Statistics: Whirlybirds
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners measure, predict and determine the frequency of an event as it relates to how close Whirlybirds land to a target.

Map That Habitat
Source Institutions
Historically, sea floor mapping (bathymetry) was done by soundings.
Light on Other Planets
Source Institutions
In this math-based activity, learners model the intensity of light at various distances from a light source, and understand how astronomers measure the amount of sunlight that hits our planet and othe

Base Station Walk-Back
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

What Causes Pressure?
Source Institutions
In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.

Mass, Area, Volume
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 18 of PDF), learners will measure the volume of impact craters created by projectiles of different masses.

Shadow Play
Source Institutions
In this three part activity, learners explore and experiment with shadows to learn about the Sun's relative motion in the sky.

Shaking It!
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

Out of Sight: Remote Vehicle Activity
Source Institutions
In this robotics activity, learners drive a remote-controlled car through a course to learn the challenges faced while trying to operate a planetary rover.

Bean Bugs
Source Institutions
In this outdoor biology and math activity, learners estimate the size of a population of organisms too numerous to count.

Computation and Estimation: Roll Out The Barrel
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners apply mathematical modeling to solve a real-world storage problem, in which a manufacturing company is given two options for storing oil barrels.

Exploring at the Nanoscale
Source Institutions
This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

The Parachuting Egg
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work in groups to design a parachute out of household items that keeps an egg secure when dropped from a certain height.

Kid Moon: Splat!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners model ancient lunar impacts using water balloons.

Trail Impact Study
Source Institutions
In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.
