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

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners count and measure kidney beans to explore natural selection and variation. Learners measure the length of 50-100 beans.

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

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

In this activity, learners use their senses to collect information about a fruit and record their findings in a Science Journal.

In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

In this activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Temperate Rain Forest Activity), learners will identify a group of deciduous trees to study.

In this activity, learners take measurements and create charts to learn about the size of dinosaurs and their relative scale to humans.

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity, learners explore dinosaur skeletons and anatomy. Learners make observations about a T. rex skeleton diagram and then measure the skeleton length and width.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick) is a full inquiry investigation into transfer of motion.

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

In this activity, learners explore how and why rainbows form by creating rainbows in a variety of ways using simple materials. Learners create rainbows indoors and outdoors.

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

In this activity, learners calculate the width (horizontal diameter) of the blind spot on their retina. Learners make a blind spot tester using a piece of notebook paper.

In this quick activity, learners take a balance challenge to measure their average balance time. As they collect data, they investigate how practice and repetition improve their balance time.

In this activity, learners explore a scale by comparing objects, which look similar but have different weights. Learners predict and then measure the weights of various objects using a scale.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

Learners use a variety of beans to represent a variety of species, and scatter these beans over a large piece of paper representing the environment.
