In this activity, learners slide shapes to create unusual tiled patterns.

Learners explore the relationship between energy consumption, population, and carbon emissions in the countries of the Americas.

In this inquiry-based learning activity, learners design, build, and test their own ramps. They are introduced to a variety of materials and explore putting them together.

This activity lets learners participate in the process of reconstructing a phylogenetic tree and introduces them to several core bioinformatics concepts, particularly in relation to evolution.

In this simulation, learners become birds different beak types. Learners use various tools to represent beaks to pick up seeds and place them in a petri dish.

In this activity, learners build penetrometers to test leaf toughness. Biologists measure leaf toughness to study the feeding preferences of insects and bugs.

Historically, sea floor mapping (bathymetry) was done by soundings.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this math lesson, learners practice measurement skills as they examine a soap bubble print. Learners follow a recipe to make a soap bubble solution.

In this activity (on page 146 of the PDF), learners will explore the effects of increased carbon dioxide in the bloodstream.

In this physical sciences activity, learners explore how passive solar design increases energy efficiency.

In this small-group activity, learners assume the roles of pilots, air traffic controllers, and NASA scientists to solve five Air Traffic Control (ATC) problems.

In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

This lesson focuses on surface area and how the shape of sugar crystals may differ as they are grown from sugars of different coarseness.

In this activity, learners act as epidemiologists by mapping the prevalence of HIV/AIDS worldwide.

This lesson focuses on how to measure at the nanoscale and provides learners with an understanding how small a nanometer really is.

In this activity, learners will determine if the frequency and intensity of hurricanes are changing using real data from the National Hurricane Center.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

In this activity, learners dissect a piece of pizza to learn about nutrients important for health.
