In this activity, learners make their own rock candy. Crystals will grow from a piece of string hanging in a cup of sugar water. The edible crystals may take up to a week to form.

In this simple activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make a crystal garden using salt, water, and a brick.

In this botany activity, learners will create an experiment about seed germination. This activity gives students an opportunity to explore how seeds germinate and react to surrounding conditions.

In this activity, learners find out what happens when they cover leaves with pieces of black construction paper. This activity shows learners that plants need sunlight to survive.

In this combination chemistry and physics activity, learners explore water absorption in dried beans or peas and learn how this affects their physical properties.

In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will learn about crystals by growing their very own.

In this activity, learners will discover how the thin layers of amphibians' skin allow water and other chemicals to pass through it.

After an interest-generating discussion about "dirt" and microbes, learners select and collect soil samples from a variety of locations (schoolyard, home, etc.).

In this activity, learners will explore vegetative propagation while preparing food scraps to grow into plants.

In this chemistry activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will identify the instances of physical change, chemical change, and solutions while making homemade soda pop.

In this activity (located at the bottom of the page), learners investigate soil and explore the creatures that live in it.

In this lab (Activity #1 on page), learners compare bacteria growth on two petri dishes containing nutrient agar: one that has been touched by a finger washed only with water and one that has been tou

This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Bone Regrowth Activity) about the two main components of bone - collagen and minerals (like calcium) - and how they each contribute to its flexibility a

In this activity, learners explore how packaging engineers develop customized shipping and packaging containers to meet the needs of many different industries.

This lesson focuses on surface area and how the shape of sugar crystals may differ as they are grown from sugars of different coarseness.

In this four-day activity, learners grow bacteria and/or fungi from a variety of locations and compare the results.

In this activity, learners explore chemistry and the microbial world by making their own sourdough starter and bread at home using only flour and water.
