Probability
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore probability using dice. They will predict and then roll the dice to observe how many rolls it would take to repeat a matching pair. Learn track predictions vs.

Take Me to the (Magnet) Races
Source Institutions
In this activity about magnetism (page 11 of the pdf), learners will experiment with magnets to explore how opposite poles attract and similar poles repel in magnetism.

Spinning Your (Color) Wheels
Source Institutions
In this optics activity, learners use everyday materials to make a color wheel. When learners spin the wheel like a top, they will be surprised to see all the colors mixing together to appear white.

Constellation Detective
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, learners practice locating a constellation in a map of very dark skies.

Spool Racer
Source Institutions
In this physics activity, challenge learners to make a rubber band-powered spool racer. Demonstrate principles of motion as well as potential and kinetic energy.

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

Convection
Source Institutions
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.

Fraction Penguin
Source Institutions
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.

Paper Whites
Source Institutions
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.

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

Molecule Match
Source Institutions
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.

Flubber: Make a polymer!
Source Institutions
This activity (on page 2 of the PDF) features a recipe to create the stretchy polymer Flubber from Borax detergent, white glue, and water.

Sand Paper Rankings
Source Institutions
In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore the sensitivity of their sense of touch.

Depth Perception
Source Institutions
In this easy demonstration (3rd on the page), learners explore depth perception by conducting a test with two pencils.

Snake
Source Institutions
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.

Newspaper Bridges
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build bridges out of newspaper and tape to explore how structures are designed to bear loads.
Coat Hanger Chimes
Source Institutions
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.

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

Sock It To Me!
Source Institutions
In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

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