In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

In this activity, learners explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners apply a dissolving test to known crystals to identify the unknown. Since the unknown is chemically the same as one of the known crystals, it should dissolve similarly.

In this activity about saturation (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Sand Dunes), learners will build a series of sand castle towers using a 16 oz cup.

Learners explore the variables that affect the properties of ice and the places where different types of ice are found.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners locate and study plants and animals in several freshwater pond habitats.

Learners observe and conduct experiments demonstrating the different properties of hot and cold materials.

In this activity, learners build models of atoms and molecules, then consider their role in different phases of matter, density, and mixtures and solutions.

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

In this activity, learners explore the function and engineering of dams and how dams have many uses and solve many problems in the world.

Learners create a model of a wetland to observe how it absorbs and filters water from the environment.

In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

This three-part lab helps learners understand the essential principles governing diffusion and osmosis.

In this experiment, learners try different liquids to see which ones clean pennies best. Liquids to try include water, lemon juice, cola, vinegar, and dishwashing detergent.

In this activity related to flight, learners build a tiny stream channel to investigate how fluids (air and water) change speed as they flow between and around objects.

Build a hydrometer (measures the density of a liquid) using a pipet or eyedropper.

In this outdoor activity, learners race small boats, made of cork, balsa wood, popsicle sticks etc., to investigate the rate and direction of currents in a stream or creek.

In this math lesson, learners design an experiment to model a leaky faucet and determine the amount of water wasted due to the leak.

In this multi-part activity learners examine non-point water pollution.

In this chemistry challenge, learners discover that many chemical reactions involve heat loss or gain.
