Students will explore tectonic plate boundaries and different types of seismic waves generated by earthquakes.

Using a model, students will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

What types of natural resources are used to make the objects we use in everyday life? Play bingo to find out!

By building your own seismograph to document shaking, you'll learn how scientists measure earthquake intensity.

How can you turn a snail, worm, or roly-poly into an object of inquiry for a young learner? Ask a few questions!

You can make and test predictions using the simplest of invertebrates.

Want to play a board game to learn about rock formation? Explore geologic processes, fast and slow.

By conducting a survey of an outdoor environment, students will design solutions for preventing marine debris.

What kinds of everyday objects contain carbon? This introductory activity will help you get it straight!

How does the finite amount of carbon on this planet move around in the environment, from one place to another?

Can you create a model of how carbon flows between the biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere?

What are the consequences of mining for fossil fuels?

By sorting our waste into different bins, we can make a huge impact.
