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

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

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".

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

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