In this weather activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will construct their very own anemometer to measure wind speed.

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

In this activity, learners review and discuss weathering, erosion and mass wasting, to gain a stronger understanding of how Hickory Run’s Boulder Field was formed after the Laurentide Continental Glac

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

In this activity, learners use crayons to draw conclusions about rocks and the rock cycle.

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

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 construct a coastal landmass from sand and add features such as tidal creeks and barrier islands.

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.

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 game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

In this indoor and outdoor activity, learners discover that insects grow and develop as do all living things, going through a process known as complete metamorphosis.

This exercise can be used to stimulate the investigative nature of learners as they use forensic plant pathology techniques to prove the learners' innocence in a mock murder investigation.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

Through discussion and hands-on experimentation, learners examine the geological (ancient) carbon cycle.

In this laboratory exercise, learners will discover how many different plant hosts they can find that are infected by the same genus of a powdery mildew fungus, or how many different genera of powdery
