In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners create a collage by using vinegar to transfer color pictures from a newspaper onto a piece of white paper.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners discover how science and Halloween are fun companions as they make paper bleed.

In this activity, learners "dance" (move back and forth at varying speeds) by reading a graph. This is a kinesthetic way to help learners interpret and understand how motion is graphed.

In this activity on page 9 of the PDF, learners make their own paint using chalk as a pigment and glue and water as binders. This activity introduces learners to special mixtures called suspensions.

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

In this engineering design challenge, learners animate a facial expression and make a machine (zoetrope) that plays the animation back.

In this Cyberchase activity, use grid coordinates to share secret pictures with a friend. Color squares of a grid to make a picture (like a smiley face) that you keep hidden from the other person.

In this optics activity, learners create flip books by drawing an image like an eye opening and closing on 24 small pages of paper.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing an instrument toy that buzzes when you swing it.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing their very own instruments using PVC pipes, soda bottles, and a straw.
