In this lesson, students will explain their observations and understanding of various plant's external parts and how they help the plant survive in its environment.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
In this lesson students will use knowledge of the needs of living things to examine their outdoor classroom for these factors that help plants grow.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
In this lesson the students will create mixtures and note the physical properties of each of the ingredients within.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
In this lesson the students will explore the outdoor classroom looking for examples of natural resources used to make useful products with a special emphasis on how rocks and soil (clay) are used.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
In 4th grade, students will compare and contrast a variety of mixtures including solutions that they can make indoors. In 5th grade students will create mixtures and note the physical properties of each of the ingredients within.

STUDENT ACTIVITY - 4th - TXThis is a distance-learning lesson students can complete at home. The student will compare and contrast a variety of mixtures, including solutions, that they can make outdoors. 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.
Material Type: Activity/Lab
In this lesson the students will observe and record properties of rocks based on properties such as size, weight, shape, color or texture.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
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.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
In this lesson, students explore magnets in the outdoor learning space.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
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.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
Students will use knowledge of the sun's characteristics to find evidence in the outdoor classroom that support various scientific claims.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
Students will use their knowledge of life cycles to find evidence of various plant life cycles and compare to that of frogs, beetles, butterflies.
Material Type: Lesson Plan
Students will use knowledge of ecosystems and living and non-living things to classify objects they find outdoors and create simple food chains.
