In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

How can you make one shade of gray look like two? By putting it against two different color backgrounds! This activity allows learners to perform this sleight of hand very easily.

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

This activity helps learners understand how the angle of the Sun affects temperatures around the globe.

In this activity, learners make three different "seed" types and determine which design flies the farthest.

In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Where's Nano? Activity) about identifying nanoscale objects and phenomena in today's world.

Through discussion and hands-on experimentation, learners examine the geological (ancient) carbon cycle.

Using a real-size sketch of a baby elephant's footprint, learners estimate, measure and record the width (diameter) and outside edge length (perimeter or circumference) of the footprint.

In this activity about food safety and nutrition, learners investigate safe food preparation by making fruit ice cream.

Learners develop awareness and understanding of the daily air quality using the Air Quality Index (AQI) listed in the newspaper or online.

In this activity, learners construct possible food webs for six different ecosystems as they learn about the roles of different kinds of living organisms.

In this activity, learners will plot the distribution of various oozes using information from sediment maps.

In this activity, learners discover that our hands are not reliable thermometers.

In this activity (on page 142 of the PDF), learners will compare breathing rates before and after hyperventilation to explore how reduced carbon dioxide levels in the blood lower the need to breathe.

This resource contains several mini-explorations using a slide projector as a light source to investigate light and the properties of images.

This lesson gives full instructions for making cabbage juice indicator, a procedure sheet for learners to record observations as they use the indicator to test materials, and extension activities to d

In this activity, learners participate in a simulated dig to discover fossilized dinosaur bones. Learners take notes, make a map and propose theories about dinosaurs.

Learners design their own experiment to determine conditions that either help or hinder the decomposition of carrots by soil microbes.
