Chapter 15 The Science of Looking Good | ||
| Sun & Skin | ||
| Students discuss what they already know about the impact sun exposure has on their skin and what they typically do to protect themselves, if anything. Using a number of on-line resources, they will then learn about caring for their skin, the damaging effects of sunburns and tanning, and how sunscreens provide protection. ( http://www.sciencenetlinks.com/lessons.cfm?DocID=422 ) |
||
| ||
| ||
| ||
| Don't Burn, Baby, Burn! | ||
| Students consider products that provide protection from sunburn and other negative effects of the sun's ultraviolet rays. They then develop or improve upon sun-screening products that are meant to provide protection. ( http://www.nytimes.com/learning/teachers/lessons/20010619tuesday.html ) |
