Every time I teach Biology I do the same exercise for levels of organization. I stack cups and have kids sort them from smallest to largest. (The cups were clearance items from Walmart years ago. I knew I’d use them every year.) After we discuss what the levels of organization mean. This exercise usually takes about 15 minutes. If a teen is confused about atoms and organelles, I can drag out the cups and review. Below is the inspiration photo, my cups, and a graphic posted recently to the National Biology Teachers’ group. In the graphic, the beginning is the ‘Big Bang!’ I love this! I tell kids I definitely believe in the ‘Big Bang!’ God spoke and bang! it happened. Take a look!
