In this activity, learners discover how frogs' bodies change while growing from a tadpole to a frog. Learners create a simple craft that gives a visual display of the metamorphosis process.

In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

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

In this activity, learners listen to a story and tell a story of their own as they learn about the importance of elders in Native American cultures.

In this activity, learners capture and observe planaria, which are worms that eat tiny pond critters.

In this activity, learners explore the behavior of cold-blooded animals. Learners discover what happens when they change a fly's temperature.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover the wonders of the habitat surrounding them.

When was the last time you took a really close look at a leaf? In this activity, learners will use leaves and simple materials to make colorful leaf rubbings.

In this activity, learners make homemade journals featuring seashell rubbings. First, learners transfer the texture of a seashell onto a piece of paper using a crayon.

In this engineering activity (page 3 of PDF), young learners investigate how a pole can be made stable by “planting” its base in the ground or adding supports to the base.

Learners construct a bird feeder from re-used materials. After hanging their feeder, they keep a journal about what birds visit the feeder.

In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

This activity investigates how bark beetles can threaten forests by having learners estimate the number of infected trees from a photo.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to explore how water flows up from a tree's roots to its leafy crown.

In this activity, learners will explore how animal in cold areas stay warm.

In this activity, learners will explore how different bird beaks work and discover what birds can eat based on their beak shape.

In this activity, learners investigate soil erosion. Learners set up a simulation to observe how water can change the land and move nutrients from one place to another.

In this activity, learners will create their own coral polyps - the basis for a coral reef.

In this activity, learners compare plant and animal life in different habitats including a sidewalk crack and lawn. Learners sort human-made materials and natural materials found in each habitat.

Learners assemble a figure from a nylon stocking or sock stuffed with soil and seeds. The ends of the nylons inside the jar absorb water, which feeds the grass seeds.
