In this activity, learners will take a step back and learn the history of the land they live on, and the people who used to live on it.

In this activity, learners construct speedy vehicles made out of paper plates and powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this math lesson, learners construct box-and-whisker plots to analyze and compare data sets. Learners investigate whether or not long-legged people run faster than short-legged people.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

In this activity, learners make their own pinhole viewer in order to measure the size of the sun.

In this activity, learners use the Sun's energy to cook marshmallows. Learners construct the solar oven out of simple everyday materials.

In this activity, learners build a kite out of paper, change it, and try to make it fly even better. With their new knowledge of kite making, students can then go on to create their own kite designs.

Working in teams of four, learners build tetrahedral kites following specific instructions and using specific materials.

In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

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

In this activity, learners make water rockets to explore Newton's Third Law of Motion. Learners make the rockets out of plastic bottles and use a bicycle pump to pump them with air.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

In this activity, learners make acid/base indicator paper, place the indicator paper on an anthill, disturb a bunch of ants, and then observe what happens!

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

This fun hands-on astronomy activity uses a variety of simple props to help learners understand why they see what they see in a telescope.

This is a fun activity about the power of the Sun and the importance of using sunscreen to protect your sensitive skin from its rays.

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

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Double Dutch), learners will stand twelve feet apart swinging a rope at the slowest tempo possible while someone uses a stopwatch to record

In this activity (on page 2 of PDF), learners create a low-tech refrigerator that requires no electricity to keep food from spoiling.

Learners build particulate matter collectors--devices that collect samples of visible particulates present in polluted air.
