In this activity, learners explore how to protect their skin while applying pesticides to plants.

In this activity (on pages 36-39), learners make a model of a watershed out of paper, then run water down the mountain to simulate how rainfall and pollution affect watersheds.

In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

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

In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

In this online activity, learners find out whether they are smart enough to survive as a plant.

This creative lesson plan provides a visual way for learners to gain knowledge about the finite amount of fresh water on Earth and encourages the discussion of the various ways to conserve this resour

In this activity, learners will explore the ways natural materials can produce sounds. Appropriate for any age, learners can make individual music or create a symphony with others.

In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

In this online interactive, learners use fossils to infer temperatures 55 million years ago, at the sites where the fossils were found.

Build and test a scale model of a rainforest canopy walkway.

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.

In this activity, learners will dissect a pumpkin or winter squash to learn the parts of the plant. This activity gets your learner hands on with every part of the plant and will be messy.

In this interactive activity, learners analyze seashells to explore phylogeny and evolution. Learners identify similar and dissimilar seashells to create a phylogenetic tree.

This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.
