In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this activity, young learners use different-sized paper 'caterpillars' and various household items to predict and measure their height.

In this activity learners will measure and manipulate flubber using different tools. Learners will explore volume and make observations about texture and shapes.

In this activity, learners will explore how maps can provide information about a place and help us find our way from one location to another.

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

In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.

This simple activity uses paper and scissors to convey two key concepts to learners: the nanoscale is very small and working on the nanoscale requires special tools.

In this activity, learners will estimate the sizes of balls to learn how to estimate the size of hail. Learners will compare their estimates to the estimates of their peers and the real measurements.

In this activity, learners mimic remote sensing. Learners use a stick to measure the distance to a "planet surface" they cannot see, and create their own map of the landscape.

In this experiment, learners use JOY liquid detergent and glycerin to make the largest bubble they can that lasts 15 seconds.

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

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

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

In this activity, learners make their own Sun tracker to explore how ancient civilizations around the world studied the Sun.

Learners smell balloons filled with different scents to guess what's inside. From this, they infer the presence and motion of scented molecules.
