Millions of organisms can live in and around a body of water.

In this activity, learners pretend that they are orcas and search for their "pods" using Morse code.

In this activity, learners explore how salt water freezes in comparison to fresh water.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

In this activity, learners work in small groups to match various marine animals with their different environments.

In this activity, learners explore why the sky is blue. Learners model the scattering of light by the atmosphere, which creates the blue sky and red sunset, using a flashlight and clear glue sticks.

In this activity, learners make their own bug boxes and test the habitat preference of selected "minibeasts" (bugs).

The purpose of this plant biotechnology activity is to demonstrate the effect of changes in the environment on the growth and fertility of landscape grasses and crop grasses such as wheat and rice.

In this activity, learners capture and observe planaria, which are worms that eat tiny pond critters.

This lab activity is about toxic substances like pesticides and their effects on biological systems. The activity starts with an introduction of how birds sequester calcium to make an egg.

In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.

The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

In this outdoor game, learners role play predator and prey to explore the importance of keen hearing and silent stalking skills in the animal world.

Professor John Endler traveled to Trinidad in the 1970s to study wild guppies. In this activity, learners take part in an online simulation of Endler's work.

In this fun, hands-on autumn activity, learners experiment to discover whether the colored substances in leaves can be separated from the leaves.

In this activity, learners use whale count data from the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary to compare whale counts in relation to environmental factors.
