In this outdoor activity, learners release a portion of a lawn from human control—no mowing, no watering, no weeding, no pest control—and then investigate the changes that result over several weeks.

In this activity, learners make a model of a one-way heart valve to investigate how a heart controls the direction of blood flow.
