Fish Guts! A Hands-On Lab Focused on Ocean Food Chains

DSC00121

This is one of my students’ favorite labs in science!  Who doesn’t love fish guts?  Students need a container of slime filled with the cut up pieces of plastic ocean animals.  The slime/creature mix is then placed into a rubber glove so it looks like a stomach.

fishgutpicThis pack includes everything you need to make your own fish guts and complete the lab!  It is a guaranteed hit with the students!  Click here for the link to the lab pack!

  1. I just purchased your challenges for the book Peak off of PayTeachers.com and I was wondering how to cite your work for my lesson plans. They are for a thematic unit in my Middle School curriculum class. There is not any data given to resource/cite. I want to give you the proper credit. Can you help me out?
