Milk Lab - SafetyNo goggles or closed toe shoes necessaryApron – optionalBe careful not to spill milk or food coloring

on yourselfThe food coloring WILL stain

Milk Lab QuestionsWhat are the parts of the scientific method?How does this lab relate to the scientific

method?

How does it work?What macromolecules are found in whole

milk? (Hint: look at the nutrition label if you do not know).

Why did the detergent break the surface tension, but the food dye did not?

OwnershipHow can we demonstrate ownership in lab?

PRIDE pactWhat is the goal of this class?What do you need to be successful in this

class?How do you want the teacher to treat you?How do you want to treat one another?How do you want your peers to treat you?What happens when this treatment does not

occur? How should we treat one another when there is a conflict? What happens when we are not treated this way?
