Make a Dinosaur Model
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.

Animal House
Source Institutions
The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

The Scoop on Scallops
Source Institutions
In this data analysis activity, learners quantify the abundance and distribution of sea scallops in and adjacent to the Mid-Atlantic closed areas.

Small Snails, Enormous Elephants
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

Animals are Amazing!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.

Woodlands Map
Source Institutions
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

Feed the Birds

River Catcher
Source Institutions
In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

Three Little Pigs Construction Company
Source Institutions
In this activity about problem-solving, learners build a house for the Three Little Pigs using twenty straws and two index cards.

Bark Beetle Infestation Investigation: Estimation and Pheromones
Source Institutions
This activity investigates how bark beetles can threaten forests by having learners estimate the number of infected trees from a photo.

Dinosaur Interaction
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore why animals, specifically dinosaurs, live in families.

Living Clocks
Source Institutions
In this activity about daily rhythms (on page 17 of the PDF), learners will explore circadian patterns in humans, animals and plants.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners investigate the solubility of gas in water at different temperatures. This experiment will help learners determine if temperature affects solubility.

Using a Sundial
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 12 of the PDF), learners make a sundial (shadow clock) appropriate for their geographic location in the northern hemisphere and use it to tell time.
Shady Snakes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make pretend snakes and use them to explore estimation and measurement. Learners roll out clay snakes and estimate and measure their lengths and diameters.

When Pigs Fly
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners explore probability.

Gummy Growth
Source Institutions
In this activity related to Archimedes' Principle, learners use water displacement to compare the volume of an expanded gummy bear with a gummy bear in its original condition.

Introduction to Ocean Zones
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.
