In this activity, learners model ancient lunar impacts using water balloons.

In this activity, learners create a sealed, mini ecosystem that supplies freshwater shrimp with food, oxygen, and waste processing for at least three months.

In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners locate and study plants and animals in several freshwater pond habitats.

In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

In this outdoor activity, learners race small boats, made of cork, balsa wood, popsicle sticks etc., to investigate the rate and direction of currents in a stream or creek.

In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

Learners place water and part of an antacid tablet in a film canister. The reaction creates a gas reaction that launches the film canister like a rocket.

In this activity, learners will test soil content using their sample, some water and a container that seals.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this outdoor/indoor activity, learners collect ants and dirt to create an ant farm in a cup that they can observe over time.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

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

In this outdoor game, learners role play predator and prey to explore the importance of keen hearing and silent stalking skills in the animal world.

In this wintertime outdoor activity, learners role play wolves tracking their prey by following scented trails.

In this activity (located at the bottom of the page), learners investigate soil and explore the creatures that live in it.

Learners build a simple solar oven from a shoebox, black construction paper, and aluminum foil. Over the course of a few hours, the oven heats up water enough to brew tea.

In this outdoor activity and bingo-like game, learners explore why and how seeds spread far from the plants that produce them.
