In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

In this food science activity, learners explore digestion and proteins by observing the action of meat tenderizer on luncheon meat.

In this neuroscience activity, learners conduct a simulation to demonstrate how multiple incoming signals influence the action of neurons.

In this activity, learners play a simple card game to learn the sequence of events in the transmission of nervous system signals.

In this activity, learners estimate risks associated with different events and compare their estimates to the real possibilities.

In this activity, learners observe what happens when yeast cells are provided with a source of food (sugar). Red cabbage "juice" will serve as an indicator for the presence of carbon dioxide.

In this activity, learners create an electrical circuit and investigate how some dissolved substances conduct electricity.

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

In this activity, learners use a microscope to examine three different microbes: bacteria, yeast and paramecia. Educator will need to prepare the yeast solution one day before the activity.

This activity helps learners visualize the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) by constructing three-dimensional HIV particle models from paper.

In this activity related to microbes, learners make slides of cells from an onion skin and Elodea (American or Canadian waterweed) to observe under a microscope.

This neuroscience activity introduces learners to how messages are sent and received by neurons. Learners use modeling clay and pipe cleaners to build model neurons.

In this activity about combustion and energy, learners observe a burning candle in a sealed jar and the burning of white sugar.

In this activity related to microbes, learners use water drops and hand lenses to begin the exploration of magnification. This activity also introduces learners to the microscope.

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