In this "Sid the Science Kid" activity from Episode 109: The Perfect Pancake, learners make applesauce to explore irreversible change.

In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

Learners use shop tools and various materials to construct a magnetic spinner and a compass.

In this technology activity, learners light up the room with electrifying play dough creations. Learners use conductive and insulating homemade play dough to build simple circuits.

In this activity, learners explore trebuchet design. Teams of learners construct trebuchets from everyday materials.

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.

In this hands-on experiment, kids use chemistry to explore whether acids or bases are better at restoring a penny’s shine.

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

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

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

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

In this activity, learners discover that some things only stand up while they are spinning.

In this activity, learners explore how musical instruments are engineered.

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

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.

In this hands-on activity, learners determine the types of chemical reactions achieved when combining different household products.

In this delicious activity, learners get to make, taste-test and compare their own "brands" of homemade strawberry ice cream.

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

In this hands-on science experiment, students combine their understanding of the different states of matter and the characteristics of various chemical reactions.

In this archaeology activity, learners make observations and conduct an experiment to demonstrate the effect saltwater has on artifacts.
