This activity teaches combustion as the interaction of a fuel source and oxygen.

In this math lesson, learners apply the concepts of ratio and proportion to the capture-recapture statistical procedure.

Learners explore capillary action in plants (such as plants ability to move water from roots to leaves) in an investigation called Paper Blooms.

This activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity) is a full inquiry investigation to determine the age of fossils based on where they are discovered.

In this genetics activity, learners create imaginary creatures known as "Reebops" to explore the relationships between genes and inherited traits.

Learners use a simple process to extract DNA from strawberries.

This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.

In this classic activity, learners investigate natural selection by becoming birds foraging for food on an island.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

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.
