Did you know that some breakfast cereals are fortified with ferric phosphate, while others contain tiny pieces of reduced iron?

Learners investigate an iron-fortified cereal by stirring it with a strong magnet. They discover that metallic iron is present in some cereals.

In this chemistry investigation, learners combine common cooking substances (flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, pepper, oil, water, food coloring) to explore mixtures.

In this hands-on activity, learners explore static electricity through the use of common household products. They also explore the connection between static electricity and cold weather.

In this activity, learners explore static electricity and electrical charges while experimenting with an inflated balloon, unflavored gelatin powder, and a wool sweater.

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

In this genetics activity, learners discover how to extract DNA from green split peas.

In this activity, learners discover what happens when they crush wintergreen-flavored candies in a very dark room.

In this activity, learners use colored candy to represent subatomic particles and make a model of an atom (Bohr model).

In this quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity), learners will observe how dry breakfast cereal appears to dance when it gets close to a balloon charged with static

In this activity, Frankenstein's lab is running out of electricity! Learners use fruit to help Igor find a temporary source of energy to turn on a light.

This activity (on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Body Electricity Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into conductivity.
