In this team design challenge (page 11-18 of PDF), learners design and build a Landing Pod for a model Lunar Rover (previously built in activity on page 1-10 of PDF).

Can gelatin (like Jell-O ®) change the speed of light?

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into the forces of gravity and air pressure.

In this activity learners will plant grass seed and track the growth of the grass over time.

In this activity, learners use a straight line to learn about circles. Learners measure and record the diameter and circumference of different sized cylindrical objects on a chart.

Yes, you can weigh your car by figuring out your wheel's tire pressure combined with the "tire's footprint." You'll need someone with a car, driver's license, and safety in mind.

In this activity, learners will train to increase bone strength and to improve heart and other muscle endurance by performing jump training with a rope, both while stationary and moving.

In this activity, learners will examine various world data maps to combine the information and predict which areas could be tropical rainforests.

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish) is a full inquiry investigation into environmental adaptation.

In this math activity related to light, learners explore why a light, such as a candle or a streetlight, looks dimmer the farther away from it we get.

Learners draw and describe a leaf, and then re-find leaves drawn and described by other learners. Learners can observe leaves outside, or leaves may be brought into the classroom.

In this activity, learners create their own weather forecast map.

This activity helps the learner answer the question: "What environmental problems arise due to animal and human overpopulation and what might need to be done to combat these problems?" Learners play a

Put the math of measurement, numbers, and everyday life into improvisational skits.

In this investigation, learners gather information on various food items during a field trip to a local grocery store.

In this activity, learners are divided into teams.

In this physical sciences activity, learners explore how forensic investigators collect prints from a crime scene. Learners make hand impressions in damp sand and analyze the patterns they observe.

In this data analysis and environmental science activity, learners evaluate the feasibility of wave energy as a practical alternative energy source using ocean observing system (OOS) buoys.

In this activity (pages 5-7), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

Build time sense into the schedule by asking learners to predict what can happen in a certain amount of time: We have 20 minutes before outdoor time. What can you get done?
