In this activity, learners investigate soil conditions by creating a soil map. Learners record soil characteristics and compare the conditions of soil in different grid sections.

In this activity, learners discover how to determine the distance to a lightning strike or nearby thunderstorm.

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

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.

In this activity, learners model a population of deer and see how the number of deer changes over time.

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

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 two-part lesson, learners discover how large bodies of water can serve as a heat source or sink at different times and how proximity to water moderates climate along the coast.

In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity, learners set up a simple experiment to find out how sunscreen counteracts the effects of the sun.

In this activity, learners discover how the extent of various wind speeds changes in each of the four quadrants around a hurricane.

In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.

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

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.

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

In this activity related to climate change and data analysis, learners examine temperature and precipitation data to determine if climate variations are due to El Niño.
