In this activity, learners investigate wind by comparing the force of wind in different locations. Learners build wind-o-meters out of wooden sticks and strips of paper.

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 math activity, learners make their own bubble wands and determine if the size of the wand affects the number of bubbles it produces.

In this activity, learners use cheap, thin plastic garbage bags to quickly build a solar hot air balloon. In doing so, learners will explore why hot air rises.

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

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

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

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

Learners use several types of insect sampling and collection equipment to make an insect collection. Learners can collect insects from their schoolyard or yard at home.

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

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.

In this math lesson, learners estimate distances between landmarks and use a map and scales to determine the actual distances.

In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

In this activity, learners investigate how different materials repel or absorb water. Learners use spray bottles to explore how everyday items like sponges, cardboard, feathers, etc.

In this activity (p.6-10 of PDF), learners use different methods for hunting minibeasts (bugs). Learners can either make traps or simply look for minibeasts under stones and logs.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this activity, learners examine the different materials gardeners add to their soil, and discuss how these materials are important for plant growth.

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

In this biology/ecology activity, learners construct a terrarium out of a tennis ball container. This terrarium is unique because it never has to be watered.
