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 activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity, learners use ABS pipe and an air leaf blower to make a strong shooting machine.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this activity (page 23 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to determine how the size and mass of a projectile affects the area and the volume of an impact crater.

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

In this activity, learners shrink the scale of the vast solar system to the size of their neighborhood.

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

In this activity, learners estimate how much water they think can be found in various locations on the Earth in all its states (solid, liquid, and gas) to discover the different water ratios in the Ea

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs) is a full inquiry investigation into decomposition.

In this activity, learners investigate various appliances and electronics, discovering how much energy each uses and how much carbon dioxide (CO2) is released to produce that energy.

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

In this activity, learners are introduced to challenges of maintaining temperatures while living in space.
