In this online activity, learners adjust mountain snowfall and temperature to see how glaciers grow and shrink. They will use scientific tools to measure thickness, velocity and glacial budget.

In this design challenge, learners will engineer a structure and see if it can survive an earthquake they create.

In this activity (on pages 12-15), learners make a crater model and test the effects of weather (rain) on its surface.

In this activity (on page 8), learners model how marble statues and buildings are affected by acid rain.

This activity models some of the ways natural processes, such as erosion and sediment pollution, affect Earth’s landscape.

This activity encourages visitors to build an electroscope—a simplified version of one of the tools scientists use to study the invisible forces on Earth and in space.

In this activity, learners gain knowledge about how carbon moves through all four of the Earth’s major spheres (biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere), and understand how humans influenc

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 physical sciences activity, learners explore how passive solar design increases energy efficiency.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.
