In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners identify different plastics in a mystery bag. Learners discover that plastics are classified #1 through #7.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this activity, learners explore how the shapes, sizes, and distances of land masses appear differently on two different models of Earth: an icosahedron and a flat map.

In this activity, learners will turn an ordinary tray of sand into a desk-top garden for meditation.

In this activity, learners explore Charles' Law in a syringe.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

In this activity, learners make an astrolabe, a device used for measuring altitude, including the height of objects in the sky.

Learners observe two model atmospheres -- one with normal atmospheric composition and another with an elevated concentration of carbon dioxide.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

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

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

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

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.
