In this activity, learners thread gumdrops together to make a model of a polymer.

In this demonstration, adult learners create a lava lamp using beer and nuts! Use this pub-themed activity to demonstrate the effects of buoyancy and bubbles.

In this physics demonstration, learners are challenged to insert a straw the furthest into a potato.

In this hands-on activity, learners make the world's simplest Cartesian diver, using only a plastic bottle, some water, and a condiment packet.

In this activity, learners use three types of cheesy snacks--cheese balls, cheese puffs, and Cheetos--to learn about polymers.

In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a lemon slice appears to magically levitate within a pint glass.

In this activity, learners explore how nanotechnology is being used to create new types of protective fabrics.

This simple and engaging astronomy activity explains nuclear fusion and how radiation is generated by stars, using marshmallows as a model.

In this activity, learners create a necklace of wheat germ DNA. Learners add alcohol to wheat germ so that the DNA clumps together.

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

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.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

In this activity, learners discover the principles of edible glass by making a supersaturated sugar solution.

The objective of this inquiry-based lesson is for learners to gain an understanding of how increasing ocean acidity can affect the calcification of marine organisms.
