Little ones make costumes and act out a rhyme in which there are daisies, bugs, wrens, snakes, and foxes that all interact in a food web. This would be a memorable activity for primary life scientists to participate in as a wrap-up...

Learners explore how gene sequence analysis can be used to examine phylogenetic similarities of different organisms. Students work in groups to simulate a gel electrophoresis separation of fragments using poster board to create their gel.

High schoolers design an underwater vehicle. For this engineering lesson, students will design an underwater robot that includes specific systems for it to function properly. Each group will present their prototype to the class.

In this rock sequence worksheet, students will sequence a list of 10 historical events according to the principle of superposition. Students will label these events on a cross-section diagram.

Young scholars explain the concept of paleoclimatological proxies. In this oxygen isotope lesson, students interpret data and make inferences about climate changes in the geologic past.

Young scholars explain the concept of gene sequence analysis. In this gene lesson, students draw inferences about phylogenetic similarities of different organisms.

In this rock worksheet, students are given a diagram of historical events in rock formation and they label the diagram with the events according to the principle of superposition.

Second graders investigate various types of habitats. In this habitat exploration lesson plan, 2nd graders view a PowerPoint presentation on habitats and explore websites to gather more information. Students choose a habitat to focus on...

Students participate in an experiment to understand how robotic systems can estimate distances.  In this robotic ranger lesson, students measure the the time it takes for and object to move back and forth.  Students will use a...

Students explore the concept of density and buoyancy. In this physics activity, students discover the different factors that affect an object's density and buoyancy in water. Students conduct several investigations to further...

Students explain the Chatelier's Principle. In this pH lesson, students identify factors that resist changes in pH of the ocean and why the ocean is becoming more acidic.

Young scholars explore biology by conducting a nature experiment. In this pond examination lesson, students utilize recycled materials, play-doh and water to recreate a pond and its inhabitants. Young scholars identify the different...

Fourth graders read a book.  For this word problems lesson, 4th graders review the operations addition and subtraction, read the book Sea Sums, learn strategies for determining if they should add or subtract, and solve story problems,
