Fossilized Dinosaur Teeth Adaptations
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use models of fossilized dinosaur teeth to understand how dinosaur teeth were used.
Kelsey: Clues of the Dig Site Map
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and a dig site. Learners work in groups to analyze a dig site map and match bones to a skeletal drawing of Kelsey (a Triceratops).
Make a Dinosaur Model
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.
Natural Selection in Protected and Unprotected Populations
Source Institutions
In this simulation, learners model two elephant seal populations and how they change over time. Learners start with cards representing a variety of seals.
If You Lived in a Forest
Source Institutions
This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.
Eat Like a Bird
Source Institutions
Birds' beaks are designed to allow birds to get the most of whatever food they need. In this activity, learners get an idea of how different beak shapes suit different food sources.
Build a Borneo Glider
Source Institutions
In this inquiry-based activity, learners investigate the basic forces of flight as they construct their own paper glider that represents a rainforest creature from Borneo (large, tropical island in So
Tomb Mapping
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners examine the culture and history of the tomb site.
Looking Back Through Time
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create their own archaeological profiles.
What's in a Dinosaur Name?

Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils and skeletons. First, learners listen to "Tyrannosaurus Rex" by Daniel Cohen to learn about T. rex dinosaurs specifically.
Design-a-Fish
Source Institutions
In this science and language arts activity, learners study fish anatomy and make their very own 3D paper fish.
Layered Fossil Parfait: Deeper is Older
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils by making an edible treat. First, learners read "Dinosaur Bones" by Aliki to examine how fossils are formed.
Digging Deeper!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons and anatomy. Learners make observations about a T. rex skeleton diagram and then measure the skeleton length and width.
The Wave
Source Institutions
In this multi-step experiment (page 4 of pdf), learners study tide pools, and then drop a "wave" (a 4-pound bag of beans or birdseed) on a shell to mimic the force of crashing surf on tide pool animal
