In this outdoor activity and bingo-like game, learners explore why and how seeds spread far from the plants that produce them.

In this environmental science activity about biodiversity, learners play a game to discover the effects of non-native species on an ecosystem.

In this game of chance, learners will discover how organisms colonized the Galápagos Islands, experiencing how chance plays a role in the successful dispersal of species to new areas.

In this online activity, learners find out whether they are smart enough to survive as a plant.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners collect and sort leaf samples to determine how many types of plants grow in the activity site.

In this outdoor activity and observation game, learners hunt for a variety of textures, colors, odors and evidence of organisms in the activity site.

In this set of outdoor games, learners play the role of monkeys that are trying to get enough resources (food, shelter, and space) to survive.

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

In this outdoor game, learners play the roles of gray or red squirrels gathering and storing a supply of food in "fall" and recovering enough of them to survive the "winter." Learners carry bags repre

In this outdoor activity and fun race, learners first find the most common type of tree in a forest site.

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

In this activity, learners take on the role of a carbon atom and record which reservoirs in the carbon cycle they visit.

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

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.

In this online simulation, learners can see adaptation and camouflage in action.

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

In this outdoor game, learners role play populations linked in a food chain.

In this activity, learners discover which plants and animals have symbiotic relationships and how this impacts each organism.

In this outdoor, windy day activity, learners "fly" and race leaves along a line to discover which types of leaves catch the most wind. Which leaves are the best fliers? Why?
