In this activity (located on page 4 of PDF), learners gain insight into the actual size of dinosaurs and practice making estimations and measurements.

Using a real-size sketch of a baby elephant's footprint, learners estimate, measure and record the width (diameter) and outside edge length (perimeter or circumference) of the footprint.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most. Then, learners estimate the size of a Triceratops and T.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this experiment, pairs of learners explore how cold water affects circulation. The mammalian diving reflex (MDR) slows circulation when the body is exposed to cold water.

Use this hands-on activity to demonstrate infrared and thermal radiation.

In this activity, learners will explore how the human brain interprets environmental stimuli.

Learners take a field trip along a local body of water and conduct a visual survey to discover information about local land use and water quality.

In this outdoor biology and math activity, learners estimate the size of a population of organisms too numerous to count.

In this activity (on page 12 of the PDF), learners make a sundial (shadow clock) appropriate for their geographic location in the northern hemisphere and use it to tell time.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of sight and develop and conduct their own experiments.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Doghouse Design) is a full inquiry investigation into absorption and reflection of radiant energy.

In this activity, learners make a model of a pollution spill that occurred at Bangs Lake in Mississippi and measure water quality parameters in their model.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.
