In this meteorology activity, learners build weather vanes using straws, paperclips, and cardstock.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

In this meteorology activity, learners construct simple devices to measure the direction and speed of wind.

In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

In this activity, learners will listen to as many radio stations as possible to discover that AM radio signals can travel many hundreds of miles at night.

This is an online game about the complexities of farming. Learners will "draw" cards and make decisions about how to take care of their farm.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

In this activity, learners explore how anemometers work to record wind speeds and how the equipment has undergone engineering adaptations over time.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Lift Off) is a full inquiry investigation into the engineering challenges of sending scientific sensors into space.

In this on site "field trip" activity (located on pages 6-9 of PDF), learners get hands-on experience identifying building materials by playing "Building Bingo".
