In this math activity, learners use a variety of sensory modalities to gain experiences with identifying, describing and creating repeating patterns.

This great "re-use it" activity will demonstrate how to transform a greeting card into a box. Once constructed, the box can have many uses like holding special notes or keepsakes.

In this outdoor activity, learners investigate the relationship between the slope of a trail and soil erosion.

In this outdoor biology and math activity, learners estimate the size of a population of organisms too numerous to count.

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

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 how and why rainbows form by creating rainbows in a variety of ways using simple materials. Learners create rainbows indoors and outdoors.

In this activity, learners will measure the length of a shadow and use the distance from the equator to calculate the circumference of the earth.

In this fun group activity involving music and movement, learners are introduced to the idea that many insects walk by using their legs to create "alternating triangles." Learners sing the "Ants Go Ma

In this demonstration, learners explore a variation of a Foucault pendulum, but upside down.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

In this 6-7 day investigation, learners begin with an introduction to seamounts that are present in the Gulf of Alaska.

This activity helps learners understand how the angle of the Sun affects temperatures around the globe.

In this design-based lesson, learners study flood dynamics as they modify a riverbed with blockages or levees to simulate real-world scenarios.

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities.

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 art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

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

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 environmental engineering activity, learners build windmills using everyday items. The first challenge is to build windmills that spin when placed in front of a fan.
