In this activity learners will be creating art using a traditional Japanese art style.

In this art meets science activity, learners pack silver, ball-shaped ornaments in a single layer in a box to create an array of spherical reflectors.

This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Butterfly Wings Activity) that illustrates how nanoscale structures, so small they're practically invisible, can produce visible/colorful effects.

In this game, learners create flash cards with an image on one side (of an animal, for example) and the sound that animal makes on the other.

In this activity, learners create an origami model of DNA, demonstrating its double helix structure.

In this activity (on page 8), learners model how marble statues and buildings are affected by acid rain.

In this activity, learners overlap the three primary colors to see how all other colors are made.

In this craft-based activity, learners make DNA sequence bracelets that carry the code of an organism such as a human, trout, chimpanzee or butterfly.

In this optics activity, learners create flip books by drawing an image like an eye opening and closing on 24 small pages of paper.

Learners construct a bracelet containing two strands of beads, which represents a double strand of DNA that codes for a gene. They match beads to the bases in a section of a chimp's DNA code.

Coins are everyday objects which tell a lot about the people who use them.

String Thing is an interactive online game in which learners change a virtual string's tension, length, and gauge to create different musical pitches.

In this activity, learners create three-dimensional shapes by making some origami models of simple boxes and containers.

In this activity, learners explore the gait of horses by constructing flipbooks with British photographer Eadweard Muybridge's famous photographs.

In this activity, learners use transparent tape and polarizing material to create and project beautifully colored patterns reminiscent of abstract or geometric stained glass windows--no glass required

In this activity, learners build a musical drum using a cardboard tube, plastic wrap, and beads.

In this activity, learners will explore the ways natural materials can produce sounds. Appropriate for any age, learners can make individual music or create a symphony with others.

In this activity, learners will create their own coral polyps - the basis for a coral reef.

Learners write a message in Braille using beans to form the patterns of dots. Learners glue beans in place, and then challenge another learner to read the message.

In this activity, learners will construct an air cannon as a model for the human ear.
