In this activity, learners examine body parts (including skin, scales, and skulls) from fish, mammals and reptiles. Questions are provided to help encourage learner investigations.

In this activity about backyard habitats learners create a safe and toad-friendly environment near their own home.

In this crime science activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners will explore the uniqueness of fingerprints. The will learn components of fingerprints as well as why fingerprints are left behind.

In this activity, learners discover why some nanoscale science and technology is done in the controlled environment of a clean room, what clean rooms are like, and how scientists help keep the clean r

In this activity, learners discover how bats use echolocation to get information about objects in their environment. During the activity, one learner whispers into a tube.

In this arts and crafts activity about animals and animal characteristics, learners will design animal hats and role-play as animals.

In this art meets science activity, learners pack silver, ball-shaped ornaments in a single layer in a box to create an array of spherical reflectors.

In this activity, learners explore their eye pupils and how they change.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and experiment with different materials to create bug hats.

In this activity, learners create three-dimensional shapes by making some origami models of simple boxes and containers.

This is an activity which will allow learners to gain an understanding of lemur behavior through observation and role play.

In this optics activity, learners explore how many objects they can see in a set of mirrors (hinged like a book) at various angles.

In this activity, learners use an old CD to construct a spectroscope, a device that separates light into its component colors.

In this activity, multiple learners will use a game with ballloons to learn about coqui frog behavior.

In this physics activity, learners will explore the concept of buoyancy, especially as it relates to density.

In this activity (23rd on the page), learners conduct an experiment to examine memory and learning.

Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.

In this activity (25th on the page) about learning and memory, learners explore a training method that animal trainers employ called "shaping." Working in pairs, learners will attempt to "shape" each

In this activity, learners create a cylindrical mirror to see themselves as others see them.
