Investigate a flower's power of marketing by making an imitation flower that successfully signals a bee (or other pollinator of your choice) to visit.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners first participate in a group discussion about where and when dinosaurs lived, how big they were, and who studies them and how.

This activity has learners interacting with live crayfish, but could be adapted for a variety of similar hardy and interesting organisms.

In this activity about dinosaurs, learners explore how and why fossils form. First, learners are introduced to dinosaur fossils by reading the book "Bones, Bones, Dinosaur Bones" by Byron Barton.

In this activity, young learners use different-sized paper 'caterpillars' and various household items to predict and measure their height.

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

In this activity related to dinosaurs, learners explore why animals live in families. Learners discuss and identify animals living in families or groups from images and photos.

In this activity, early learners simulate fossil prints in play dough or clay.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

This is an activity about dinosaurs, fossils, and the work of paleontologists. Learners use hand tools (paint brushes, scoops, and sifters) to unearth fossil specimens in tubs of birdseed.

In this activity, learners explore the work of paleontologists.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons.

In this math activity, learners use a "function machine" to collect and organize simple data. The function machine in this case is a cardboard box and the input/output data are paper fish.

In this activity, learners explore the concepts of natural selection and observable traits in a game that can be played at home.

In this classic memory game (on pages 37-45 of PDF), learners turn over tiles to reveal images on the back.

In this activity, learners create a three-dimensional sculpture while examining the characteristics of fish.

In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.

In this activity, learners use maps to locate the Northwest Coastal region.
