Essential Question: Why are certain substances such important supports for life? Learning Goal: Investigate patterns of how the elements and macromolecules might be structured to contribute to life in space. Do Now: Get out your notebooks and find a partner to share and explain the model you drew for how we might explore for life outside our planet. NEXT: What questions have we already decided we could answer? As a class, read, "Finding Life by Looking for Molecules in Outer Space."
LESSON 2
MOLECULE STATIONS First - Let's do one together using See Think Wonder: Phospholipid - see the slides Use your Lesson 2 Activity Sheet to move from station to station to get information. At each station, you will find a molecule that is important to life. Using the models at each station, fill out the table on your activity sheet to determine the presence of common features between these molecules.
Notebooks back on the shelf. Ticket out: Tell me your muddiest point (greatest confusion) from today.
