This is an activity about discovering the colors and beauty of nature. Learners will spend time outdoors, matching paint chip samples, colored paper, or colors of clothing to those found in nature.

In this activity, learners will take a walk with their family and incorporate a scavenger hunt. They will explore topics like ABC’s, numbers, colors, and shapes as they search for related items.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Biodiversity Activity), learners will pair up and take a notebook outdoors to a selected location to observe and record a list of living things that t

In this outdoor activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Baseball Activity), learners will investigate the transfer of energy using sports equipment.

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

In this activity, learners walk the sides and interior angles of various polygons drawn on the playground. As they do so, learners practice rotating clockwise 180° and 360°.

In this activity, learners use their feet to estimate distances. Learners calculate the distance of one step in centimeters by measuring 10 steps at a time to reduce measurement error.

In this math activity, learners use non-standard measurement (paces) to find the distance from one point to another. Learners practice estimating and measuring distances .

In this math activity, learners jump and measure how far they can jump on different surfaces using different jumping techniques.

In this geometry activity, learners explore networks painted on playgrounds, such as a four square court, and draw their own.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook

In this activity, learners explore and experiment how we can use our bodies everyday to get from one place to another.

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

In this activity, learners work in teams to study the observation skills essential to scientific research.

In this engineering activity, learners examine bicycle mechanics and gear ratios. Learners determine which gears will help them bike a set course in the shortest amount of time.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

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

In this activity, learners make a scale model of the Solar System and learn the real definition of "space." Learners use the online calculator to create an appropriate scale to use as a basis for thei
