Re: [DIYbio] Re: WANTED: bio-based STEM projects for kids

You could make a subtraction lesson out of replica plating a mix of bacteria (some with antibiotic resistance, some without) from normal media to antibiotic media. "If there are 100 colonies on the antibiotic-free plate, and 37 of them are not antibiotic resistant, how many will you find on the replica plate with antibiotic?")

This is a bit removed from addition/subtraction, but a recent DIYbio project I found is listed here and would be appropriate for kids of pretty much any age. It'll require some background info, but it's interesting nonetheless. http://diy-bio.com/diybio-projects/help-discover-new-antibiotics/
