This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

Learners create an Incan counting device called a quipu (pronounced kee-poo).

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

Learners examine what happens when a tube spins in two directions at once. They push on a cardboard tube causing it to spin along its length while at the same time turning from end-to-end.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design tire treads to increase safety and reliability.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the concept of inertia by attempting to run and stop quickly.

In this activity, learners draw natural objects to explore the details, differences, and similarities of natural objects.

In this activity, learners make edible T. rex teeth (with adult assistance). The treat is a white and dark chocolate covered banana on a stick.

In this activity, learners make mobiles to explore the concepts of balance, counterbalance, weight, and counterweight.

In this outdoor activity, learners play a game of Tag to discover how neurons attach themselves to each other to form a chain.

In this three-part math activity, learners explore shapes. In part one, learners identify, describe, and classify two-dimensional shapes.

In this activity about how the body regulates blood pressure (page 117 of the PDF), learners make and compare measurements of heart rate and blood pressure from three body positions: sitting, standing

In this archaeology activity, learners make observations and conduct an experiment to demonstrate the effect saltwater has on artifacts.

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

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 math game, learners toss plastic cups to land just right and collect points to win.

In this activity, learners explore the etymology of dinosaur names.

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

In this math lesson, learners are introduced to proportional reasoning through modeling, sharing, and questioning techniques.
