A Matter of Splatter
Source Institutions
In this math-based activity, learners will experiment to find how height and angle affect spatter and then use this knowledge to solve a crime.

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

Floating and Falling Flows
Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.

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

Join the Dinosaur Age
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

Positive Planning Adds Up
Source Institutions
In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

Our Beautiful World
Source Institutions
In this Bob the Builder(TM)-themed activity, learners go on a nature walk outside and describe what they observe using their senses.

Density Rainbow and the Great Viscosity Race
Learners conduct two activities to investigate two properties of liquids: density and viscosity. In a clear container, learners stack 7 different liquids which will layer according to their density.

Tempest in a Teacup
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

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

Tree-mendous Plots
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners record and graph plant growth and interpret data. Learners plant seeds, and once the seeds sprout, record the change in height of the plants for several days.

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

Excavating and Mapping Under Water
Source Institutions
In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

Space Stations: Sponge Spool Spine
Source Institutions
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).

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

Cloud Fun
Source Institutions
Learners complete a series of hands-on and investigative activities to explore cumulus clouds.

Photosynthetic Pictures Are Worth More Than a Thousand Words
Source Institutions
This activity provides an opportunity for learners to observe and examine how carbon dioxide, water, and light produce glucose/starch through a process called photosynthesis.

Evolutionstechnik or Selection and Variation in the Egyptian Origami Bird (Avis papyrus)
Source Institutions
In order to examine the random nature of mutations and natural selection, learners "breed" clutches of Egyptian Origami Birds (Avis papyrus) using random number generators (dice and coins) to mutate s
