In this activity, learners will simulate the interactions between a predator population of gray wolves and a prey population of deer in a forest.

This activity explores the main algorithms that are used as the basis for searching on computers, using different variations on the game of battleships.

In this game, learners experience how computers divide a big problem into many smaller ones and how they use binary "yes"/"no" questions.

In this math activity (Page 12 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "soccer" and analyze the results of the game.

In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

In this math activity (Page 14 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "basketball" and analyze the results of the game.

In this game, learners build up six stacks of cards in the middle of the table, face up, in order from 1 at the bottom to 20 on the top. The first player to get rid of all his cards is the winner.

In this activity, learners use their understanding of probability to guess which color will be drawn from a bag.

In this math activity, learners play a game similar to 20 Questions, in which learners must identify a secret number drawn from a bag.

In this multi-faceted game (on pages 25-35), learners recreate what happens to creatures in the Brazilian rain forest as they grow from egg to adult—especially those that use fallen, empty Brazil nut

In this activity, learners play an evolution card game to see how selective pressures can affect an organism's evolution.

In this math lesson, learners play a game to identify the properties of prime, composite, abundant, deficient and perfect numbers.

In this game, learners use clues to identify mystery shapes. Use everyday objects (like from the pantry) as the shapes.

In this math game (Page 14 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners determine the probability of getting an even versus an odd product using the numbers on a regular deck of cards.

This game is like regular bingo, except the clues are sounds.

In this game, learners are volcanoes that must complete several steps to erupt. Starting at home plate, learners draw cards until they have enough points to move to first base.

In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

In this tabletop board game, players will represent a team of scientists and engineers sending a spacecraft on a mission to space.

In this activity, learners will explore the physics of liquids and gas by playing with both! Learners of any age use their own breath to move drops of water across a smooth wax paper surface.

In this matching game, learners study the limits of life on Earth to see what other places in the solar system might sustain microbial life.
