Cemetery Lab
This is a lab that analyzes tombstones to compare how demographics have changed by comparing those who died in the first half of the 20th Century with those who died in the last half of the 20th Century. Ideally, this should be done in a cemetery (get permission first!). For rainy days, I am selling tombstone pictures so that this lab can be done in the auditorium or the classroom. This is a good lab for A.P. Environmental Science.

Cenozoic and Mesozoic Geologic Time-line data sheet
This is just the data and measurements needed to create a Geologic Time-line of the Cenozoic and Mesozoic Eras hands on lab activity using a cash register tape. This helps students visualize and experience the great period of time and events that have occurred in earth's long history. Even though this only covers the 2 most recent eras it demonstrates how closely spaced the recent events of history are when compared to the larger geologic eras.
I recommend buying my full Geologic Time-line Lab
