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

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

This activity is on page 3 (continued on page 2) of the pdf, part of the Simple Machines Discovery Box. In this fun activity, learners "create" a complex machine by simulating the parts in action.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

In this activity (on page 2), one person "programs" the other like a robot to move through a space, trying to get them to avoid obstacles and reach a goal.

In this small-group activity, learners assume the roles of pilots, air traffic controllers, and NASA scientists to solve five Air Traffic Control (ATC) problems.

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

This activity (on pages 38-43) has learners simulate the way scientists track and map the movement of otters in the wild using radio trackers.

In this activity, learners experience some of the challenges of "tele-operating" a robotic vehicle on another planet when they design and execute a series of commands to guide a human "rover" through

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.

Pairs of learners play the roles of programmer and robot. The programmer gives specific directions to the robot to accomplish a simple task (e.g. walk across the room and pick up a pencil).

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.
