In this activity, learners plant seeds and watch them sprout and grow inside a CD case.

In this activity, learners keep track of how much paper the group uses in a week. Build awareness of paper waste, while strengthening measurement and estimation skills.

In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

In this activity, learners use information gathered from a variety of sources to design and make their own insect.

In this activity, learners will take a step back and learn the history of the land they live on, and the people who used to live on it.

This activity is a sensory experience that recreates the sounds of a pond at night.

In this activity on page 24, learners perform experiments to examine whether or not trash can float, blow around, or wash away.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

In this activity (on page 8), learners model how marble statues and buildings are affected by acid rain.

In this outdoor activity, learners make models of homes that might protect small animals from the elements, then search living plants for real structures made by small animals.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

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

This activity shows you how to make a mold terrarium using a jar and leftover food.

Many people get water from a source deep underground, called groundwater.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

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

In this activity (page 7 of pdf), learners research tide pool ecosystems, and then create brochures that "advertise" these environments.

In this activity, learners observe what happens when yeast cells are provided with a source of food (sugar). Red cabbage "juice" will serve as an indicator for the presence of carbon dioxide.

Learners blow into balloons and collect their breath--carbon dioxide gas (CO2). They then blow the CO2 from the balloon into a solution of acid-base indicator.

Build and test a scale model of a rainforest canopy walkway.
