place. Students learn about the mechanisms in carbon’s movement and then compare experiences and see that no two paths are alike!
