In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

After learning that some of the chemicals we add to food crops may have harmful consequences on our health and the health of the environment, learners will create a pocket-sized card with their favori

In this simulation, learners model two elephant seal populations and how they change over time. Learners start with cards representing a variety of seals.

Through doing these hands-on activities, learners explore the environmental consequences associated with fossil fuel usage.

Learners will build a lung model to understand how their lungs and diaphragm work to make them breathe.

In this physical sciences activity, learners explore insulation. Leaners investigate how insulation can be used to slow down the conduction of heat from one side of a wall to the other.

In this activity, learners play a game that models what happens as stem cells differentiate into different cell types.

In this four-part activity, learners will discover the exciting world of light--the most important form of energy in our world--and be able to identify and describe different types of light.

In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners go on a nature walk outside and describe what they observe using their senses.

In this activity, learners will review the functions of basic digestive organs, understand how diet affects digestion, understand how digestive tracks may differ, and then step outside to compare the

In this activity, learners develop their understanding of combinations as they create as many different kinds of tostadas as possible.

In this math activity, learners play a probability game and try to be the first to get to the end of the game board path .This activity guide contains a material list, black line masters for the game

In this group activity, learners act out key stages of the "ocean carbon cycle" (also known as the "carbonate buffer system") through motions, rearranging blocks and team tasks.

This lesson plan revolves around studying the speciation of the Galápagos mockingbirds, which are on display at the California Academy of Sciences.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

In this team design challenge (page 2-10 of PDF), learners design and build a model of a Lunar Transport Rover that will carry equipment and people on the surface of the Moon.

Learners use a variety of beans to represent a variety of species, and scatter these beans over a large piece of paper representing the environment.

In this activity, learners work individually to assemble a product and then work in teams to design, construct, test, and redesign an assembly line process whose product must meet specific quality con

In this activity, learners experiment and collect data during a simulation of the fluid shifts experienced by astronauts' bodies in microgravity.

This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.
