In this group activity, learners act out key stages of the "ocean carbon cycle" (also known as the "carbonate buffer system") through motions, rearranging blocks and team tasks.

This activity guide features three related explorations to help learners ages 3-6 investigate shadows via the following science concepts: A shadow is made when an object blocks the light; you can chan

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

Throw that fish back? A new generation of ethical anglers concerned about conserving resources is participating in "catch and release" fishing. How is this going?

In this activity, learners can create five-layer density columns by employing one of three (or all) methods.

In this activity, learners explore how to stay fit the fun way. Learners participate in three physical activities.

In this robotics activity, learners find ways to express emotions and feelings using only body movements, not facial expressions.

In this data activity, learners will compare and contrast fish communities, diversity and habitats in U.S. National Marine Sanctuaries.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design and construct a jointed figure that moves in a motion (something like jumping jacks) when a string is pulled.

This activity allows learners to explore the scientific method in an open-ended fashion, using the 4-P Approach to Science Inquiry developed by the University of Wisconsin, Beloit.

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this simulation, learners model two elephant seal populations and how they change over time. Learners start with cards representing a variety of seals.

In this four-day lesson, learners identify three-dimensional forms in castle design, research different parts of the castle with a focus on their uses, and design and enlarge a banner for the great ha

In this group activity, learners use some common objects and work together to simulate the Coriolis effect. During the challenge, learners make predictions and test different scenarios.

In this activity related to plant biotechnology, learners transform a strain of E. coli using green fluorescent protein from a bioluminescent jellies.

In this activity, learners investigate feeding relationships. Learners complete a food web and then make a mobile to represent a food chain.

Through doing these hands-on activities, learners explore the environmental consequences associated with fossil fuel usage.

Learners will build a lung model to understand how their lungs and diaphragm work to make them breathe.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how aerospace engineering has impacted sports, specifically exploring the design of golf balls.
