In this oceanography and data collection activity, learners cast real time sea state conditions using buoys from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center.

In this activity on page 15 of the PDF, discover how materials and physical forces behave differently at the nanoscale.

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.

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 activity, learners try pouring water out of a regular cup and a miniature cup. It’s harder than it sounds! Learners discover that different forces dominate at different size scales.

Demonstrate the Bernoulli Principle using simple materials on a small or large scale.

This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Gecko Feet Activity) about the forces of gravity and surface tension and how their behavior is influenced by size.

Learners color and cut out a spiral-shaped snake. When they hang their snake over a radiator, the snake spins.

Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.
