In this activity, learners explore how infrared technology is used by engineers to create equipment and systems for a variety of industries.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.

In this activity, learners investigate the different salinity levels of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forensics) is a full inquiry investigation into how hairs from a crime scene are matched to suspects.

Learners are challenged to create solutions that conduct electricity and make a buzzer buzz (or an LED light up).

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Double Dutch) is a full inquiry investigation into whether hearing or seeing has a bigger effect on jump rope performance.

In this astrobiology activity (on page 11 of the PDF), learners consider what organisms need in order to live (water, nutrients, and energy).
