In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

In this math lesson, learners use the setting of a flower-making fundraiser to explore a variety of patterns. Learners examine the patterns in a flower design made of triangles surrounding a square.

In this math lesson, learners practice reading charts and graphs by creating and interpreting glyphs.

In order to examine the random nature of mutations and natural selection, learners "breed" clutches of Egyptian Origami Birds (Avis papyrus) using random number generators (dice and coins) to mutate s

In this activity, learners explore why animals, specifically dinosaurs, live in families.

In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this activity learners will investigate magnetic and non-magnetic items in a sensory bottle.

In this activity, learners will repurpose an old t-shirt to create their own yarn or string.

On the first night, I saw 5 stars in the desert. On the second night, I saw 10… What do you think I saw on the third night? Combine arts and crafts, literacy, and math by making a counting book.

In this activity, learners make a device called a phenakistoscope, which displays a continuously looping animation consisting of images drawn onto a spinning disc.

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of rotational equilibrium. Learners work in teams to estimate and determine the force within a mobile design.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this activity, learners arrange triangles together to make patterns to create paper quilts. Learners experiment with arranging the triangles in different ways to make various designs.

In this activity, learners make cool boxes out of old (or new) greeting cards or postcards.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, early learners combine pre-cut recognizable shapes and their own abstract ideas to make representational pictures (e.g. houses, trees, shoes).

In this activity related to dinosaurs, learners explore why animals live in families. Learners discuss and identify animals living in families or groups from images and photos.

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete
