In this activity, learners start their own field journal to better understand the wildlife in their area.

This activity has three story puzzles learners can solve to learn about life in the Arctic.

Ancient trash tells archaeologists a lot about the past. In this activity, learners take a close look inside their trash can and think about the clues it offers about their lives.

Learners create their own piece of history by decorating, shattering, and piecing together a flowerpot "artifact".
