In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

In this activity, learners play a game to simulate the food chain.

In this activity, learners construct a coastal landmass from sand and add features such as tidal creeks and barrier islands.

In this activity, learners will rate the day, a book, or something else on a scale from -2 to 2. This activity works well for groups of all ages.

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 nighttime, outdoor activity, learners keep a record of what they see in the sky by drawing constellations, the Moon, and making note of the weather and conditions each day.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

Learners build models of sinkholes to gain an intuitive knowledge of their physical aspects.

In this activity, learners gain knowledge about how carbon moves through all four of the Earth’s major spheres (biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere), and understand how humans influenc

Learners investigate the concept of humidity by using a dry and wet sponge as a model. They determine a model for 100% humidity, a sponge saturated with water.

In this quick activity, learners observe how the added sugar in a can of soda affects its density and thus, its ability to float in water.

In this activity, learners model erosion using a clear shoebox and sand or soil.

In this activity, learners observe mixtures of sand samples glued to note cards, and consider how sand can differ in size, shape, and color, and where it comes from.

In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.

In this activity, learners will learn how igneous rock, metamorphic rock, and sedimentary rock are formed as part of the rock cycle and that the same forces that produce/change rocks also produce/chan

In this outdoor, warm weather activity, learners use sweepnets to search a grassy area such as a large lawn or field, collecting small animals to find as many different kinds of animals as possible.

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

By participating in a seed scavenger hunt, learners examine many adaptations of seeds, including how many seeds a plant makes, how those seeds travel to new locations, and what protects them from pred

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