This is a simple and fun activity for learners to explore water and colors.

In this design challenge, learners use their creativity and imagination to design and test a wildlife crossing for their favorite animal.

In this activity, learners discover how frogs' bodies change while growing from a tadpole to a frog. Learners create a simple craft that gives a visual display of the metamorphosis process.

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

In this activity (on pages 36-39), learners make a model of a watershed out of paper, then run water down the mountain to simulate how rainfall and pollution affect watersheds.

In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.
