In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

In this outdoor activity, learners construct bird feeders and set them up at to investigate bird behavior for one or two weeks. Multiple feeder designs are suggested.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

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