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

In this creativity-based activity, learners imagine what the Earth will look like in the near and distant future, then design their own future habitat and creatures that may live there.

In this activity, learners investigate feeding relationships. Learners complete a food web and then make a mobile to represent a food chain.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners use art supplies to build models of insects, both real or imagined.

In this multi-faceted game (on pages 25-35), learners recreate what happens to creatures in the Brazilian rain forest as they grow from egg to adult—especially those that use fallen, empty Brazil nut

In this activity, learners plant seeds and watch them sprout and grow inside a CD case.

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.

In this activity, learners cut out and assemble wheels to explore how variations in fish body structures (mouth shape/position/teeth, body shape, tail shape, and coloration patterns) allow fish to sur

In this activity, learners simulate a wolf and its habitat and observe what happens when the limiting factors change over time.

In this activity, some learners pretend to be wolves, while the other learners pretend to be the prey of the wolf. The goal of the simulation is to have the wolves work together to survive.

In this activity, learners create their own bird species using arts and crafts materials. The bird call recordings are not online so the introduction activity can't be done, but everything else can.

In this science and language arts activity, learners study fish anatomy and make their very own 3D paper fish.

While playing a game, learners discover how the Endangered Species Act works in the United States. Learners move along a game board by answering questions correctly.

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

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Rabbits), learners will visit a zoo, aquarium, or pet store to view a variety of fish.

In this activity, learners explore the web of connections among living and non-living things.

This activity (on pages 19-24) introduces learners to the rain forest's layers—emergent, canopy, understory, and forest floor—and has learners make paper lianas (vines that live attached to trees) and

In this family or group activity, learners create a nature journal by visiting a local nature center or backyard, observing creatures in their natural habitats, and sketching what they see.

Learners will explore the scientific mystery behind a disappearing group of trees by examining data and attempting to explain the decline.
