Over the course of several days, learners explore the property of water that helps plants move water from roots to leaves or gives paper towels the capacity to soak up water.

Learners place cut flowers in colored water and observe how the flowers change. The flowers absorb the water through the stem and leaves.

In this laboratory activity, learners use a simple procedure to bait oomycetes from water and/ or soil and then examine these fungus-like organisms with the microscope to see how they look.

In this activity, learners create a soil and water model of a single-cell life environment and study living microorganisms.

In this activity, learners find out what happens when they cover leaves with pieces of black construction paper. This activity shows learners that plants need sunlight to survive.

In this activity, learners will explore vegetative propagation while preparing food scraps to grow into plants.

In this activity, learners build a model of a self-sustaining habitat (growing grass and beans from seeds).

In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

In this laboratory activity, learners design an experiment to evaluate how environmental factors influence the growth of molds.

This activity provides an opportunity for learners to observe and examine how carbon dioxide, water, and light produce glucose/starch through a process called photosynthesis.
