This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

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

In this combination chemistry and physics activity, learners explore water absorption in dried beans or peas and learn how this affects their physical properties.

In this activity, learners investigate the formation of craters. Learners will examine how the size, angle and speed of a meteorite's impact affects the properties of craters.

In this activity about ramps, learners explore and measure the rate at which spherical objects roll down a ramp.

Learners investigate signs of a chemical reaction when they mix vinegar and baking soda. In addition to a gas being produced, learners also notice the temperature decreases.

In this activity, learners build a simple pinhole viewer. They use this apparatus to project images from a variety of light sources, including a candle, the Sun, and the Moon.

In this investigation, learners plant seeds in a 2-liter bottle filled with soil that is connected to a water source below. Over the next few weeks, learners observe how the plants grow.

In this physics activity (page 12 of the PDF), learners explore potential and kinetic energy by rolling different sized marbles down an inclined plane.

In this physics related activity which requires adult supervision, learners make their own powerful water rocket and, with it, explore Newton's Third Law of Motion.

Learners make kimchee or sauerkraut, which is really just fermented cabbage, in a 2-liter plastic bottle.

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

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