Educator Amy O'Donnell from the American Museum of Natural History guides learners to create a diorama of a coral reef.

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

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites) is a full inquiry investigation into how a kite’s shape affects its performance.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaurs and fossils by creating a diorama.

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 activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, learners explore the size and scale of dinosaurs. Learners listen to "Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs" by Byron Barton to understand some background information about dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners explore how casts of fossilized bones are created and used to learn about dinosaurs. Learners make observations, draw diagrams and share their findings.

In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur fossils by making cast models of a T. rex. First, learners read about and research how dinosaur fossils form.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore model planets (that they or an educator will create), using methods NASA scientists use to explore our Solar System.

In this activity, learners explore how the process of folding has impacts on engineering and is evident in nature.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In this activity, a group of learners work collaboratively to design and construct a paper model showing the evolution of an environment through multiple stages, from prehistory through the modern cit
