In this outdoor activity, learners release a portion of a lawn from human control—no mowing, no watering, no weeding, no pest control—and then investigate the changes that result over several weeks.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.
