In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will construct their own spiral "snake" and use it to explore the relationship between heat and kinetic energy.

In this activity, learners build bridges out of newspaper and tape to explore how structures are designed to bear loads.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will--using nothing more than a coat hanger and some string--explore and understand sound energy and how it moves.

In this activity, learners build scaled-down structures and cantilevers in a series of "building out" challenges with bamboo skewers and tape.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

In this activity, learners find as many combinations of a hundred as they can using various puzzle pieces from a hundred square grid paper.

In this activity, learners combine two substances (plaster of Paris and water) to make a cast of an object's imprint in clay.

In this activity, learners play a matching game with their families to discover common inherited traits and traditions. Learners distinguish between inherited traits and learned traditions.

In this activity, learners build a mini dancing robot. This engineering activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, switches, conductivity, and motors.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

In this craft activity, learners will recognize, name, and compare the fractions 1/2, 1/4, and 1/8 by constructing a penguin out of portions of paper circles.

Learners observe different paper samples under ordinary room light and under a black light to learn some of the chemical differences between different types of paper.

In this activity, learners explore sound by constructing a simple piano out of wood and craft sticks.

In this activity, learners will use their nose to sniff out hidden scents using extracts and cotton balls. Activity includes materials list, game instructions, STEM connections and more.

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

These math posters have questions written on them, such as: How fast can a cheetah run? or How long can a giant tortoise live? Post these around the room or leave them out for children to explore.
