In this math activity related to light, learners assemble a photometer and use it to estimate the power output of the Sun.

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

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

In this sunny day experiment, learners measure and compare how quickly light and dark colored materials absorb heat.

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.

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).
