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 nighttime, outdoor activity, learners keep a record of what they see in the sky by drawing constellations, the Moon, and making note of the weather and conditions each day.

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

In this engineering/design activity, learners make a kite, fly it, and then work to improve the design. Learners explore how their kite design variations affect flight.

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.

Some aquatic organisms live in open water, while some live in soil at the bottom of a body of water.

Millions of organisms can live in and around a body of water.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

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

In this activity, learners design and build a simple wind vane —one of the oldest kinds of weather tools— and use it to show wind direction.

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.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate organisms that live along the ocean's rocky coast.

In this activity, learners will build rainwater collectors to practice meteorology in their own backyard. Collect and analyze data to determine how much rainfall you get in a set period of time.

This lesson plan enables learners to explore the differences between weather and climate.

Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.

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 weather forecasting activity, learners use common materials to construct a rain gauge and measure daily, monthly, and yearly rainfall.
