Learners test two jars containing soil, one covered and one open, for changes in temperature. After placing the jars in the Sun, learners discover that the covered jar cools down more slowly.

Learners test two jars, one containing plain air and one containing carbon dioxide gas, to see their reactions to temperature changes.

In this simple activity, learners see the production of a gas, which visibly fills up a balloon placed over the neck of a bottle.

In this inquiry-based lesson, learners measure the biomass of trees, calculate the carbon stored by the trees, and use this information to create recommendations about using trees for carbon sequestra

In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

In this demonstration, learners observe vinegar and baking soda creating carbon dioxide (CO2) in a bottle. The gas is poured out of a bottle onto a candle flame, putting out the candle.

In this activity (on page 142 of the PDF), learners will compare breathing rates before and after hyperventilation to explore how reduced carbon dioxide levels in the blood lower the need to breathe.

Learners test two jars containing hot water, one covered with plastic and one open, for changes in temperature.

In this activity (on page 146 of the PDF), learners will explore the effects of increased carbon dioxide in the bloodstream.

In this game, learners are volcanoes that must complete several steps to erupt. Starting at home plate, learners draw cards until they have enough points to move to first base.

Learners test two jars of ice water, one covered and one open, for changes in temperature. After placing the jars in the sun, learners discover that the covered jar cools down more slowly.

In this activity, learners explore Boyle's Law and discover that water will boil at room temperature if its pressure is lowered.

In this activity, learners act out the flow of blood in the human body! A great way to get learners up and moving while learning about the circulatory system.
