Pollution Patrol
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

What's In Your Breath?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners test to see if carbon dioxide is present in the air we breathe in and out by using a detector made from red cabbage.

Build a Lung
Source Institutions
Most of the time, we don't have to think about breathing. In fact, you're probably breathing right now without thinking about it!

Engineer an Octopus Suction Pad
Source Institutions
In this engineering design challenge, learners build an octopus-inspired suction pad that can grab an object and hold it tightly in the air.

Lichen Looking
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners search for lichen, a combination of a fungus and an alga living together. Lichen grow where most other plants cannot, on rocks, the trunks of trees, logs and sand.
Pollution and Lung Health
Source Institutions
Learners will build a lung model to understand how their lungs and diaphragm work to make them breathe.

Do Cities Affect the Weather?
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

Beach Zonation
Source Institutions
In this outdoor, ocean-side activity, learners investigate the distribution of organisms in the upper region of the intertidal zone.

Seed Adaptations
Source Institutions
By participating in a seed scavenger hunt, learners examine many adaptations of seeds, including how many seeds a plant makes, how those seeds travel to new locations, and what protects them from pred

Super Soil
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners make their own organic-rich soil. Depending on where this activity is done, learners will probably discover that their local soil is low in organic matter.
