Some aquatic organisms live in open water, while some live in soil at the bottom of a body of water.

In this activity, learners will make their own prism and use a glass of water to separate sunlight into different colors.

In this outdoor activity linking human health to the environment, learners use their pulse rates as a measure of the effort expended in walking on different slopes.

Many germs spread by our hands, and often times, people don't wash their hands well enough to get rid of germs.

In this activity, learners make their own flip book that shows real solar flares erupting from the Sun in November 2000. Step-by-step instructions are included with photos.

In this activity, learners use tonic water to detect ultraviolet (UV) light from the Sun and explore the concept of fluorescence.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover how the environment around a building affects the growth of plants.

This is a guide for facilitating interaction at a touch tank with marine animals. The instructions are for setting up a display in an informal science center, but could work anywhere.

Although we may not admit it, all humans fart or pass some gas. In this activity, learners make their own model to mimic food passing through intestines and discover what releases gas.

Most of the time, we don't have to think about breathing. In fact, you're probably breathing right now without thinking about it!

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

In this activity, learners add food coloring to hot and cold water in order to see how fluids at different temperatures move around in convection currents.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

Some bugs can walk on the surface of a lake, stream, river, pond or ocean.

In this activity, learners use candy pieces and a cookie to make an accurate model of the Sun they can eat. Parts of the delicious model include solar granules, sunspots, and solar prominences.

In this activity, learners make their own Sun tracker to explore how ancient civilizations around the world studied the Sun.

In this card-based personal choice activity, learners review and sort COVID-19 and vaccine science information.

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

In this movement and measurement activity, learners jump as far as they can three times, and compare their longest jump to the longest jump of their friends, classmates and/or family members.

This activity features two connected hands-on activities about dinosaur bones.
