Fossilized Dinosaur Teeth Adaptations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.

Join the Dinosaur Age
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.
Mercury in the Environment
Source Institutions
In this environmental science lesson, learners will examine the dangers of mercury and how humans contribute to growing mercury emissions on Earth.

Kelsey: Clues of the Dig Site Map
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and a dig site. Learners work in groups to analyze a dig site map and match bones to a skeletal drawing of Kelsey (a Triceratops).

Flocking for Food
Source Institutions
In this outdoor beach activity, learners use a variety of "beaks" (such as trowels, spoons or sticks) to hunt for organisms that shore birds might eat.

Underwater ROV
Source Institutions
In this online Flash game, learners will explore a coral reef using an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV).

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

Terrestrial Hi-Lo Hunt
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners search for the warmest and coolest, windiest and calmest, wettest and driest, and brightest and darkest spots in an area.

Sensory Hi-Lo Hunt
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

Weather Forecasting
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

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

Shoebox Dinosaur Dig Site
Source Institutions
In this activity, (on page 6 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs) learners participate in a hands-on fossil excavation.

How Big Were the Dinosaurs?
Source Institutions
In this activity (located on page 4 of PDF), learners gain insight into the actual size of dinosaurs and practice making estimations and measurements.

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

Collect Invertebrates to Determine Water Quality
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

OBIS Oil Spill
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.

Classroom Dinosaur Dig
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners participate in a simulated dig to discover fossilized dinosaur bones. Learners take notes, make a map and propose theories about dinosaurs.

Gaming in the Outdoors
Source Institutions
In this set of outdoor games, learners increase their awareness of the outdoor environment by going on a scavenger hunt and an out-of-place hunt.

Human Impact on Estuaries: A Terrible Spill in Grand Bay
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make a model of a pollution spill that occurred at Bangs Lake in Mississippi and measure water quality parameters in their model.

Size, Scale and Models
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.
