In this activity (25th on the page) about learning and memory, learners explore a training method that animal trainers employ called "shaping." Working in pairs, learners will attempt to "shape" each

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this outdoor winter activity, learners search for and create hibernation sites that will protect gelatin "animals" from freezing.

Learners create a model of a wetland to observe how it absorbs and filters water from the environment.

In this wintertime outdoor activity, learners role play wolves tracking their prey by following scented trails.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.

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 quick activity, learners explore how blubber protects animals from the cold by making a "blubber mitt." Using cooking shortening, two zip-top sandwich bags, and duct tape, learners simulate bl

In this outdoor simulation game, learners search for pretend animals called "sticklers" to determine and map where they live (habitat) and how spread out they are in that area (distribution).

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this activity (on pages 29-35), learners examine water pollution and filtration.

In this activity (p.3-4 of PDF), learners learn about disease transmission and antibiotic resistance.

This activity (on pages 38-43) has learners simulate the way scientists track and map the movement of otters in the wild using radio trackers.

In this experiment, learners examine the way oil affects bird feathers and test different cleanup methods to find out which works best.

In this group activity, learners will explore the characteristics, functions and uniqueness of the mangrove tree.

In this activity, learners play a game to simulate the food chain.

In this plant science activity, learners role play as vegetables and weeds competing for nutrients.

A group of learners simulates the spread of disease by trading slips of paper, one set of which has been treated with a baking soda solution.
