In this activity, learners use a flexible magnet as a model for a scanning probe microscope (SPM). They learn that SPMs are an example of a special tool that scientists use to work on the nanoscale.

In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

Most people will break a bone in their body at some point in their life, but how much force does it take to break one?

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

Learners will build and experiment with their own windmills made from simple household materials.

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

In this math lesson, learners explore and investigate measurement using standard and non-standard units.

In this activity (located on page 6 of PDF), learners observe and reproduce the distinctive physical features (i.e. plates, sharp spikes, long necks, deep jaws, claws) of their favorite dinosaurs.

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.
