In this activity, learners try to figure out who has their matching rock type by reading a description of their rock (no talking!).

In this outdoor game, learners simulate a herd of deer trying to survive in an area called the "home range." Learners explore the concept of "carrying capacity"—what size population of an organism can

In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

In this outdoor, night-time activity, learners discover how to spot eye-shine (reflection of light from an animal's eyes) by using a flashlight to play a simulation game.

In this activity, learners will use static elecricity to bend a stream of water without touching it. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this 6-7 day investigation, learners begin with an introduction to seamounts that are present in the Gulf of Alaska.

Learners use a candle to investigate the products of combustion. When a glass rod is held over a lit candle, the candle flame deposits carbon on the rod.

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

In this activity, learners will explore what a constellation is and make their own.

In this activity, learners explore nonrenewable resources and learn why these resources are finite.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

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

In this activity, learners use a microscope to examine three different microbes: bacteria, yeast and paramecia. Educator will need to prepare the yeast solution one day before the activity.

In this interactive game, learners listen to the songs of four different thrushes and then try to match each bird with its song.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this outdoor mapping activity, learners explore where plants grow and map plant-distribution patterns.

In this activity, learners simulate the energy transfer between the earth and space by using the light from a desk lamp desk lamp with an incandescent bulb and a stack of glass plates.

In this activity, learners will observe and record living things with in outlined outside space.

In this activity, learners explore how environmental engineers might approach solving the problem of an oil spill.
