En esta tira cómica, Mateo y Cientina observan unas hormigas para contestar algunas preguntas: ¿Qué comen las hormigas?

In this activity, learners build an instrument for catching and observing flies. Learners act as entomologists, attract flies into a jar using a slice of apple, and then observe the flies' behavior.

In this activity, learners model a population of deer and see how the number of deer changes over time.

In this activity, learners start their own field journal to better understand the wildlife in their area.

Learners construct a bird feeder from re-used materials. After hanging their feeder, they keep a journal about what birds visit the feeder.

In this activity, learners simulate a wolf and its habitat and observe what happens when the limiting factors change over time.

This activity is intended to familiarize learners with native Houston birds, introduce learners to tools biologists use in the field, and to enhance their observation skills.

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

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

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 family or group inquiry activity, learners use their senses to explore a local forest or woodland.

In this activity, learners make their own bug boxes and test the habitat preference of selected "minibeasts" (bugs).

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

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

In this activity, learners observe hard parts of sea creatures (shells, molts, etc.) to better understand marine environments.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cactus Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into how some desert birds keep their cool.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Rabbits), learners will visit a zoo, aquarium, or pet store to view a variety of fish.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

In this design-based activity, learners explore environments, ecosystems, energy flow and organism interactions by creating a model biodome. Learners become engineers who create model ecosystems.
