Virtual Human Brain Dissection
This is a virtual dissection alternative that allows students to dissect a 3D human brain, record observations, answer analysis questions on the observations and label a sheep's brain with the synonymous human brain structures. The analysis questions are mixed formats between direct questions and critical thinking concluding questions. This activity can be completed completely online or printed out for in-person instruction. It is meant to serve as an alternative method to performing a dissectio

White Rat Dissection
The white rat dissection is the most anticipated activity in the science classroom. With its anatomy so closely resembling that of a human body, this lab allows students to identify key structures in the mammalian and vertebrate body. This editable document includes procedures along with guiding information for functions of specific organs. The checkpoints allow for students to verbally identify structures, as well as their functions.

Pig heart dissection guide
This is a comprehensive dissection guide of the pig heart, designed for a high school or early college Biology or Anatomy & Physiology class. Pig hearts are larger than the typically used sheep hearts, and better resemble the human heart structure.
The guide includes step-by-step instructions and labeled diagrams that will lead students through the external anatomy of the heart, followed by dissection of the internal structures.
In addition to description of structures, the relevant physio

Human Body Systems Bundle
This unit covers 5 of the human body systems: skeletal, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, and digestive. This product is intended for middle grades. It gives students a good overview of major body organs and how they work, but does not go into detail they will get at the high school level in anatomy. Check out the previews of each product to get a better look of what is included. Be sure to follow my TpT store by clicking on the green "follow me" next to my seller picture to receive notificati

Virtual Fetal Pig Dissection
This virtual pig dissection is an alternative for students who do not wish to participate in an actual dissection lab. It is also a good alternative if your budget doesn't allow the purchase of the specimens, since they can be quite expensive. I have also assigned this as make up work for students who were absent on the day of the dissection.

Make Your Own Lungs Model: Respiratory System Lab
This activity provides a hands-on learning experience that allows your students to make and then model their very own set of lungs. The procedure walks you step by step on how to create the lungs using the materials listed. This is a great way for students to have their own model of working lungs. At the end of the lesson, students can blow air through the top straw and fill the balloons to mimic air going into the lungs. Likewise, the balloon wrapped around the bottom can move up and down and c

Urinalysis Lab
Students will test synthetic urine to determine the disorder the "patient" is exhibiting. Instructions for making the synthetic urine and for the testing are included, and it uses common household and lab supplies. This lab is relatively easy to set up and accomplish, and students gain knowledge of the diagnostic tests for diseases.

This activity goes relies that students have adequate knowledge on the following systems in order to review properly:skeletal system muscular system cardiovascular system nervous system respiratory system digestive systemStudents begin by labeling a human skeleton and then adding the matching numbers to a pig's skeleton. Then, they do a similar activity with the muscular system. Stu

Action Potential Neuron Activity
Using the free PhET simulation, this activity helps guide students through the process of an action potential by focusing on the membrane of a neuron. This lab would be most appropriate for an high school Biology or Anatomy and Physiology course. The directions are geared towards students completing the assignment independently, however this could also be projected on a board and completed as a class too! The document is an editable word doc.

Muscle Fatigue lab activity
I use this lab when my students are learning about the muscles. It is a fun lab as long as your students don't get too rowdy. I only do an activity for 2-3 minutes. I explain to my students that this is NOT a contest- and there are no prizes that will be handed out for lasting the longest. For the hurting heart portion you could use tennis balls, stress balls, or students could clench and un-clench their fists. (We used stress balls shaped like hearts) We go through each question together after

4-Chambered Heart Dissection Guide
This dissection guide is for a 4-chambered heart. I've used it with both deer hearts and pig hearts. This resource includes the following items: 1) the dissection guide, intended to be printed front and back as a booklet, and 2) a dissection reflection for the students to complete after the dissection. The resource is a .docx (MS Word) file and is editable.

Bone Lab Anatomy Skeletal Lab
I ran this lab with my high school seniors and they loved it. This lab includes 9 Xrays that show different types of bone injuries. The students are given a synopsis of 9 different patients. They must match the patient to the bone injury as well as describe the break, the scientific name of the bone, and prescribe a treatment method. The packet includes some teacher tips, full pictures of the Xrays, and an answer key.

Taste Test Lab
Students will have a great time exploring their taste and scent senses with this lab! Teachers, you will need: jelly beans, skittles, goldfish and dark chocolate in order to have students complete the lab per these procedures.Students will have the opportunity to work in groups and determine what flavors they are tasting while blindfolded. Then, they will taste test as they close their nose, essentially blocking out their ability to smell. This will show them how scent is needed for tasting food

Reflexes & Reaction Time Lab Activities- Nervous System, Anat & Phys, no key
Updated 1/21/21!After feedback about how the lab was more about reaction time rather than reflexes, I re-vamped the lab to actually include reflexes, not just reaction time activities. These are all low-material things you can do with objects that can generally be found around the house. ------Part 1: Students test their reaction time using a ruler and a website (two different ways of testing the same idea). The website is fun- they have to tranquilize sheep. The only materials needed for Part 1

Lab activity- Blood typing
This lab activity has students solve a medical dilemma. A couple (the Chesterton's) have been in a car accident. They are fine, but their one year old baby is injured and needs a blood transfusion. Your students must act as doctors and determine the best course of action. After they determine the baby's blood type, they discover that the hospital is short on blood. (There haven't been enough donations recently.) Since blood types are inherited, they then determine the blood types of both parents

Virtual Spirometer Lab (Respiratory System)
Are you looking for a lab to do in your Respiratory System Unit? Often, there are minimum labs that are adapted and ready to teach students about how their lungs work and the tools we use to measure capacity. This lab is a completely virtual simulator that uses a spirometer and an automatic graphing system to create data. Students can set their own parameters to analyze and watch the data! There's even an option to save your data and export it to a new document for a lab report. The program is i

Sheep Brain Dissection Lab - Nervous System
This is a great lab activity for students learning about the brain and the nervous system. When doing this lab - I use sheep brains (purchased through a science catalog). The lab is setup as a "station" lab - with each station designed to cover a different section of the brain. If you don't have access to real preserved brains - you can use printout pictures as well! Topics covered include: Glands (pituitary), lobes of the brain, brain stem, nerves,and much more!
