In this activity, learners discover how geologists use stratigraphy, the study of layered rock, to understand the sequence of geological events.

In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.

In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

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

In this online activity, learners adjust mountain snowfall and temperature to see how glaciers grow and shrink. They will use scientific tools to measure thickness, velocity and glacial budget.

In this paleontology activity, learners explore the system behind dinosaur nomenclature.

In this activity, learners explore how casts of fossilized bones are created and used to learn about dinosaurs. Learners make observations, draw diagrams and share their findings.

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

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

In this activity, learners explore different types of fossils by making their out of dough and objects from around the house.

Ancient trash tells archaeologists a lot about the past. In this activity, learners take a close look inside their trash can and think about the clues it offers about their lives.

This is a quick activity that shows how large amounts of rock and sediment are added to the edge of continents during subduction.

This activity (page 3 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs) is a full inquiry investigation into fossil hunting and identification.

This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.

This is a culminating activity which allows learners to summarize what they know about Woodlands Native Americans by creating illustrations and map symbols for a large outline map (see related Activit

In this activity (p.7-8 of PDF), learners examine fossil formation.

In this activity (on pages 12-15), learners make a crater model and test the effects of weather (rain) on its surface.

Learners create their own piece of history by decorating, shattering, and piecing together a flowerpot "artifact".

In this activity, learners drop impactors onto layers of graham crackers!
