In this activity, learners use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.

In this archaeology meets art activity, learners make a mosaic and consider the ways in which art communicates.

In this science/art activity, learners create an insignia or emblem for a planet exploration mission.

This activity is about the mural making process done about 9,000 years ago in Catalhoyuk, Turkey.

Rocks are made of minerals, and minerals often have crystal shapes. In this fun activity about geometry in nature, learners create their own crystal shapes out of paper.

In this activity, participants will learn about how gigantic clouds of gas and dust in space, called nebulas, are formed. They'll create their own colorful model nebula using paint and a spinner.

In this activity, learners make scale models of the Sun and Earth out of paper mache.

In this activity (page 95 of the PDF), learners create Escher Staircase models similar to those that were used by Neurolab's Spatial Orientation Team to investigate the processing of information about

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

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 will build a model of a nebula using cotton balls and colored water. Astronomers photograph nebulas and add colors to provide information about the nebula's composition.

In this design challenge activity, learners explore the concept of biomimicry by using a natural organism's special features to design a new human object.

In this activity, learners design and build a NASA rover using raw pasta and candy with a limited imaginary budget.

Exponga estos pósteres en el salón o déjelos donde los chicos los puedan explorar. Los chicos buscan las respuestas en línea, en libros de consulta, y en calendarios y almanaques.

In this activity, learners will see how UV light affects colors over time by making their own sunprint on construction paper.

In this design challenge, learners will engineer a structure and see if it can survive an earthquake they create.

In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the carbon cycle using movement and props to aid in comprehension.

In ancient Chaco Canyon, the people used a "sun dagger" petroglyph to mark the passing of seasons.

In this activity, learners try to figure out who has their matching rock type by reading a description of their rock (no talking!).
