Polar Bear Glove
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how animal in cold areas stay warm.
Wolf Survival is Just a Roll Away
Source Institutions
In this simulation activity, learners will raise a pack of wolves under ten different conditions: without human interference and with human interference.
Chilean Sea Bass: Off the Menu
Source Institutions
In this data analysis activity, learners use data collected by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) to study Chilean sea bass populations.
Test Density with a Supersaturated Solution
Source Institutions
Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.
Power Up!
Source Institutions
In this online game, learners must purchase power plants for their city.
Avogadro's Bubbly Adventure
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners investigate the solubility of gas in water at different temperatures. This experiment will help learners determine if temperature affects solubility.
Plankton Feeding
Source Institutions
This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.
Using a Sundial
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 12 of the PDF), learners make a sundial (shadow clock) appropriate for their geographic location in the northern hemisphere and use it to tell time.
Styrofoam Traps
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use Styrofoam to collect organisms from a pond, estuary or marine environment and then examine what they have caught with a microscope.
Tweak Your Beak
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how different bird beaks work and discover what birds can eat based on their beak shape.
Tree Growth Investigation
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into tree growth rates.
Mosquito Life Cycle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a plastic emergence chamber (or use purchased "mini mosquito breeder") to observe and analyze the mosquito life cycle.
Biodiversity and Evolutionary Trees
Source Institutions
In this interactive activity, learners analyze seashells to explore phylogeny and evolution. Learners identify similar and dissimilar seashells to create a phylogenetic tree.
Wolf Limiting Factors
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners simulate a wolf and its habitat and observe what happens when the limiting factors change over time.
Coral Snapshots: Biodiversity in Marine Protected Areas
Source Institutions
In this data activity, learners analyze data from coral reef snapshots taken by scientists at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science.
Coverslip Traps
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use coverslips to collect organisms from a pond, estuary or marine environment and then examine what they have caught with a microscope.
Water "Digs" It!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate soil erosion. Learners set up a simulation to observe how water can change the land and move nutrients from one place to another.
The Best Dam Simulation Ever
Source Institutions
This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.
Globe at Night
Source Institutions
In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.
Coral Polyp
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will create their own coral polyps - the basis for a coral reef.
