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

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

In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

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

In this space science activity, learners work together to create a human-powered orrery to model the movements of the four inner planets.

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 create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this activity, learners model the gravitational fields of planets on a flexible surface.

In this activity, learners make a model of a pollution spill that occurred at Bangs Lake in Mississippi and measure water quality parameters in their model.
