This activity (on pages 23-27) lets learners simulate the work of scientists who take core samples of Earth's rocky layers to determine geological history.

In this activity (on pages 6-11), learners work as a team to investigate how impact craters on Earth, the Moon or other planets take shape and what patterns they make.

In this activity about computer programming, learners follow instructions in a variety of ways in order to successfully draw figures.

In this activity, learners model ancient lunar impacts using water balloons.

In this wintertime outdoor activity, learners role play wolves tracking their prey by following scented trails.

In this activity, pairs of learners model how scientists use craters to determine the ages of lunar surfaces. One partner keeps time while the other creates a painting for the other to interpret.

In this activity about neuron/target muscle recognition (page 44 of the PDF), learners arranged in two rows facing away from each other use string to simulate neural development.

In this math lesson (on Page 13), learners predict and simulate the likelihood of an event occurring.

In this simulation, learners explore how ocean currents spread all kinds of pollution—including oil spills, sewage, pesticides and factory waste—far beyond where the pollution originates.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

In this fun group activity involving music and movement, learners are introduced to the idea that many insects walk by using their legs to create "alternating triangles." Learners sing the "Ants Go Ma

In this activity, learners build and test a compass. Learners work in pairs and pretend they are stuck in the wilderness at night.

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

In this online activity, learners see simulations of how processes shape the Earth, and see estimates of how long these processes take.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity demonstrates the shadow of the Earth as it rises as a dark blue shadow above the eastern horizon.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.

This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.
