Mini Glacier Meltdown
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation about the different causes of glacial melt.
Race to the Dollar
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners play a card game to practice adding coins quickly, just like a banker. First, learners create coin cards. Next, the cards are dealt to each player.
Calcium Collage
Source Institutions
In this activity (on pages 11-14 of PDF), learners cut out pictures from magazines of foods that help make bones strong and glue the pictures to a paper bone.
Garden Poles
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build large-scale structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with garden poles and tape.
A Recipe for Traits
Source Institutions
In this genetics activity, learners create and decode a “DNA recipe” for a dog by randomly selecting strips of paper that represent DNA.
Traits Bingo
Source Institutions
In this game, learners cross off or color bingo squares in response to questions about their traits.
Stem Cell Differentiation Game
Source Institutions
This game uses a modified Uno deck to review concepts related to stem cell research and diabetes.
Cylinders and Scale
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.
Fill it to Capacity
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners rotate through six estimating and measuring centers. First, learners read the book, "Room for Ripley" by Stuart J.
Symmetry Fold-Overs
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners experiment with the concept of symmetry.
Balance Challenge
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, learners take a balance challenge to measure their average balance time. As they collect data, they investigate how practice and repetition improve their balance time.
Moving Model Glacier
Source Institutions
In this goopy activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will model glacial movement with “gak,” a white glue and liquid starch mixture.
Work for Your Money
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners earn "money" by completing simple tasks. Learners complete as many "jobs" as possible in a set amount of time.
Storm Water Runoff Pollution
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 8 of the PDF) introduces learners to the concept of Non-point Source Pollution--what happens when rain washes garbage and other pollutants into rivers and lakes.
What Do Birds Do?
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into bird behaviors.
How High (or Low!) Can You Go?
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners play a game using their number sense to make the highest or lowest number possible. Use this activity to explore place value and/or decimals.
Pendulum Time
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how the pendulum has been a reliable way to keep time for centuries.
Clippy Island: An Investigation into Natural Selection
Source Institutions
In this activity, leaners will observe the process of natural selection on a population of birds called 'Springbeaks' over four seasons of breeding on an isolated environment called 'Clippy Island.' L
Jet Propulsion
Source Institutions
In this two-part activity, learners work in pairs to examine the four basic stages of a turbine engine.
Arduino Blink Challenge
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore computer programming and the impact of computers on society. Learners build and test a program to turn a light on and off using an Arduino board.
