In this online activity, learners find out whether they are smart enough to survive as a plant.

In this outdoor mapping activity, learners explore where plants grow and map plant-distribution patterns.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover how the environment around a building affects the growth of plants.

In this activity (located in the middle of the page), learners start a garden by planting their socks!

In this food science activity, learners observe different plant-originated foods.

In this activity, learners help identify native and non-native plant species, learn about invasive species, and determine how native plants provide a healthier habitat.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover that plants aren't just shoots (stem, branches, leaves, and flowers) growing above ground, but contain plenty of roots growing underground—more than half th

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Plants—The Green Machines), learners examine the effects that light and air have on green plants.

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 outdoor activity and game, learners collect and sort leaf samples to determine how many types of plants grow in the activity site.

In this activity, learners create a garden in a disposable glove. They learn about the conditions necessary to make the seeds sprout and actively participate in caring for their plants.

In this outdoor activity, learners find the swollen bumps known as "galls" on various plants and get a closeup look at the parasitic animals living inside.

Learners use a transparent plastic glove as a container to grow seeds. A different kind of seed can be planted in each finger.

In this outdoor, sunny day activity, learners experiment with paper leaf models to discover how some desert plants conserve water.

In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to investigate the effect of elevated levels on CO2 on plant growth.

In this activity, learners plant seeds and watch them sprout and grow inside a CD case.

In this activity, learners identify the reproductive parts of plants and the animal (bee) structures involved in pollination.
