In this activity, learners simulate taking HIV antiretroviral drugs by using Tic Tac mints and Kool-Aid packets.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering design process (EDP)—the process engineers use to solve design challenges.

In this simulation, learners use M&M™ candy to explore radioactive isotope decay.

In this activity (25th on the page) about learning and memory, learners explore a training method that animal trainers employ called "shaping." Working in pairs, learners will attempt to "shape" each

In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

In this activity, learners drop impactors onto layers of graham crackers!

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

In this kinesthetic activity, learners move pom-pom "ions" across a membrane to simulate how an action potential is propagated along an axon.

In this activity, learners create an electrical circuit and investigate how some dissolved substances conduct electricity.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted our society and how engineers have learned to explore the world at the nanoscale.

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

In this activity, learners use a flashlight, a glass of water, and some milk to examine why the sky is blue and sunsets are red.

This is an activity about robotics programming. Learners will discover how precise programmers have to be as they instruct a friend to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

In this activity, learners follow step-by-step instructions to build a gel electrophoresis chamber using inexpensive materials from local hardware and electronic stores.

In this activity, learners work in groups to design a parachute out of household items that keeps an egg secure when dropped from a certain height.

In this activity, learners bake cookies by following different recipes to better understand genetic mutations. Everyone in the group bakes the same type of cookie: chocolate chip.

This lesson is designed to serve as an introduction to the immune system. It can stand alone or it can lead into further studies of the immune system.

In this activity, learners use a model for how fishing affects marine life populations, and will construct explanations for one of the reasons why fish populations are declining.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a shock-absorbing system that will protect two “astronauts” when they land.

In this simulation, learners act out each digestive function of the organs, tissues, and cells in the digestive tract.
