In this activity about light and perception, learners create pictures in thin air.

In this activity, learners explore chemiluminescence and fluorescence. Learners examine 3 different solutions in regular light, in the dark with added bleach solution, and under a black light.

In this optics activity, learners examine how a transparent material such as glass or water can actually reflect light better than any mirror.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.

This activity requires a Pico Cricket (tiny computer). Learners work on designing and building a sound sensor out of household materials, like plastic wrap and cardboard.

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

In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

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

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.
