In this outdoor biology and math activity, learners estimate the size of a population of organisms too numerous to count.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

In this outdoor activity, learners search for the warmest and coolest, windiest and calmest, wettest and driest, and brightest and darkest spots in an area.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners catch and observe water striders to explore their movement and feeding behaviors.

In this set of outdoor games, learners play the role of monkeys that are trying to get enough resources (food, shelter, and space) to survive.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of insulation by trying to keep Olaf the Snowman from melting. This activity encourages critical thinking and problem solving.

In this activity, a group of learners work collaboratively to design and construct a paper model showing the evolution of an environment through multiple stages, from prehistory through the modern cit

Agriculturalists have long considered mushroom growing a challenge, largely because you need a piece of benchtop equipment known as a laminar flow hood.

In this classic activity, learners investigate natural selection by becoming birds foraging for food on an island.

In this activity, learners take on the role of a carbon atom and record which reservoirs in the carbon cycle they visit.

In this outdoor activity that can be combined with a hike, learners try to match a "mystery community" by shaking animals out of different trees and shrubs.

In this plant science activity, learners role play as vegetables and weeds competing for nutrients.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.

In this activity/demo, learners examine a synthetic gecko tape with micron sized hairs that mimics the behavior of the gecko foot.

In this activity, learners will discover how the thin layers of amphibians' skin allow water and other chemicals to pass through it.

What does it mean to be alive? Is a cactus alive? Is a seed alive? Is the air we breathe alive? What are the necessary characteristics?

In this game, learners match descriptions of marine debris (shoes, batteries, paper towels, etc.) to images of these items.

In this outdoor activity and fun race, learners first find the most common type of tree in a forest site.

In this activity, learners observe fly behavior and then build a flytrap.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.
