Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.

In this experiment, learners work in pairs to create two gloves -- one that contains a layer of shortening (blubber) inside, and one that doesn't.

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

Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.

In this activity, learners make a model of the solid Earth's layers that's good enough to eat! Learners use tasty foodstuffs to simulate Earth's inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to build their own compass.

Learners grow sugar crystals (rock candy). They make a hot solution that has an excess of sugar dissolved in it, then as the solution cools, they see sugar crystals form.

Educator Amy O'Donnell from the American Museum of Natural History guides learners to create a diorama of a coral reef.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.

This three-part activity shows learners how to build three meteorology tools: a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a barometer.
