In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners use aluminum trays and wooden blocks to form stream tables to investigate river formations in two different landscape scenarios.

In this activity, learners investigate passive solar building design with a focus solely on heating.

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this activity, learners act as the Earth and observe how different angles between the Sun, Earth, and Moon affect the phases of the moon we see each month.

In this weather-related activity, learners make a portable cloud in a bottle.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of magnetic fields by inserting a small, strong magnet into a sphere.

In this activity, learners participate in several full-body interactive games to model the process of self-assembly in nature and nanotechnology.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cactus Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into how some desert birds keep their cool.

In this two-part activity about the connection between the lupine plant and butterflies, learners first read "Miss Rumphius," a storybook about lupine by Barbara Cooney.

Some bugs can walk on the surface of a lake, stream, river, pond or ocean.

This is part 1 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity. In this activity, learners explore how sedimentary rocks form.

In this earth science activity, learners conduct a series of short experiments to explore how rocks change.

In this activity, learners design and build a simple wind vane —one of the oldest kinds of weather tools— and use it to show wind direction.

In this activity, learners simulate the behavior of the atmosphere.

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Sea Turtles Activity), learners will model how a sea turtle population changes over time, from eggs to adults, using puffed rice.

In this activity, learners use crayons to draw conclusions about rocks and the rock cycle.

In this activity, learners explore a bucket of sand and beach objects.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.
