In this activity, learners observe the effect of transpiration as water is moved from the ground to the atmosphere.

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

In this activity, learners discover which plants and animals have symbiotic relationships and how this impacts each organism.

In this activity, learners make a model of the hot water of a deep sea vent in the cold water of the ocean to learn about one of the ocean's most amazing and bizarre underwater habitats.

In this activity on page 14 of the PDF (Rethinking the 3 R’s: It’s Easy to be Green), learners turn plain pieces of recycled plastic into shrunken works of art.

In this activity, learners construct a home-made journal with simple, everyday materials.

In this activity, learners use chocolate to explore how the Sun transfers heat to the Earth through radiation.

In this activity and/or demonstration, learners illustrate visually and physically that air has weight. Learners balance two equally-inflated balloons hanging from string on a yard stick.

In this activity, learners are introduced to tree rings by examining a cross section of a tree, also known as a “tree cookie.” They discover how tree age can be determined by studying the rings and ho

In this activity, learners will create their very own constellation.

In this activity, learners identify the reproductive parts of plants and the animal (bee) structures involved in pollination.

In this very hands-on lesson, learners will investigate dendrochronology (the study of tree rings to answer ecological questions about the recent past) and come up with conclusions as to what possible

This activity (on pages 15-23) combines interactive role-playing and graphing to introduce learners to the health affects of pollen.

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this weather-related activity, learners make a portable cloud in a bottle.

In this activity, learners investigate how wolves communicate with each other through different body postures.

In this activity, learners create a "mini sky" in a glass of water in a dark room.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.

In this activity, learners observe the moon each night for a month and draw their observations in a Moon Watch Log.
