In this activity, learners will estimate the sizes of balls to learn how to estimate the size of hail. Learners will compare their estimates to the estimates of their peers and the real measurements.

In this activity on page 1 of the PDF, learners compare the relative sizes of biological objects (like DNA and bacteria) that can't be seen by the naked eye.

In this fun sticker activity, learners will create a size wheel with images of objects of different size, from macroscopic scale (like an ant) to nanoscale (like DNA).

In this activity about depth perception, learners create an optical illusion in a shoe box.

In this activity, learners will participate in a scavenger hunt involving sizes, shapes, and numbers. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this math activity, learners make their own bubble wands and determine if the size of the wand affects the number of bubbles it produces.

In this activity, learners explore a scale by comparing objects, which look similar but have different weights. Learners predict and then measure the weights of various objects using a scale.

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

This is a hands-on activity exploring how nanoscale particles are used in mineral sunblocks to increase their transparency.

In this activity, learners investigate whether more people are squares or rectangles. People with similarly sized heights and arm spans are classified as squares.

In this activity, learners observe live fish in tanks to consider how their body structures are related to their behaviors and habitats.

This activity (located on page 2 of PDF) introduces learners to the real size of animals using nonstandard measurement.

In this lab exercise, learners explore diffusion, cell membranes and particle size using beets and three alcohols.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this demonstration/activity, learners observe as a regular size marshmallow is blown through a tube made from a manila file folder.

By making models of light waves with paper, learners can understand why different colors appear in bubbles.

This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can have a tactile opportunity to construct a karyotype, an organized model of an organism’s chromosomes, conveying the chromos

In this math activity, learners create their own units of measurement by making noodle rulers. Learners practice estimating and measuring objects using the noodle rulers .

In this activity, learners engineer a flying glider using paper hoops and a drinking straw.

In this activity, learners compare different types of salt crystals under a magnifying glass.
