This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.

In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

Learners will build a lung model to understand how their lungs and diaphragm work to make them breathe.

In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

This fun activity uses simple materials such as milk cartons and mirrors to introduce the ideas of optics and visual perception.

This activity models the necessary balance of creating power and cleaning up its associated waste. Learners participate in a game where they attempt to move forward toward a goal.

This creative lesson plan provides a visual way for learners to gain knowledge about the finite amount of fresh water on Earth and encourages the discussion of the various ways to conserve this resour

In this activity, learners use information gathered from a variety of sources to design and make their own insect.

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

In this activity/demo, learners investigate biobarcodes, a nanomedical technology that allows for massively parallel testing that can assist with disease diagnosis.

In this activity, learners model directed evolution by making paper fly. Learners construct and fly paper airplanes.

In this activity about living things and gravity (page 5 of PDF), learners design and build an exoskeleton or an endoskeleton for an animal of their own invention.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.

This hands-on astronomy activity allows you to create a “cutaway” telescope to clearly show how reflector and refractor telescopes work.

In this activity, learners construct a playable kazoo from inexpensive materials. They will experience how vibration creates sound waves and music.

In this hands-on activity, learners investigate the functional design of leaves on a tree.

In this activity, learners build one or more edible coral polyps and place them together to form a colony.

In this activity about human anatomy (page 16 of PDF), learners construct a model arm and discover how muscles and bones work together to achieve efficient movement.
