Step by step guide 

You'll need a step by step guide to perform the experiment. You'll do this in de same groups. Use the article to make your guide as complete as possible. You should be able to take it to class and start right away (look at past labprotocols as examples). 

Once everyone is done, we'll compare lists and, together, create the ultimate step by step guide via Padlet.
