In this math lesson, learners model exponential decay and exponential growth using M&M's, paper folding, and African rhino population data.

In this four-part activity, learners explore light and sound through a variety of hands-on investigations.

In this activity, learners construct a robot-like hand to demonstrate how data is collected when using robotic technology.

In this activity, learners play an evolution card game to see how selective pressures can affect an organism's evolution.

Learners create their own piece of history by decorating, shattering, and piecing together a flowerpot "artifact".

In this on site "field trip" activity (located on pages 6-9 of PDF), learners get hands-on experience identifying building materials by playing "Building Bingo".

In this experiment using sprigs of Elodea, learners will observe a natural process that removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from Earth's atmosphere.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Light and Color Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into mixing colors with light.

In this activity, learners use a nail and magnet wire to build an electromagnet, which controls the movements of a paper dancer.

In this activity, learners stain fabrics--on purpose!

Learners work in groups to design and build a tower out of balsa wood. As a motivator, they can compete to build a tower with the highest strength-to-weight ratio.

In this two-part math lesson, learners investigate problems that foster algebraic thinking across content strands. In the first part, learners explore even and odd numbers linked to quilts.

In this activity, learners will investigate how shorebirds and seabirds are extremely vulnerable to changes in their environment, whether human-induced or otherwise.

Use geometry, a ruler, and a steady hand to create these amazing unfurling paper folds!

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

In this activity, learners model erosion using a clear shoebox and sand or soil.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to explore how water flows up from a tree's roots to its leafy crown.

Each group of learners uses everyday materials, such as paper, toothpicks, and tape to design and construct a structure intended to support the weight of a cinder block for 30 seconds.

In this activity (Page 25 of PDF), learners investigate the evolution of wheat by creating dough from different flours, observing the samples of dough as they rise, and then baking the dough.

In this environmental science lesson, learners will examine hazardous chemicals and their effects on human health and the environment.
