In this activity, learners stain fabrics--on purpose!

In this engineering design challenge, learners animate a facial expression and make a machine (zoetrope) that plays the animation back.

In this activity, learners create a traditional Mexican noisemaker (a matraca) using cardboard, craft sticks, and a wooden dowel.

In this activity, learners construct a model of DNA to better understand the structure of DNA and protein synthesis.

In this activity (posted on April 18, 2011), learners follow the steps to construct a zoetrope, a device that produces an illusion of action from a rapid succession of static pictures, using a 16" bik

In this outdoor activity, learners work in pairs using their senses—especially touch—to learn more about individual trees.

In this activity (posted on March 27, 2011), learners follow the steps to construct a mini zoetrope, a device that produces an illusion of action from a rapid succession of static pictures.

In this two-part activity, learners investigate buoyancy, density and surface area as well as biodiversity and the relationship between the structure and function of organisms.

In this activity, learners investigate color vision as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity, learners act as epidemiologists by mapping the prevalence of HIV/AIDS worldwide.

Make a one-string "guitar" by stringing a cup with some fishing line. You amplify the plucking of the string by placing a piezo contact microphone and mini battery powered amplifier inside the cup.

Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT) is a cloning method that involves transferring a nucleus from a somatic cell of the individual to be cloned to an enucleated egg.

In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this open-ended multicultural lab activity, learners investigate the effectiveness of herbal remedies.
