In this activity, learners explore how engineers design devices that can detect the presence of pollutants in the air.

"Molecules in Motion" explores how materials behave and change in a vacuum.

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.

In this collection of demonstrations, learners explore Newton's Laws of Motion.

In this activity, learners build mini-basketball courts and explore the laws of physics. Learners discover that everything you throw or shoot on earth travels in a parabola.

In this activity, learners are introduced to robotic submarines called gliders. Learners make “gliders” from plastic syringes and compare these to Cartesian bottles and plastic bubbles.

In this activity, learners create a "Jam Jar Jet" based on Francois Reynst's discovery of a pulsejet engine, which uses one opening for both air intake and exhaust.

In this outdoor activity, learners make their own organic-rich soil. Depending on where this activity is done, learners will probably discover that their local soil is low in organic matter.
