In this activity, learners will test soil content using their sample, some water and a container that seals.

In this activity, learners will investigate and compare the root systems of plants. Explore how weed and edible plant roots differ, and take a closer look inside with the careful use of a knife!

In this activity, young learners (2 years and up) explore turtle basic adaptations and biology. Turtle external anatomy is explored by "building" a turtle with a nature collage.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

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

In this activity, learners calculate the number of milliliters of water a nearby tree transpires per day.

In this activity, learners explore the structure of plant leaves. Learners find out what happens when they coat either the top or bottom sides of leaves with petroleum jelly.

In this activity, learners explore why they can see colors in bubbles and why they change.

In this activity, learners discover how exercise helps keep the body healthy. Learners increase their heart rates by running and understand how running fast versus walking affects their pulse rates.

In this group or individual activity, learners are encouraged to watch birds near home or school—possibly where birds are nesting in a tree, pecking in a park, feeding from a feeder, or flying through

In this engineering design challenge, learners make a bird and then control its flight with attached strings.

In this activity, learners build a bird feeder or feeders to attract birds for observation.

In this optics activity, learners use a shoebox, colored cellophane and sunlight to "change" the colors of gumballs. Learners will be surprised when the green and blue gumballs appear black!

In this activity, learners will collect, dry and press seaweed over the course of four days in a similar way that artists/crafters press flowers.

In this activity, learners collect worms and then observe how they move.

In this activity, learners use coverslips to collect organisms from a pond, estuary or marine environment and then examine what they have caught with a microscope.

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.

This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

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

This is an activity where learners will discover what types and how many insects live in their own backyard.
