In this activity, learners examine how brine shrimp populations can survive in some of the harshest environments.

Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.

In this activity, learners discover the primary physical properties used to separate pure substances from mixtures.

In this two-day activity (on pages 16-22), learners use a process like that of the Yoruba people of Nigeria to create an African symbol on cloth.

In this activity, learners investigate the different salinity levels of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

In this design challenge, learners will use microbes to design and grow a custom biomaterial at home and make something creative with it.

Learners will compare the growth rate and appearance of crystals forming on small rocks to those growing on miscellaneous objects. Learners will also investigate how temperature (warm vs.

In this activity (on pages 24-34), learners explore the four-part stomach of cows (and other grazing animals called ruminants), and compare it to the human one-part stomach and its digestive process.

In this activity, learners discuss the different salinities of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

This mirror-tracing activity related to proprioception is a visual and motor test that involves learning a new motor skill.

In this activity, learners extract DNA from their own cheek cells, then create a rudimentary DNA profile similar to those seen on crime scene dramas.

In this activity, learners will build a design and build a place for pollinators to drink from.

Just like birds, some dinosaurs had air-filled (pneumatic) bones, which made the dinosaurs' skeletons lighter.
