Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.

In this outdoor archaeology activity, learners use mathematical skills and scientific inquiry to generate and process information from their own excavation site.

In this activity, learners interpret three trackways and use measurements and a formula to infer the relative speed of dinosaurs.

In this experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

In this activity, learners map their world by drawing a plan of their bedroom.

In this nighttime, outdoor activity, learners keep a record of what they see in the sky by drawing constellations, the Moon, and making note of the weather and conditions each day.

This activity helps learners understand how the angle of the Sun affects temperatures around the globe.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

Learners observe two model atmospheres -- one with normal atmospheric composition and another with an elevated concentration of carbon dioxide.

In this activity, learners observe the moon each night for a month and draw their observations in a Moon Watch Log.

This three-part activity shows learners how to build three meteorology tools: a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a barometer.
