In this art-related activity, learners make a coin rubbing—a process similar to what archeologists may do with ancient artifacts. This activity can be used in connection with a history or art lesson.

This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Butterfly Wings Activity) that illustrates how nanoscale structures, so small they're practically invisible, can produce visible/colorful effects.

In this activity, learners overlap the three primary colors to see how all other colors are made.

In this art/science/math activity, young learners are introduced to the concept of symmetry in nature.

In this activity, learners create three-dimensional shapes by making some origami models of simple boxes and containers.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF) has learners create models of butterfly wings.

In this activity, learners develop spatial reasoning skills as they blow bubbles and observe what happens when the bubbles connect.

In this activity, learners investigate balance and symmetry by designing a symmetrical butterfly, using a paper cutout.

Learners build pan pipes out of drinking straws by cutting them to different lengths. Then, learners make music by blowing across the straws and playing some well-known songs.

In this activity, learners build inexpensive kaleidoscopes using transparency paper and foil (instead of mirrors).

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

Learners use M&Ms® (or any other multi-color, equally-sized small candy or pieces) to create a pie graph that expresses the composition of air.

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).
