This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

In this activity, learners make their own bug boxes and test the habitat preference of selected "minibeasts" (bugs).

In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of hearing and plan and conduct their own experiments.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Stained Glass Activity) about nanotechnology making its way into everyday products, such as sunscreen, and how effective these invisible particl

In this health, cooking, and math activity, learners explore nutrition and examine nutrition labels.

In this activity, learners visualize the differences in water density and relate this to the potential consequences of increased glacial melting.

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

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) about the mixture of materials in bone and how they affect its strength.

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

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Gecko Feet Activity) about modeling a nanoscale phenomenon (gravity-defying gecko feet) with macroscale objects (shoes).

Learners use engineering design principles to construct and test a fully solar-powered car. Solar car kits usually include a photovoltaic cell and motor; some include a chassis as well.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection by encouraging them to formulate questions that can be answered through scientific investi

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 page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War) is a full inquiry investigation into tug-of-war physics. Groups of learners will test two tug-of-war strategies.

In this thought-provoking activity, learners plan a hypothetical project to build and operate wind turbines in their community.

In this activity, learners investigate variations in human traits. This allows learners' natural curiosity about their identity to draw them into the study of heredity.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.
