In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

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

In this activity, learners will build a bee hotel for pollinators. Learners will explore building and ecology through this activity.

In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners explore the concept of population density.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

In this outdoor game, learners simulate a herd of deer trying to survive in an area called the "home range." Learners explore the concept of "carrying capacity"—what size population of an organism can

In this outdoor activity, learners construct bird feeders and set them up at to investigate bird behavior for one or two weeks. Multiple feeder designs are suggested.

In this geology activity learners build a "squeeze box," which allows them to compress layers of sediment. This is a great way to investigate folding and faulting in the Earth.

In this outdoor, ocean-side activity, learners investigate the distribution of organisms in the upper region of the intertidal zone.

In this three part activity, learners explore and experiment with shadows to learn about the Sun's relative motion in the sky.

The purpose of this lab is to recognize that the answers to some of society's industrial challenges may lie right in our own backyards.

In this activity, learners will engineer three different parachutes to test how well each one works.

In this interactive and informative group activity, learners use packages of M&M's to illustrate the difference between weather and climate.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS Wetlands Activity), learners will model how wetlands act as natural filters for the environment.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation about the different causes of glacial melt.

In this activity, learners calculate their water usage (in cups and galloons) during an average shower. Learners also chart and analyze water usage during showers in their households.

In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

In this activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity), learners will identify a group of deciduous trees to study.
