In this activity, learners use information gathered from a variety of sources to design and make their own insect.

In this activity, learners build a mini crank machine to make a bird "fly." This engineering activity introduces learners to automata, rotational motion, cranks and cams.

In this activity, learners explore the gait of horses by constructing flipbooks with British photographer Eadweard Muybridge's famous photographs.

This PDF contains 12 calendars (12 months). Each month contains activities about math. Things to do on familiar holidays (like July 4), less common holidays (like Backward Day), and any day.

In this activity, learners build a figure that moves and "comes to life" when they pull its string.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity), learners will study the adaptations different fish species have developed to survive in their habitats.

Este Web site contiene links a 12 calendarios (12 meses). Cada mes contiene actividades sobre matemáticas.

Use the Zoo Calendar (page 1 of PDF) to involve learners in interdisciplinary, whole language, and writing activities about ecological concepts.

In this two-part activity, learners investigate buoyancy, density and surface area as well as biodiversity and the relationship between the structure and function of organisms.

This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

In this design challenge activity, learners explore the concept of biomimicry by using a natural organism's special features to design a new human object.

In this activity, learners will explore nature by creating food for birds. Learners will develop fine motor skills and engage in nature observation through this activity.

In this activity, learners construct bug models that "jitter" all over the table with just a battery, motor, and counterweight.

In this math lesson, learners play two different games to help them understand coordinates. First, learners read the book, "The Fly on the Ceiling," by Julie Glass.

This design challenge is an open-ended exploration of linkages, a group of parts connected by hinges, and the types of motion they can create.

In this activity, learners learn about the adaptations that flowers have developed which support pollination. Learners also list their personal preferences (i.e.

In this activity about problem-solving, learners build a house for the Three Little Pigs using twenty straws and two index cards.

This outdoor activity/field trip requires a place where minnows swim, such as a local pond or brook.

The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

In this activity, learners use maps to locate the Arctic region and use a word game to discover the types of resource people need to survive in the extreme climate.
