In this activity (on pages 19-24 of PDF), learners soak chicken bones or eggshells in vinegar for several days.

Capture soap bubble patterns on paper! In this activity, learners can create beautiful pictures from popping soap bubbles.

In this outdoor, freshwater activity, learners explore the behavior and food preferences of crawdads (or crabs) by "fishing" for them with various baits.

After learning that some of the chemicals we add to food crops may have harmful consequences on our health and the health of the environment, learners will create a pocket-sized card with their favori

In this activity exploring liquid dynamics, learners design and build a clay channel in a tray of water and then see what happens when food coloring and liquid soap are added to the mix.

In this activity (12th on the page), learners investigate their ability to discriminate (see) different colors.

This guide outlines how to plant a garden even if you don't have a yard!

In this math game (Page 15 of the Dining Out! PDF), learners figure discounts and/or profit increases for various food totals. Learners add decimals to $100.

The Ancient Egyptians used a naturally-occurring salt from the banks of the Nile River, called natron, to mummify their dead.

In this chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a layered drink with liquids of different densities.

In this activity, learners extract DNA from a strawberry and discover that DNA is in the food they eat.

In this activity, learners are challenged to eat some candy as a cell would need to as well as to think about some of the problems that arise when a cell ingests food.

In this activity, learners test different food items by timing how long it takes each liquid to slide from the top of a ramp to the bottom.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore how a surprising number of animals use human-made litter, such as cans and crumpled paper, to find food and shelter in their environment.

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Roller Coaster Design Activity), learners will use food cans of many different properties (sizes, shapes, and weights) and set two cans on their sides at

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Animal Scent Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into animal behavior.

Learners grow sugar crystals (rock candy). They make a hot solution that has an excess of sugar dissolved in it, then as the solution cools, they see sugar crystals form.

In this math lesson, learners identify and compare unit costs of given items. Learners use computation skills, problem solving and number sense to find the cost of an ounce of cereal.

In this introductory activity, learners discover that sugar and food coloring dissolve in water but neither dissolves in oil.

In this outdoor activity, learners find the swollen bumps known as "galls" on various plants and get a closeup look at the parasitic animals living inside.
