In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 5 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to compare how much energy is released as heat from two different foods.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 1 of PDF), learners observe and quantify the growth of yeast when it is given table sugar as a food source.

In this activity, learners observe what happens when yeast cells are provided with a source of food (sugar). Red cabbage "juice" will serve as an indicator for the presence of carbon dioxide.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

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

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 8 of PDF), learners estimate average daily baseline energy (Calorie) needs and energy needs for different levels of activity.

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

In this activity, learners build a model of a self-sustaining habitat (growing grass and beans from seeds).

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this activity about combustion and energy, learners observe a burning candle in a sealed jar and the burning of white sugar.

In this activity, learners use a microscope to examine three different microbes: bacteria, yeast and paramecia. Educator will need to prepare the yeast solution one day before the activity.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners investigate the solubility of gas in water at different temperatures. This experiment will help learners determine if temperature affects solubility.

In this laboratory activity, learners design an experiment to evaluate how environmental factors influence the growth of molds.
