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 test two jars containing hot water, one covered with plastic and one open, for changes in temperature.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

Learners take a field trip along a local body of water and conduct a visual survey to discover information about local land use and water quality.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this activity with several mini experiments, learners explore the chemistry that helps scientists learn about the environment and how they can help save it.
