In this activity, learners listen to a story and tell a story of their own as they learn about the importance of elders in Native American cultures.

This activity has three story puzzles learners can solve to learn about life in the Arctic.

In this math activity, learners use gingerbread cookies to collect and organize simple data. First, learners read "The Gingerbread Boy" by Paul Galdone.

Learners complete a series of hands-on and investigative activities to explore cumulus clouds.

In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

This activity introduces the idea of "divide and conquer" using a fictitious but serious problem--a pair of dirty socks has accidentally been wrapped in one of the presents that Santa is about to deli

Learners drop two different masses of play dough and observe how long it takes them to hit the ground.

This activity attempts to clear up the common misconception that deserts are always hot, totally dry, and uninhabitable.

In this math lesson, learners play two different games to help them understand coordinates. First, learners read the book, "The Fly on the Ceiling," by Julie Glass.

These math posters have questions written on them, such as: How many colors can you name in a minute? or How many seconds can you balance on one foot?

On the first night, I saw 5 stars in the desert. On the second night, I saw 10… What do you think I saw on the third night? Combine arts and crafts, literacy, and math by making a counting book.
