In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

In this activity, learners make scale models of the Sun and Earth out of paper mache.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners build a scale model of the universe with little more than adding machine tape.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

In this activity, learners build a miniature wind tunnel to measure force. Learners construct the model out of Lexan plastic, a fan, and a precise digital scale.

In this activity, learners are challenged to calculate their own weight on various planets using a scale and calculator. Older learners may be challenged to do so without using calculators.

In this fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity, learners construct a model of our place in the Milky Way Galaxy and the distribution of stars, with a quarter and some birdseed.

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

This game introduces learners to the scale of the greenhouse gas problem, plus technologies that already exist to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions and prevent climate change.
