In this activity, learners are invited to imagine the park of their dreams!

In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.

This activity (located on page 8 of the PDF) introduces learners to the concept of Non-point Source Pollution--what happens when rain washes garbage and other pollutants into rivers and lakes.

In this activity, learners consider how oil spills behave in the ocean and what impact they have on marine wildlife.

In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection by encouraging them to formulate questions that can be answered through scientific investi

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.

In this activity, learners are introduced to tree rings by examining a cross section of a tree, also known as a “tree cookie.” They discover how tree age can be determined by studying the rings and ho

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

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this outdoor activity, learners design devices that will catch prey or gather plants.

In this experiment, learners examine the way oil affects bird feathers and test different cleanup methods to find out which works best.

In this lesson, learners will understand the concepts behind endangered and extinct animals and develop their own conservation plan to save three endangered species.

In this design challenge activity, learners invent an emergency shelter that can fit a person and is sturdy and quick to build.

In this thought-provoking activity, learners plan a hypothetical project to build and operate wind turbines in their community.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.

In this activity, learners simulate the separation techniques that materials recovery facilities (MRFs) use and then design their own series of recycling techniques.

In this math lesson, learners apply the concepts of ratio and proportion to the capture-recapture statistical procedure.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Earthquakes) is a full inquiry investigation into aerial imagery.

April showers bring May flowers, but what do coastal storms bring?
