In this activity, learners use chemistry to “self-assemble” gummy shapes. Learners discover that self-assembly is a process by which molecules and cells form themselves into functional structures.

Young learners investigate and observe the properties of three liquids -- water, vegetable oil, and corn syrup. They use their senses to collect data and ask and answer questions.

In this activity, learners will explore how the voice works and feel the vibrations produced by vocal cords.

In this hands-on botany activity, learners sprout vegetables in film canisters.

In this activity, learners explore how salt water freezes in comparison to fresh water.

This three-part activity consists of an activity that groups of learners develop themselves, a given procedure, and an optional demonstration.

In this health activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will discover why covering their mouth and nose while sneezing is so important.

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.

In this activity, learners make their own bug boxes and test the habitat preference of selected "minibeasts" (bugs).

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

In this activity, learners make pykrete by freezing a mixture of water and a material like cotton wool, grass, hair, shredded paper, wood chips, or sawdust.

In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

In this activity, learners explore the behavior of cold-blooded animals. Learners discover what happens when they change a fly's temperature.

In this optics activity, learners explore color by examining color dots through colored water and the light of a flashlight.

In this activity, learners explore the structure of plant leaves. Learners find out what happens when they coat either the top or bottom sides of leaves with petroleum jelly.

In this activity, learners turn empty 2-liter bottles into a see-through compost container.

This exercise is designed to teach young learners the different parts of a plant (root, stems, leaves, flowers, fruit, and seeds), the basic functions of each part, and to show that tiny microscopic o

The "Rocket Reactions" activity is an exciting way to learn about how materials interact, behave, and change.

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 physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the property of density.
