Discover the seasons together with the ancient Greek philosopher Plato. Did you know it is summer on Atlantis when it is winter in Australia?

In this feature, adapted from Interactive NOVA: "Earth," students explore the relationship between oxygen concentration and the well-being of various organisms by simulating a change in oxygen levels and observing what happens.

In this interactive activity from ChemThink, students will take a closer look at atomic structure, properties, and behaviors. Includes background reading material and discussion questions. [This resource is available on PBS Learning Media. Free registration is required.]

This video segment adapted from A Science Odyssey takes a look at the scale of the atom and the tremendous amount of space between the electrons and the nucleus. If all this empty space exists in matter, how can any substance be solid?

Novel representations and diverse perspectives can reveal new insights into complex systems, and can support rich understandings of the world. In this activity, students will identify and analyze the choices artists and scientists make when creating representations of living or non-living natural objects. This process will help students recognize the potential and place for their own articulation of how the world works. After drawing from nature, students will reflect on the process of representing information, then compare their drawings with that of a 16th-century artist. Students will consider what is included and what is excluded, and hypothesize about larger contexts and systems.

After your group explores the Arcadia Earth app section titled Keep the Great Lakes GREAT! and are introduced to challenges the amazing Great Lakes face, learners investigate their own use of a precious resource, water. The lesson culminates with learners developing strategies to conserve water and identifying how they can play a part in keeping our Great Lakes Great!

Estimated time required: 1 class period.

Aurelia will introduce students to biological adaptation using fish as the model organism. Organisms have adaptations that help them survive in their environment, including fish. Fish live in a variety of habitats thus leading to their diversity in body form and shape. To better understand how adaptations are tailored for various environments, students will explore the Pelagic enviroment. Pelagic fish live in the pelagic zone of ocean or lake waters – being neither close to the bottom nor near the shore.

Estimated time required: 1-2 class periods.

Aurelia will introduce students to biological adaptation using fish as the model organism. Organisms have adaptations that help them survive in their environment, including fish. Fish live in a variety of habitats thus leading to their diversity in body form and shape. To better understand how adaptations are tailored for various environments, students will explore the freshwater enviroment. Freshwater fish are those that spend some or all of their lives in fresh water, such as rivers and lakes, with a salinity of less than 1.05%.
