In this math activity, learners pretend there is a special store that lets you pay for toys by their height in pennies.

This investigation provides learners with a hands-on activity that simulates the changing relationship of surface areas-to-volume for a growing cell.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

Learners investigate the concept of humidity by using a dry and wet sponge as a model. They determine a model for 100% humidity, a sponge saturated with water.

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.

Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Gecko Feet Activity) about modeling a nanoscale phenomenon (gravity-defying gecko feet) with macroscale objects (shoes).

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs), 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.

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.
