In this activity, learners build a nanorover model using styrofoam meat trays and a balloon.

This demonstration activity models how Venus appears from Earth.

In this activity, learners discover that one way to cool an object in the presence of a heat source is to increase the distance from it or change the angle at which it is faced.

In this activity, learners construct a robot-like hand to demonstrate how data is collected when using robotic technology.

In this Engineering Design Challenge activity, learners will use balloons to investigate how a multi-stage rocket, like that used in the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission, can propel a sat

In this activity, learners use simple materials to construct a balloon-powered pinwheel. The pinwheel is a great way to investigate Newton's Third Law of Motion.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

In this board game, learners explore the origins of meteors, meteoroids, and meteorites as well as the their characteristics and importance. They also discover some misconceptions about meteors.

In this activity, learners craft their own model of a comet on a stick to make it fly around the room.

In this activity, learners investigate parallax, a method used to measure distances to stars and planets in the solar system.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

In this activity, learners make flipbooks of drawings showing the progression of a Total Solar Eclipse.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity demonstrates the shadow of the Earth as it rises as a dark blue shadow above the eastern horizon.

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

In this activity (page 18 of PDF), learners will measure the volume of impact craters created by projectiles of different masses.

This activity (on pages 10-12 of the PDF) encourages learners to consider what makes living things different from non-living things.

Use this Moon Map Guide to help learners identify features on the Moon, while looking through a telescope.

In this two-part activity, learners map a navigation plan to get from Earth to Mars and back. In activity one, learners represent the orbital paths of Earth through dance and dramatic movement.

In this activity, learners will perform various investigations to understand the vestibular-ocular reflex and learn about the importance of visual cues in maintaining balance.

This lesson guide includes six simple and quick activities to help learners better understand Bernoulli's Principle.
