Lava Layering
In this activity, learners discover how geologists use stratigraphy, the study of layered rock, to understand the sequence of geological events. Learners use baking soda, vinegar, and different colored play dough to model how "lava" flows. This lesson plan includes background information, play dough recipes, student worksheets, and an optional volcano mapping extension activity.
Flower Powder
In this outdoor activity, learners use artificial bees and paper models of flowers to find out how bees transfer pollen from one flower to another. Background information discusses bees and other pollinators such as hummingbirds and butterflies, and describes the way bees move pollen around. Learners use pollen boards to pick up pollen from real flowers, make paper flowers to learn how real flowers are structured, use model flowers and artificial bees to act out bees visiting flowers for pollen,
A Espirales de Colores!
En esta actividad sobre la densidad de los la_quidos, los participantes ven si las gotas de colorante se hunden en diferentes soluciones de agua. Mezclan agua con sal o aza_car y observan el colorante en la solucian. Anotaran cual es mas denso haciendo un dibujo del colorante en el agua.
Crayfish Investigations
This activity has learners interacting with live crayfish, but could be adapted for a variety of similar hardy and interesting organisms. Instructions are provided for facilitating free and guided observations, including how to make explicit things learners wonder and notice, and sharing them by posting them on index cards. There is extensive background about how to buy and maintain crayfish, along with general "Crayfish Information Cards" for learners.

Para ser un buen pitcher uno ha de ser capaz de imprimir un cierto ritmo en la bola cuando la lance. Este vídeo enseña cómo hacerlo. (.43)
Una de las cosas más difícles de ser un pitcher es ser capaz de mantener el equilibrio cuando se lanza la bola. Aquí te enseñan un ejercicio con el que conseguirás una mayor estabilidad cuando la lances. (1:55)
The teacher in this short video discusses the factors that influence how fast reactions take place. It's a good introduction to kinetics. She doesn't go into detail and solve actual problem, but this is a good foundation (03:05).
Part of kinetics is understanding reaction mechanisms. The teacher in this video introduces mechanims first by discussing the important terms: complex reaction, intermediate, catalyst, and the rate determining step (06:06).
In this online interactive, learners are introduced to the basic function of Geographic Information System (GIS) maps in relation to national parks. Recognizable park boundaries are presented and learners are given the option to add layers such as lakes, rivers and visitor centers, until the learner is able to identify the park map from a list of choices.
In this activity, learners discover that one way to cool an object in the presence of a heat source is to increase the distance from it or change the angle at which it is faced. Learners perform an experiment that measures how the heat experienced by a test subject changes as the distance or the viewing angle changes. Learners distinguish which effect is more important for determining the seasons on Earth. Learners examine how NASA's MESSENGER mission to Mercury takes advantage of these passive
