What's Hiding in the Air?: Acid Rain Activity
As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

Decomposition Column
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners turn empty 2-liter bottles into a see-through compost container.

Seed Orbs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

Planting with Precision
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how engineers work to solve the challenges of a society, such as efficient planting and harvesting.

Make a Terrarium
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

Irrigation Ideas
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how civil engineers solved the challenge of moving water via irrigation.

Pollinator Play
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will build a bee hotel for pollinators. Learners will explore building and ecology through this activity.

Breaking Point
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build penetrometers to test leaf toughness. Biologists measure leaf toughness to study the feeding preferences of insects and bugs.

The Self-Watering Terrarium
Source Institutions
In this biology/ecology activity, learners construct a terrarium out of a tennis ball container. This terrarium is unique because it never has to be watered.

Veggies with Vigor
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners try to revive wilted celery. Learners discover that plants wilt when their cells lose water through evaporation. Use this activity to introduce capillary action.

For the Birds
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore nature by creating food for birds. Learners will develop fine motor skills and engage in nature observation through this activity.
