In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners build one or more edible coral polyps and place them together to form a colony.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

Learners build models to learn about the special cells and structures that plants use to move water from their roots up through the stems and leaves.

In this activity, learners explore density, convection, stratification, and, by inference, the melting of icebergs. Learners make hypotheses, test their hypotheses, and explain their observations.

In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

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

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

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

¡En esta tira cómica, Mateo y Cientina son detectives! Ellos usan sus destrezas investigativas para identificar de dónde provinieron algunas muestras de arena.

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 use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

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.

In this activity, learners sort different natural phenomena into categories (they occur on Earth, on the Moon, or on both), and then model how energy moves during a quake using spring toys.

In this activity, learners model, on a human-sized board game, how changes in water temperature may affect fish distributions and, ultimately, fisheries.
