This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity) about diffusion of small molecules across cell membranes.

This is an educator-led demonstration of microarray technology using a model created from a pizza box and ping-pong balls.

In this activity, learners create a model of a neuron by using colored clay or play dough. Learners use diagrams to build the model and then label the parts on a piece of paper.

In this creative activity, learners will find out what makes an insect an insect by studying examples of insect adaptations and by examining why there are so many different types of insects.

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

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

Learners draw and cut out shapes of organs from construction paper. Then they attach these organs to the body of one learner to make a life-sized map of all the internal organs.

In this activity (page 10), learners explore how molecules self-assemble according to forces of attraction and repulsion.

In this activity, learners construct a model of DNA to better understand the structure of DNA and protein synthesis.

In this hands-on activity, learners will become familiar with the special adaptations of rainforest plants and discover the conditions needed for tropical trees to survive along with what can impinge

In this hands-on activity, learners investigate the functional design of leaves on a tree.

In this activity, learners create a three-dimensional sculpture while examining the characteristics of fish.

In this activity, learners build one or more edible coral polyps and place them together to form a colony.

In this activity (on page 6 of the PDF), learners plot the path of the sun's apparent movement across the sky on two days, with the second day occurring two or three months after the first.

In this craft activity, learners will explore the structure and purpose of antelope horns by constructing their own headband using toilet paper rolls and yarn.

Learners build models to learn about the special cells and structures that plants use to move water from their roots up through the stems and leaves.

In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS Wetlands Activity), learners will model how wetlands act as natural filters for the environment.
