In this activity/demo, learners are introduced to the connection between medieval stained glass artisans and nanotechnology.

In this activity, learners will use string and salt to lift an ice cube out of a glass of water. Salt depresses the freezing point of water, allowing it to melt around the string and refreeze.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

In this activity (on pages 4-5), learners make fake snow by adding water to the super-absorbant chemical from diapers, sodium polyacrylate.

In this activity, educators can demonstrate how the nanoscale arrangement of atoms dramatically impacts a material’s macroscale behavior.

In this activity, learners investigate how inkjet printers produce tiny, precise drops of ink.

In this activity, learners discover that the way a material behaves on the macroscale is affected by its structure on the nanoscale.
