In this hands-on art and science activity (page 4 of the pdf), learners brainstorm and discuss how humans use wetlands, then express their understanding of the subject in artwork.

In this hands-on art activity, learners will study and identify features of the external anatomy of a fish.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners first participate in a group discussion about where and when dinosaurs lived, how big they were, and who studies them and how.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners use art supplies to build models of insects, both real or imagined.

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

In this game, learners create flash cards with an image on one side (of an animal, for example) and the sound that animal makes on the other.

In this activity, learners investigate feeding relationships. Learners complete a food web and then make a mobile to represent a food chain.

In this activity, learners create their own bird species using arts and crafts materials. The bird call recordings are not online so the introduction activity can't be done, but everything else can.

This activity is a fun way to show two stages in a Monarch butterfly's life cycle. Learners will create an optical illusion that can be flipped from caterpillar to butterfly.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, learners create models of bugs. Learners use household materials like plastic cups and straws to create models of bugs like centipedes and spiders.

In this craft-based activity, learners make DNA sequence bracelets that carry the code of an organism such as a human, trout, chimpanzee or butterfly.

In this activity, learners build a cuica or chirping bird using straw, string, and a bottle cap. Use this activity to explore the interplay of motion and sound.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and experiment with different materials to create bug hats.

In this craft activity, learners will recognize, name, and compare the fractions 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 by constructing a penguin out of portions of paper circles.

In this activity on page 2 of the PDF, learners discover how color changes can help scientists distinguish between acids and bases.

In this activity, learners create a colorful bookmark using a super thin layer of nail polish on water. Learners discover that a thin film creates iridescent, rainbow colors.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF) has learners create models of butterfly wings.

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.
