In this nutrition activity, learners explore food labels and consider the nutritional value of foods. Learners also explore units of measurement commonly used on food labels.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.

Choose a recipe to double (or triple, quadruple, or halve). Show everyone the recipe and engage them in figuring out: How much will we need to increase the recipe to feed everyone?

In this demonstration, cook a cake using the heat produced when the cake batter conducts an electric current.

Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

In this craft activity, learners will recognize, name, and compare the fractions 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 by constructing a penguin out of portions of paper circles.

In this activity, learners build edible models of Jupiter and Earth to compare their sizes and illustrate the planets' internal layers.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

Learners carefully pour vegetable oil, water, and corn syrup in any order into a cup and discover that regardless of the order they are poured, the liquids arrange themselves in layers the same way.

Learners design their own experiment to determine which M&M color dissolves the fastest in water.

In this simulation, learners use M&M™ candy to explore radioactive isotope decay.

This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Surface Area Activity) about surface area to volume ratio.

In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.
