In this optics activity, learners explore how many objects they can see in a set of mirrors (hinged like a book) at various angles.

Learners examine the properties of light by experimenting with an LED-flashlight and polarizing filters. When two polarizers are used, they block all light when they are placed at right angles.

Learners shine the light of a laser pointer through sheets of fabric that all have a different number of threads per inch.

In this activity on page 13 of the PDF, learners use a laser pointer (with known wavelength of light) to measure the thickness of a human hair.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

In this activity, learners model ancient lunar impacts using water balloons.
