This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity demonstrates the shadow of the Earth as it rises as a dark blue shadow above the eastern horizon.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Farm Animals Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into raising livestock.

This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

In this activity, learners investigate different types of bird beaks using household items which mimic different beak examples.

This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.

In this simulation activity, learners will raise a pack of wolves under ten different conditions: without human interference and with human interference.

In this engineering activity, learners design their own board games.

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

Learners create three solutions with different levels of salinity. They compare the density of these solutions by coloring them and layering them in a clear plastic cup and in a soda bottle.

In this activity, learners role-play the part of lake inhabitants and the aquatic exotics who displace the native species.

In this activity (page 18 of PDF), learners will measure the volume of impact craters created by projectiles of different masses.

In this online Flash game, learners take to the skies in a hot air balloon and are challenged to beat other balloonists' times to the finish line without crashing.

In this computer science activity about finite-state automaton (on page 45 of the PDF), learners use a map and choose various pathways to find Treasure Island.

In this physical sciences activity, learners use science to solve a "crime." Learners collect trace evidence (glitter) and explore its characteristics, such as color, size, shape, and light reflection

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this chemistry demonstration, acid rain is simulated in a petri dish.

In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook

In this outdoor game, learners play the roles of gray or red squirrels gathering and storing a supply of food in "fall" and recovering enough of them to survive the "winter." Learners carry bags repre
