Gumdrop Chains and Shrinky Necklaces
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners thread gumdrops together to make a model of a polymer.

Gelatin Prism
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make prisms from gelatin. Learners then shine light through the prisms and discover what happens. This activity introduces learners to the idea of refraction.

One In The Hand
Source Institutions
In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to break a raw egg just by squeezing it. Learners will be shocked by their inability to complete the deceivingly simple challenge.

Wheat Evolution: Sedimentation Testing
Source Institutions
In this activity (Page 30 of PDF), learners investigate the evolution of wheat by conducting sedimentation tests on different flours.

Wheat Evolution: Dough Rising and Baking
Source Institutions
In this activity (Page 25 of PDF), learners investigate the evolution of wheat by creating dough from different flours, observing the samples of dough as they rise, and then baking the dough.

Molecular Menagerie
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use molecular model kits to construct familiar molecules like lactose, caffeine, and Aspirin.

Gummy Shapes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.
