In this activity, learners will engineer a roof using simple materials to protect a construction paper person from a rainstorm.

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

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

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

This display shows slow chemical reactions in colorful crystal formations known as Liesegang Rings. These reactions are similar to those forming the rings in agates.

In this activity, learners will build rainwater collectors to practice meteorology in their own backyard. Collect and analyze data to determine how much rainfall you get in a set period of time.

In this activity, learners test and compare the physical properties of thermoplastic polymers. Learners compare different plastics based on their color, degree of transparency, texture, and density.

In this activity, learners of all ages will design a functional bird feeder using familiar, every day materials.

In this activity, learners examine the properties of different seaweeds, investigate what happens when powdered seaweed (alginate) is added to water, and learn about food products made with seaweed.

This is part 2 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity and must be done after part 1: Sedimentary Rocks. In this activity, learners explore how metamorphic rocks form.

In this data activity, learners will explore shipwrecks from four National Marine Sanctuaries on the West Coast of the United States.

In this activity, learners are challenged to build a bird feeder using recycled materials from home and are encouraged to problem solve during the extensions.

In this activity, learners will use simple materials to explore centripetal force and variables by swinging a cup of water without having the water spill out.

In this activity, learners use tsunami time travel maps to predict how long it will take a tsunami to reach the shore.

In this activity, leaners will observe the process of natural selection on a population of birds called 'Springbeaks' over four seasons of breeding on an isolated environment called 'Clippy Island.' L

This is part 3 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity. Before starting this section, learners must have completed part 1: sedimentary rock and part 2: metamorphic rocks.

In this activity, learners construct a home-made journal with simple, everyday materials.

In this activity, learners will exercise their imaginations and artistic skills. Appropriate for all ages, learners will create unique pieces to jumpstart storytelling sessions.

This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.
