In this two-part activity about luminescence, learners explore the chemistry that happens inside glow sticks and other light producing reactions.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this activity, learners test the Law of Reflection based on experimental evidence. Learners produce raw data and explanations based on their data: pencil tracings of incident and reflection rays.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners explore how we see color.

In this activity, learners explore how mirrors reflect light and change the way we see things.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.

In this activity (1st activity on the page), learners explore their sense of taste and the structure of the tongue by taste-testing various foods.

In this activity, learners explore conservation of energy by experimenting with a solar cell light device.

In this activity about bones (page 12 of PDF), learners investigate and compare the weight-bearing capacity of solid and hollow cylinders.

In this activity related to microbes, learners use water drops and hand lenses to begin the exploration of magnification. This activity also introduces learners to the microscope.

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.

In this hands-on activity, learners will become familiar with the special adaptations of rainforest plants and discover the conditions needed for tropical trees to survive along with what can impinge
