In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

In this outdoor activity, learners investigate the relationship between the slope of a trail and soil erosion.

In this activity, learners explore phosphorescence and how certain materials can absorb and store energy from a light source.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

In this robotics activity, learners find ways to express emotions and feelings using only body movements, not facial expressions.

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this activity, learners incorporate a simple switch into a battery/bulb circuit. Learners will use their knowledge of circuits to design and make their own switches using common materials.

Learners design their own experiment to explore the permeability of different materials such as soil, sand, gravel, and marbles.

In this activity, learners experiment and collect data during a simulation of the fluid shifts experienced by astronauts' bodies in microgravity.

This activity encourages learners to focus on the natural environment of the Eastern Woodlands before the arrival of European settlers.

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

In this activity (located on page 7 of PDF), learners explore how Silly Putty was first invented and then attempt to make a batch of their own.

In this activity, learners investigate how increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the burning of fossil fuels is changing the acidity (pH) of the ocean and affecting coral reefs and other marin

In this activity, learners make an electromagnet motor to demonstrate the most basic method of changing electrical energy into mechanical energy.

In this lesson plan, learners examine some of the of greenhouse gas emissions sources in their community.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of friction and how ball bearings reduce friction.

In this activity, learners explore the "nuts and bolts" of gene chips.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this technology activity, learners explore digital imaging and pixels. Learners "transmit" an image to a partner by creating an image on grid paper.
