Fossilized Dinosaur Teeth Adaptations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.
Habitat Adaptation Matchup
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in small groups to match various marine animals with their different environments.
Tide Pool Survival
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners observe tide pool animals in a touch tank to consider how they survive.
Wetlands
Source Institutions
Learners create a model of a wetland to observe how it absorbs and filters water from the environment.
Extreme Lifestyles
Source Institutions
In this matching game, learners study the limits of life on Earth to see what other places in the solar system might sustain microbial life.
Invent a Plant
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.
Habitable Worlds
Source Institutions
In this group activity, learners consider environmental conditions—temperature, presence of water, atmosphere, sunlight, and chemical composition—on planets and moons in our solar system to determine
The Wave
Source Institutions
In this multi-step experiment (page 4 of pdf), learners study tide pools, and then drop a "wave" (a 4-pound bag of beans or birdseed) on a shell to mimic the force of crashing surf on tide pool animal
Marine Ecosystems
Source Institutions
In the wild, small crustaceans known as brine shrimp live in marine habitats such as saltwater lakes.
Freshwater Ecosystems
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a freshwater ecosystem in a large plastic bottle. Learners cut and prepare bottles, then fill with water, aquatic plants, snails and fish.
