In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this activity, learners use an astrolabe to measure the altitude of objects. Learners will first practice taking measurements by measuring the altitude of trees and buildings.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners investigate how much sugar is in a soda. Learners use sugar cubes to measure and calculate the amount of sugar in a bottle of soda.

In this activity, learners work in pairs to measure each other's ankles with lengths of string.

In this activity, learners measure the diameter of their water balloons, model an impact, measure the diameter of the “crater” area, and determine the ratio of impactor to crater.

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

This activity (on pages 16-23) lets learners measure each other's vital signs—the signs that help doctors understand what's going on in a patient body.

In this activity, learners measure the amount of carbon dioxide in a carbonated drink.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers use scales and measures when designing a manufacturing process to ensure that final products are uniform in weight or count.

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will measure the rate at which water streams out of a leaky cup.

In this activity, Frankenstein's lab is running out of electricity! Learners use fruit to help Igor find a temporary source of energy to turn on a light.

The demonstration/experiment provides quick proof that air has mass.

Historically, sea floor mapping (bathymetry) was done by soundings.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

In this experience, learners use the internet to research physical details about Chihuly's Fireworks of Glass "Tower" and "Ceiling" and consider the decisions Chihuly had to make as he was planning th

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 simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.
