Moon Watch Flip Book!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners observe the moon each night for a month and draw their observations in a Moon Watch Log.

Identifying Erosion
Source Institutions
In this environmental science activity (page 3 of the PDF), leaners will identify and explain the causes of erosion.

Head in the Clouds
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a CloudSpotter wheel and record the different types of clouds they observe twice daily over several days.

How to View a Solar Eclipse
Source Institutions
This is an activity to do when there is a solar eclipse!

Trash Traits
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 24, learners perform experiments to examine whether or not trash can float, blow around, or wash away.

Egg Carton Nursery
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners will make their own flower seed nursery in an egg carton.

Weather Vane
Source Institutions
In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

Solar Cell Simulation
Source Institutions
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.

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

Erosion
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners model erosion using a clear shoebox and sand or soil.

Rain Machine (Solar Still)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.
River Catcher
Source Institutions
In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

Moon and Stars
Source Institutions
In this craft activity, learners create a string of cut-out moons and stars.

Reflective Solar Cooker
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use the Sun's energy to cook marshmallows. Learners construct the solar oven out of simple everyday materials.

Cook Food Using the Sun
Source Institutions
Learners build a solar oven from a cardboard pizza box, aluminum foil and plastic. Learners can use their oven to cook S'mores or other food in the sun.

Tabletop Biosphere
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a sealed, mini ecosystem that supplies freshwater shrimp with food, oxygen, and waste processing for at least three months.

Collect Invertebrates to Determine Water Quality
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

Floodplain Modeling
In this design-based lesson, learners study flood dynamics as they modify a riverbed with blockages or levees to simulate real-world scenarios.

The Shadow Knows I
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will measure the length of their shadow from the Sun and compare it three to four months later.

A Degrading Experience
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.
