Whale Fall Cycle
Program Ari to represent stages of a whale fall and the ecosystem that forms on the ocean floor. Students use color codes and sequencing to create and refine scientific models.
Coral Inhabitants
Become a marine scientist! Build an interactive coral reef to explore how ocean animals feed and shelter. Program Ari to mimic an ocean creature’s journey, track coral visits, and analyze your data to compare results.
Ocean Energy Food Chain
Bring the energy of ecosystems to life by programming Ari to simulate the flow of energy through a vibrant ocean food chain, from the sun to producers, consumers and decomposers. Use sequencing language to craft and present your model to your others!

Ari’s Mars Landing
Students set off on a guided journey using the Ari Compass App to spot the cardinal and intermediate directions and follow a path around the map. Along the way, they’ll tackle a design challenge based on Ari’s location—using their compass skills and
Building Bridges
Using the Compass App, students explore an area and decide where new bridges should go for efficient travel, applying compass and map-reading skills to determine the smartest routes and solve real-world challenges.
Ari’s Afternoon Adventure
Students kick off a mapping adventure with Ari’s Compass, figuring out where they are and charting paths across the map. As they explore, they’ll hunt for parallel and perpendicular lines and discover how these shapes show up all around us.
Storm Tracking
Students use the Ari Compass App and navigation skills to read maps and track weather across regions. They follow storm movement, report what they find, and communicate clear updates using compass directions.
Ari’s Solar System Adventure
Students use the Ari Compass App to learn how a compass works and how Earth’s magnetic field guides it. Then they explore magnetic fields across the solar system to see how a compass would behave on other planets.
Treasure Mapping
Students use the Ari Compass App to learn basic compass navigation by exploring a map and using a compass rose. Then they apply these skills in real life as they create maps and hide or find items around their space.
