Learners measure irregularly shaped bones using a variety of measurement methods and tools. Then, they measure again using standard conventions and metric tape measures.

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

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most to learn about the different sizes of dinosaurs.

In this highly physical outdoor activity, learners construct and compare experimental trail sections to select the best trail-construction technique for their site.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

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 investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

In this activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity), learners will identify a group of deciduous trees to study.

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

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

In this activity, learners compare and contrast their own skin (including the area covered) with that of an orange.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners test exhaled breath for carbon dioxide and learn how to use an indicator as a simple way to measure pH.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into tree growth rates.

In this activity, learners observe the effect of transpiration as water is moved from the ground to the atmosphere.
