This modeling activity allows learners to discover for themselves what Mendel uncovered in his famous pea experiments.

In this physics activity, learners conduct two experiments to explore free-falling.

In this outdoor biology and math activity, learners estimate the size of a population of organisms too numerous to count.

Learners manipulate opaque, sealed boxes and attempt to determine their interior structures. Each box contains a moving ball and one or more fixed barriers.

In this outdoor activity and game, learners explore how animals adapt for survival through coloration, markings and camouflage.

This activity allows learners to explore the scientific method in an open-ended fashion, using the 4-P Approach to Science Inquiry developed by the University of Wisconsin, Beloit.

In this outdoor, sunny day activity, learners experiment with paper leaf models to discover how some desert plants conserve water.

During this interactive "survival" game, students learn about the importance of camouflage and how it helps animals to blend into their surroundings, as either predator or prey.

In this set of outdoor games, learners play the role of monkeys that are trying to get enough resources (food, shelter, and space) to survive.

In this cooperative learning activity, learners visit ten stations and are challenged to think critically about various conservation questions and issues.

From the Weather Watchers featured theme on the CYBERCHASE website. Learners will conduct experiments to discover how air temperature and humidity work together to make condensation, dew, and fog.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

In this activity, learners make or use pre-made clay beams to scale and proportion. Specifically, they discover that when you scale up proportionally (i.e.

In this outdoor activity and fun race, learners first find the most common type of tree in a forest site.

This simulation of laparoscopic surgery enables learners to practice and to learn this modern surgical technique.

In this interactive board game, learners "hire" different types of scientists to help canine character Ruff Ruffman solve unusual problems.

In this outdoor activity, learners use a mapping technique to become oriented to the major features of an outdoor site.

In this math lesson, learners identify the relationship between the number of sides in a regular polygon and the number of struts needed to make each polygon rigid.

This paper describes a working-model demonstration of Ernest Rutherford's 1911 experiment about the nature of atoms.

In this outdoor activity, learners search for the warmest and coolest, windiest and calmest, wettest and driest, and brightest and darkest spots in an area.
