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

In this math lesson, learners practice reading charts and graphs by creating and interpreting glyphs.

In this oceanography and data collection activity, learners cast real time sea state conditions using buoys from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center.

In this activity, learners calculate the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere by using steel wool's ability to rust.

In this activity, learners will engineer a new shape and use it to create a new pattern with no wasted space.

In this indoor and/or outdoor activity, learners make an anemometer (an instrument to measure wind speed) out of a protractor, a ping pong ball and a length of thread or fishing line.

This is a quick activity that shows how large amounts of rock and sediment are added to the edge of continents during subduction.

This activity gets learners looking at 6-sided shapes in nature, including the cells of a beehive, as well as other shapes.

This activity introduces learners to Native Americans as people who depended upon nature in the past and continue to emphasize the importance of nature in the present.

In this activity, learners make a camouflaged butterfly to hide outside for others to find.

In this activity, learners will examine various world data maps to combine the information and predict which areas could be tropical rainforests.

In this activity, learners discover that one way to cool an object in the presence of a heat source is to increase the distance from it or change the angle at which it is faced.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this activity, learners explore how and why rainbows form by creating rainbows in a variety of ways using simple materials. Learners create rainbows indoors and outdoors.

This lesson plan enables learners to explore the differences between weather and climate.

In this activity on page 60, learners examine and simulate wildlife entanglement by experiencing what it might be like to be a marine animal trapped in debris.

In this activity related to climate change, learners examine albedo and the ice albedo feedback effect as it relates to snow, ice, and the likely results of reduced snow and ice cover on global temper

Learners combine different plant solutions -- made from fruits, vegetables, and flowers -- with equal amounts of vinegar (acid), water (neutral), and ammonia (base).

In this activity, learners plant seeds and watch them sprout and grow inside a CD case.

In this activity, learners use information gathered from a variety of sources to design and make their own insect.
