In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

In this activity, learners build their your own seismograph with household materials to document shaking.

In this health and fitness activity, learners focus on the importance of daily physical activity, specifically walking.

Learners add calcium chloride to a baking soda solution and observe an increase in temperature along with the production of a gas and a white precipitate. These are all signs of a chemical reaction.

In this activity, learners use a compact disc to make a spectrometer, an instrument used to measure properties of light.

In this activity, learners use a straight line to learn about circles. Learners measure and record the diameter and circumference of different sized cylindrical objects on a chart.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a machine out of cardboard that runs smoothly and dependably. Learners must be precise to make sure their component works properly.

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 activity, learners make different shapes that hold exactly one mole of gas (air).

In this activity on page 15 of the PDF, learners measure the amount of bubbles that they make using a detergent.

In this outdoor activity, learners discover how the environment around a building affects the growth of plants.

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

Learners mix vinegar and baking soda to produce a gas. With the addition of a bit of liquid soap, the gas becomes trapped in measurable bubbles.

In this indoor or outdoor water activity, learners pour water from small cups to large cups and containers. In doing so, they discover water takes the shape of its container.

In this chemistry activity, learners use thin layer chromatography to determine the molecular composition of different markers.

Learners build a filter from old soda bottles and dirt. They create polluted water, and pour it through their filter to clean it.
