This outdoor activity/field trip requires a place where minnows swim, such as a local pond or brook.

In this activity (2nd on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which foot is more dominant. In other words, are they right-footed or left-footed?

In this cooperative game, learners devise strategies about sharing a small space with each other.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.

Dig a hole, line it, fill it with fresh water, and you have a water hole: a good place to study colonization.

In this outdoor activity, learners dig for and collect isopods (sometimes known as "roly-poly bugs" or "potato bugs" and other names).

In this astronomy activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will examine the effects of gravity on a person’s pulse and explore how gravity can differ from planet to planet.

In this activity (1st on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their hands is more dominant. In other words, are they right-handed or left-handed?

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

In this outdoor activity, learners search for lichen, a combination of a fungus and an alga living together. Lichen grow where most other plants cannot, on rocks, the trunks of trees, logs and sand.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

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

In this activity, learners work in teams to study the observation skills essential to scientific research.

In this family or group inquiry activity, learners use their senses to explore a local forest or woodland.

In this outdoor beach activity, learners use a variety of "beaks" (such as trowels, spoons or sticks) to hunt for organisms that shore birds might eat.

In this activity, learners investigate circulation and measure their own your heartbeat. A heart rate, or pulse, is the number of times the heart beats per minute.
