Students will take temperature readings and collect anecdotal evidence to determine how different materials absorb the sun's heat.

Students will explore trees in their outdoor classroom, learn about the important functions that trees serve and devise ways to conserve trees by changing human behaviors: recycling, etc.

Some living things and their offspring have traits that are similar, but not exactly alike. Students will identify the traits of different plants in the garden.

STUDENT ACTIVITY – 1st – NGSSThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.Some living things and their offspring have traits that are similar, but not exactly alike. Students will identify the traits of plants in the outdoors and predict what the traits of their offspring would be.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning to transform Science education for students in under-served communities. .

Students will explore the garden/outdoor classroom for examples of different plant structures and determine how plants use these structures to meet their needs.

STUDENT ACTIVITY - 5th - NCThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.The student will explore the concept of interdependence, the idea that organisms in an ecosystem rely on one another. This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning to transform Science education for students in under-served communities.

STUDENT ACTIVITY – 1st – TXThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.Students will go on a scavenger hunt in the outdoor space and explain how living things they observe rely on other living and non-living things in the environment to survive.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning to transform Science education for students in under-served communities. .

STUDENT ACTIVITY - 5th -- TXThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home. The student will investigate how living and non- living elements interact with one another in an ecosystem by observing interactions in the outdoor space.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning to transform Science education for students in under-served communities.

Students will use their knowledge of life cycles to find evidence of various plant life cycles and compare to that of frogs, beetles, butterflies.

Students will use knowledge of the sun's characteristics to find evidence in the outdoor classroom that support various scientific claims.

STUDENT ACTIVITY – K – GAThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home.Students will recognize the difference between living and non-living things. They will explore outdoors and sort the things they observe into living and non-living.This activity was created by Out Teach (out-teach.org), a nonprofit providing outdoor experiential learning that transforms Science education for students in under-served communities.

In this lesson the students will determine that for an object to be a living thing it must grow and reproduce and it must have its basic needs met.

Students will explore the outdoor classroom for materials that are attracted to magnets.

In this lesson the students will explore the outdoor classroom for materials that are attracted to magnets.

Students will create micro-landforms outside in order to mimic landforms and generate maps.

In this lesson the students will go on a scavenger hunt trying to find objects that have definite physical properties such as shape, mass temperature, texture and flexibility.

In this lesson the students will observe and record properties of rocks based on properties such as size, weight, shape, color or texture.
