Learners complete a series of hands-on and investigative activities to explore cumulus clouds.

In this activity, learners help identify native and non-native plant species, learn about invasive species, and determine how native plants provide a healthier habitat.

In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.

Learners practice their taxonomy skills by sorting a group of fasteners (e.g. rubber bands, buttons, paper clips, screws) into different categories.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design and build the tools they need to survive being shipwrecked on a deserted island.

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.

In this artistic activity, learners blow up a smaller picture into a larger one, by using a grid.

In this activity about magnetism (page 11 of the pdf), learners will experiment with magnets to explore how opposite poles attract and similar poles repel in magnetism.

In this craft activity, learners will recognize, name, and compare the fractions 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 by constructing a penguin out of portions of paper circles.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing a simple piano out of wood and craft sticks.

In this activity, learners construct bug models that "jitter" all over the table with just a battery, motor, and counterweight.

In this activity, learners explore the great pump in their chests--the human heart!

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.

In this chemistry activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners make an acid-base indicator using cabbage. Learners then explore how various subtances react with this indicator.

In this activity, learners are challenged to track and record the passage of colored pom poms (representing genes) through generations of a family using a pedigree.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity), learners will look for a relationship between skull size and body length among various dinosaurs.
