As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

In this lab, learners experience how dolphins and other echolocating animals use their senses to locate and identify objects without using their sense of sight.

In this activity, learners consider how oil spills behave in the ocean and what impact they have on marine wildlife.

Lakes, streams and other freshwater bodies are a habitat for lots of living things, big and small.

In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

In this activity, learners will discover why there are holes in bread.

In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.
