In this activity (on pages 22-24 of the PDF), learners match extreme enviroments with life forms they support.

In this activity, learners will examine various world data maps to combine the information and predict which areas could be tropical rainforests.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this activity, learners play an evolution card game to see how selective pressures can affect an organism's evolution.

In this activity (on pages 2-8), learners experience how scientists use classification in their study of animals.

In this multi-faceted game (on pages 25-35), learners recreate what happens to creatures in the Brazilian rain forest as they grow from egg to adult—especially those that use fallen, empty Brazil nut

In this activity on page 60, learners examine and simulate wildlife entanglement by experiencing what it might be like to be a marine animal trapped in debris.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF) has learners create models of butterfly wings.

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

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

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

In this activity (on the left side of page 5, continued on the right side of page 4 of the PDF), learners make models of colorful butterflies.

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.

In this matching game, learners study the limits of life on Earth to see what other places in the solar system might sustain microbial life.

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

In this simulation, learners explore how ocean currents spread all kinds of pollution—including oil spills, sewage, pesticides and factory waste—far beyond where the pollution originates.

Learners build a model of a pollution control device--a cyclone. A cyclone works by whirling the polluted air in a circle and accumulating particles on the edges of the container.

In this activity (page 2 of pdf), learners craft a model of a skate egg case and come to understand that cartilaginous fish such as sharks and shakes employ reproductive strategies that differ from th
