Bury Me Not!
Source Institutions
This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs) is a full inquiry investigation into decomposition.

Mixing and Unmixing in the Kitchen
Source Institutions
In this chemistry investigation, learners combine common cooking substances (flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, pepper, oil, water, food coloring) to explore mixtures.

Testing for Life's Molecules
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners conduct tests for proteins, glucose, and starch.

Clippy Island: An Investigation into Natural Selection
Source Institutions
In this activity, leaners will observe the process of natural selection on a population of birds called 'Springbeaks' over four seasons of breeding on an isolated environment called 'Clippy Island.' L

Biotech in a Bag
Source Institutions
In a series of three experiments, learners explore the basics of biotechnology using self-locking plastic baggies. Each experiment demonstrates a phenomenon or principle of biotechnology.

Apples with Appeal
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate why apples turn brown. Learners discover that lemon juice interferes with the reaction that causes the browning.

Light Combinations
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 17 of the pdf), learners experiment with magnets, exploring the concept of diamagnetic materials by seeing how a grape reacts to a magnetic field.

Busted by Biology
Source Institutions
In this two-part activity, learners will extract their own DNA from their cheek cells and learn how DNA is analyzed and used to solve crimes.

Static Shock!
Source Institutions
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.

Repulsive Grape: Diamagnetism
Source Institutions
Do grapes, yes the grapes from the grocery store, move in the presence of a very strong magnet?

Candy Chromatography
Source Institutions
Learners analyze candy-coated sweets using chromatography. Learners use this method to separate the various dyes used to make colored candy.

Egg-stra Strength
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners will investigate the strength of egg shells.

Push Me a Grape
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners experiment with the attractive and repulsive power of magnets.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Robot
Source Institutions
This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Rice Handle
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, learners attempt to lift a jar full of rice using only a spoon.

Owl Pellets
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 7 of the PDF), learners will investigate the contents of owl pellets. Learners will discover how owls digest their food as well as the kind of animals they eat.
Growing Rock Candy
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make their own rock candy. Crystals will grow from a piece of string hanging in a cup of sugar water. The edible crystals may take up to a week to form.

Take an Egg for a Spin
Source Institutions
This is an activity about friction as well as kinetic and potential energy.

Rock Candy
Source Institutions
In this yummy chemistry activity which requires adult supervision, learners use sugar and water to explore how crystals form.

Cabbage Patch Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity, learners will learn how to make their own pH indicator using cabbage leaves, and then test common household items with their homemade indicator.
