Make a Comet on a Stick
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners craft their own model of a comet on a stick to make it fly around the room.

The Model Neuron
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a model of a neuron by using colored clay or play dough. Learners use diagrams to build the model and then label the parts on a piece of paper.

Indicator Paper
Source Institutions
Use grape juice, baking soda, water and vinegar to make acid and base indicator paper! This activity contains a recipe and instructions for the indicator paper.

Biomimicry Mash-Up
Source Institutions
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.

Squeezing Pictures Into Codes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how computers represent pictures using pixels.
Pattern Families
Source Institutions
In this math activity, learners sort patterns into similar "families" or groups that have the same pattern, but different symbols.

Moon's Long History: Impact Paintings
Source Institutions
In this activity, pairs of learners model how scientists use craters to determine the ages of lunar surfaces. One partner keeps time while the other creates a painting for the other to interpret.

Constellation Scope
Source Institutions
In this activity, young learners explore the basic shapes of constellations by making their own scope out of a cardboard tube and paper with pinpricks.

Rainforest Plant or Animal?
Source Institutions
In this craft activity, learners will compare and contrast the major functions of plants and animals.

What is Nanotechnology?
Source Institutions
In this activity related to nanotechnology, learners observe some of the effects that result from creating a thin layer of material several nanometers thick.

Party Hat Symmetry
Source Institutions
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.

What Can You Make of It?
Source Institutions
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

Make Ziff's Carpenter's Square
Source Institutions
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.
