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).

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

In this activity, learners experiment and observe how the color of materials that cover the Earth affects the amounts of sunlight our planet absorbs.

In this activity described on pages 2-3 of the PDF, participants debate whether there there's life elsewhere in the universe.

In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

In this indoor and/or outdoor activity, learners make an anemometer (an instrument to measure wind speed) out of a protractor, a ping pong ball and a length of thread or fishing line.

In this pencil and paper activity, learners work in pairs and simulate how astronomical spacecraft and computers create images of objects in space.

In this activity, learners will examine various world data maps to combine the information and predict which areas could be tropical rainforests.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "The Littlest Dinosaurs" by Bernard Most. Then, learners estimate the size of a Triceratops and T.

In this activity on page 24, learners perform experiments to examine whether or not trash can float, blow around, or wash away.

In this math activity, based on the research of famed astronomer Frank Drake, learners calculate the possibilities of finding intelligent life elsewhere in the universe besides Earth.

In this matching game, learners study the limits of life on Earth to see what other places in the solar system might sustain microbial life.

What causes frost to form on the outside of a cold container? In this activity, learners discover that liquid water can change states and freeze to become ice.

In this activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity), learners will identify a group of deciduous trees to study.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity), learners will see the effects of convection and understand what makes hot air balloons rise.

Build a hydrometer (measures the density of a liquid) using a pipet or eyedropper.

In this activity, learners examine the culture and history of the tomb site.

In this activity, learners explore the relationship between cooling water vapor and condensation. Learners investigate condensation forming on the outside of a cold cup.

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

In this activity, learners explore the relative size of the Sun and Earth as well as the distance between them.
