In this activity, learners make a simple spring-like scale using a rubber band instead of a spring, and calibrate the scale in newtons (N).

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

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

In this activity related to microbes, learners create scale models of microorganisms and compare relative sizes of common bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa using metric measures: meters, centimete

In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.

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 model the gravitational fields of planets on a flexible surface.

This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

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.
