In this activity, learners will go outside and create a constellation.

In this outdoor activity, learners will gather natural materials outside that they think a dinosaur would want to lay its eggs in.

In this activity, young learners go on a walk with caregivers and use their senses to observe nature with the help of scavenger hunt sheet.

In this sunny day, outdoor activity, learners observe changes in shadows over time. The activity also helps to develop a sense of the Earth's motion.

In this activity (located at the bottom of the page), learners investigate soil and explore the creatures that live in it.

In this activity, learners make pykrete by freezing a mixture of water and a material like cotton wool, grass, hair, shredded paper, wood chips, or sawdust.

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore evaporation by painting with water and tracing puddles. Learners will discover that wet things become dry as the water evaporates.

Learners observe different light sources, outdoors and indoors, using prism glasses (diffraction glasses) and color filters.

In this activity, learners will engineer their own weather vane. This activity includes step-by-step instructions with pictures and a "What's Happening?" section explaining how the activity worked.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

This hands-on astronomy activity lets learners hunt for different objects in the night sky that contribute to stellar and planetary formation, using a Treasure List.

In this activity, learners investigate soil conditions by creating a soil map. Learners record soil characteristics and compare the conditions of soil in different grid sections.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

In this activity, learners model the flow of energy from the sun as it enters a photovoltaic cell, moves along a wire and powers a load.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners set up a simple experiment to find out how sunscreen counteracts the effects of the sun.

This activity gets learners looking at 6-sided shapes in nature, including the cells of a beehive, as well as other shapes.

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

In this three part activity, learners explore and experiment with shadows to learn about the Sun's relative motion in the sky.

This fun hands-on astronomy activity uses a variety of simple props to help learners understand why they see what they see in a telescope.
