In this activity, learners play a trick on their own brain to see if the brain can learn to ignore distracting input. Colors and words are used to play the visual trick, known as a Stroop Test.

In this game, learners cutout a model black hole "cone" and attempt to roll around a marble or other small spherical object without touching the event horizon.

In this Cyberchase activity, learners make carpenter's squares and use them to measure square corners. Learners cut out the carpenter's square template and attach it to tagboard.

In this hands-on activity, learners make New Year's Eve party hats out of wrapping paper. Learners use symmetry and measurement to cut out shapes they need to assemble the hats.

In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF), learners explore alternative uses of a simple paper cup, dubbed a "mystery item." Learners act as detectives and explore the properties and functions of th

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can explore the process of extrusion used to produce pipes and wires in industry.

In this design challenge, learners will create wind-powered contraptions to transport a load, such as a cupcake or another small object, and test to see if they work.

In this up-cycling activity, learners recycle plastic bags and repurpose them into useful wallets.

In this activity, learners use their imaginations and picture a scene in their heads.

In this activity, learners investigate the reflective properties of light and mirrors as they make a kaleidoscope.

In this hands-on activity, learners simulate the crashing and smashing of a meteor impact using household cooking supplies.

Can you read the sentence "I C U"? Not really - but if you say each letter aloud, you'll say the simple sentence, "I see you." What if you change the "C" into a picture of an eye?

In this activity, you'll use a straw, a water bottle and a paper tube to make an instrument that's very much like a saxophone.

With three cans and some tape, make a drum that you bonk down on any surface to produce a variety of sounds. This activity also teaches you about pitch, vibration, and frequency.

In this activity, learners build a paper model of the spacecraft and photometer (telescope) used during NASA's Kepler Mission.
