In this activity, learners explore nonrenewable resources and learn why these resources are finite.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

In this activity, learners take on the role of a carbon atom and record which reservoirs in the carbon cycle they visit.

In this activity, learners use a microscope to examine three different microbes: bacteria, yeast and paramecia. Educator will need to prepare the yeast solution one day before the activity.

In this interactive game, learners listen to the songs of four different thrushes and then try to match each bird with its song.

In this activity, young learners (2 years and up) explore the world of insects and other "bugs" by Making a "bug hotel" with recycled objects.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this outdoor mapping activity, learners explore where plants grow and map plant-distribution patterns.

In this activity, learners simulate the energy transfer between the earth and space by using the light from a desk lamp desk lamp with an incandescent bulb and a stack of glass plates.

In this activity, learners will observe and record living things with in outlined outside space.

In this activity, learners explore how environmental engineers might approach solving the problem of an oil spill.

This display shows slow chemical reactions in colorful crystal formations known as Liesegang Rings. These reactions are similar to those forming the rings in agates.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has developed various means to remove impurities from water.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Lava Flow Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into the relationship between an object’s mass and the distance it is thrown by a catapult.

In this activity on page 5 of the PDF (Plants—The Green Machines), learners use chromatography to separate and identify pigments within various leaves.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners explore the 3Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) by rotating through several activity stations.

In this activity, learners use open inquiry to learn about the process of science as well as gain experience regarding the Law of Conservation of Mass, dissolution, and density.

In this activity, learners will build rainwater collectors to practice meteorology in their own backyard. Collect and analyze data to determine how much rainfall you get in a set period of time.

In this laboratory exercise, learners will discover how many different plant hosts they can find that are infected by the same genus of a powdery mildew fungus, or how many different genera of powdery
