In this activity, learners work in small groups to match various marine animals with their different environments.

Learners use several types of insect sampling and collection equipment to make an insect collection. Learners can collect insects from their schoolyard or yard at home.

In this activity (page 12), learners apply the concepts of pixilation and pointillism to the world of biomedical science.

In this outdoor activity, learners first explore lizard feeding behavior by creating a "lizard rig" to dangle different objects in front of live lizards and see which objects the lizards try to bite.

In this mechanical engineering activity, learners design shadow puppets with moving parts and use them to tell stories.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

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

In this activity, learners explore how acids can dissolve eggshells leaving behind a membrane-covered bouncy egg.

In this activity, learners explore the invisible infrared radiation from an electric heater.

In this chemistry activity, learners explore the amount of copper in a new penny. Learners use toilet bowl cleaner to hollow out the interior of a penny with zinc inside.

This exercise is designed to teach young learners the different parts of a plant (root, stems, leaves, flowers, fruit, and seeds), the basic functions of each part, and to show that tiny microscopic o

In this activity, learners investigate the sense of hearing and plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this optics activity, learners examine how a transparent material such as glass or water can actually reflect light better than any mirror.

Using indirect methods, learners determine the shape and size of a piece of carpet hidden under a piece of plywood.

In this activity, learners use pedigree and jigsaw puzzles to explore how scientists use genetic information from a family to identify a gene associated with a genetic disorder.

In this simple exploratory activity (1st activity on the page), blindfolded learners try to identify mystery items by smell.

In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

In this activity, learners will make seed orbs to grow new trees and plants. Learners will explore ecology and life cycles as well as stewardship through this activity.

This event guide features three related explorations in which learners investigate the following science concepts: how you design and build a structure helps determine how strong it will be; different

In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.
