In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

This is an activity in which learners explore the effects of gravity, motion and momentum while creating art.

In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.

In this engineering activity, learners explore simple machines and then build cardboard automata using cams.

In this activity, learners construct drawing machines using a cup, some markers, and a battery pack. The markers act as "legs" for the machine, making a drawing that records as it moves.

In this activity, learners make mobiles to explore the concepts of balance, counterbalance, weight, and counterweight.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity), learners will study the adaptations different fish species have developed to survive in their habitats.

In this activity, learners investigate color vision as well as plan and conduct their own experiments.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.

In this activity, learners construct bug models that "jitter" all over the table with just a battery, motor, and counterweight.

In this activity, learners build a carousel toy that spins when pushed down.

This outdoor activity/field trip requires a place where minnows swim, such as a local pond or brook.

In this design challenge activity, learners add headphones to a previously built instrument (see "Build a Band" activity) to make it easier to hear.

In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Music and Sound) is a full inquiry investigation into sound frequency.

In this activity, learners make critters out of recyclables and apply the rules of mathematics to solve genetics problems.

In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

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