In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

In this activity, learners discover that the Moon, like Earth, is made up of layers of different materials. Learners work in teams to make models of the interiors of the Moon and Earth.

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs) is a full inquiry investigation into decomposition.

It's difficult to see convection currents in any liquid that's undergoing a temperature change, but in this Exploratorium Science Snack, you can see the currents with the help of food coloring.

In this activity, learners make "solar cookies," edible models of the Sun's outer layers using sugar cookies and toppings.

In this activity, learners use gumdrops and toothpicks to model the composition and molecular structure of three greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapor (H2O) and methane (CH4).

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

In this design challenge, learners use their creativity and imagination to design and test a wildlife crossing for their favorite animal.

This activity (page 3 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs) is a full inquiry investigation into fossil hunting and identification.

In this activity, learners make their own solar oven to bake s'mores and learn about how solar energy is absorbed on Earth.

Learners follow directions to construct a solar oven that really cooks! The solar oven uses aluminum foil to reflect sunlight into a cooking chamber, which is painted black.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

In this activity, learners work in groups to design a parachute out of household items that keeps an egg secure when dropped from a certain height.
