In this activity, learners explore how spring scales work and how they are used for non-exact weight measurement.

In this activity, learners investigate the relative growth of lengths, areas, and volumes as cylinders are scaled up.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Music and Sound) is a full inquiry investigation into sound frequency.

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 solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this activity on page 3 of the PDF, learners visualize the relative size and structural differences between microbes that have the potential to cause disease.

In this activity, learners investigate Scanning Probe Microscopes (SPM) and then work in teams using a pencil to explore and identify the shape of objects they cannot see, just as SPMs do at the nano

In this activity, learners will test cups full of potting soil, sand, and sphagnum moss to see which earth material is able to soak up the most water.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

This lesson focuses on how materials behave differently as their surface area increases.

In this activity, learners explore how wind energy can be generated on both a large and small scale.

Groups of learners are provided with a generic car base and an egg. Their mission: design a device/enclosure to protect the egg on or in the car as it rolls down a ramp with increasing slopes.
