Make a Dinosaur Model
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons, anatomy, and locomotion. Learners compare and contrast dinosaur skeletons and drawings.

If Trash Could Talk
Source Institutions
Ancient trash tells archaeologists a lot about the past. In this activity, learners take a close look inside their trash can and think about the clues it offers about their lives.

Animals are Amazing!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use measurement concepts to make models of what their body parts might look like if they were a snake or a chameleon.

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.

Woodlands Map
Source Institutions
This is a culminating activity which allows learners to summarize what they know about Woodlands Native Americans by creating illustrations and map symbols for a large outline map (see related Activit

Seashell Journal
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make homemade journals featuring seashell rubbings. First, learners transfer the texture of a seashell onto a piece of paper using a crayon.

Dinosaur Homes
Source Institutions
In this activity about dinosaurs and survival, learners use scrap materials to create a miniature dinosaur habitat that includes a food source, water source, and shelter.

Dinosaur Sock Puppet
Source Institutions
In this activity about dinosaurs, learners first participate in a group discussion about where and when dinosaurs lived, how big they were, and who studies them and how.

Dinosaur Dig
Source Institutions
This is an activity about dinosaurs, fossils, and the work of paleontologists. Learners use hand tools (paint brushes, scoops, and sifters) to unearth fossil specimens in tubs of birdseed.

Evolution in Plane Sight
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners model directed evolution by making paper fly. Learners construct and fly paper airplanes.

Is it a Fish?
Source Institutions
This activity is on page 8 of the pdf, part of the Sea Life Discovery Box. This is an activity exploring the characteristics of fish.

Bird Beaks
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate different types of bird beaks using household items which mimic different beak examples.

Polar Bear Glove
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how animal in cold areas stay warm.

Designer Seeds
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will examine a variety of seeds, describe them, and determine how they are dispersed.

Tweak Your Beak
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how different bird beaks work and discover what birds can eat based on their beak shape.

Create Your Own Time Capsule
