This resource contains ideas and brief instructions on how to build animals out of construction paper and other simple materials.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this lesson, learners develop a robot arm using common materials. Learners explore design, construction, and teamwork, as well as materials selection and use.

In this math lesson, learners use the setting of a flower-making fundraiser to explore a variety of patterns. Learners examine the patterns in a flower design made of triangles surrounding a square.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

Align four color transparencies, each one a single color (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black), and see a beautiful full color image.

In this activity, "write" a secret message in genetic code as beads on a string.

In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.

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

In this fun activity about spiders, learners build and design a spider from cardstock, straw, string, and pipe cleaners.

In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

Make a kite out of a garbage bag, shower curtain, painting tarp--anything light, thin, flexible and plastic!

In this engineering activity, learners explore simple machines and then build cardboard automata using cams.

In this activity, learners build a paper stellated rhombic dodecahedron, a three-dimensional 12-pointed star.

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

In this activity, learners are challenged to design and construct a jointed figure that moves in a motion (something like jumping jacks) when a string is pulled.

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

In this four-day lesson, learners identify three-dimensional forms in castle design, research different parts of the castle with a focus on their uses, and design and enlarge a banner for the great ha

This activity has three story puzzles learners can solve to learn about life in the Arctic.
