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

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

The major goal of this math lesson is to have learners collect data from a variety of experiments, determine what models best fits their data, and explain why their models are best.

In this physical sciences activity, learners use science to solve a "crime." Learners collect trace evidence (glitter) and explore its characteristics, such as color, size, shape, and light reflection

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

This laboratory activity helps learners understand the concept of biological succession by simulating the process in a microenvironment with various protozoans.

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 (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).
