In the explorable explanation players can learn how antibiotic resistance happens. They can interact with bacteria in this simulation to learn how when living things reproduce, there is a small amount of variance in their offspring. This allows organisms to respond to changes in their environment over several generations. Applied to bacteria, when they treated with antibiotics, only the strongest survive and multiply, creating an increasing resilient population.

The Menseki Meiro (Area Maze) is a great OER for working on transferring dimensions of rectangles and composite shapes. The problems increase in difficulty as students complete each puzzle in sequence. Incorrect answers do not show solutions, so students can rework the problem or move on to the next one. Teachers will want to emphasize that the images are not drawn proportionally (to scale) and that answers will be whole numbers. All mazes can be solved without using decimals or fractions. This does NOT mean that all box sides and areas must be whole numbers.
Use this as additional practice with understanding the relationship of dimensions and area of rectangles. Students should have strong understanding of decomposing and composing side lengths and multiplication of length and width to produce a specific area.
