In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection by encouraging them to formulate questions that can be answered through scientific investi

In this weather activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will demonstrate the changes in atmospheric pressure by constructing their own barometer.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

In this activity, learners discover why only some types of plastic can be recycled.

In this activity, learners "go fishing," then practice ruler use and size/pattern comparison with the animals they catch.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity), learners will model how caves are formed by placing one piece of chalk in a cup of vinegar and another piece in a cup of water, then

In this outdoor simulation game, learners search for pretend animals called "sticklers" to determine and map where they live (habitat) and how spread out they are in that area (distribution).

In this activity, learners use chocolate to explore how the Sun transfers heat to the Earth through radiation.

In this online activity, learners discover how random variation influences biological evolution.

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

In this activity and/or demonstration, learners illustrate visually and physically that air has weight. Learners balance two equally-inflated balloons hanging from string on a yard stick.

En esta tira cómica, Mateo y Cientina observan unas hormigas para contestar algunas preguntas: ¿Qué comen las hormigas?

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.

In this creative outdoor activity, learners invent populations of make-believe organisms and then investigate real populations living in the activity site.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this activity, learners will investigate the impacts of harmful phytoplankton using NOAA's Coastal Services Center Harmful Algal Bloom Forecasting (HABF) Project data.
