In this math lesson, learners explore probability.

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.

In this story time program, young learners listen to the Dr.

Learners drop two different masses of play dough and observe how long it takes them to hit the ground.

These math posters have questions written on them, such as: How many colors can you name in a minute? or How many seconds can you balance on one foot?

Learners observe projectile motion by launching wooden balls off of a table top. They set up a rubber-band launcher so that each ball experiences a consistent amount of force.

Learners experiment with water gel crystals, or sodium polyacrylate crystals, which absorb hundreds of times their weight in water. When in pure water, the water gel crystals cannot be seen.

Learners build a pendulum from a yo-yo, and then design their own experiment to determine what affects the pendulum's period of swing.

In this activity, learners rotate through several learning and play stations to explore dinosaurs and paleontologists.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

In this activity, learners will use Google Sky to observe features of the night sky and share their observations.
