In this activity, learners thread gumdrops together to make a model of a polymer.

In this activity, learners use marshmallows and gum drops to construct seven models of molecules. Learners classify (solid, liquid or gas) and draw diagrams of the molecules.

In this activity, learners construct a cereal chain as a model of how proteins are made in the cell.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

In this activity (last activity on the page), learners make a model of the eardrum (also called the "tympanic membrane") and see how sound travels through the air.

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

This is a classic exercise for visualizing the scale of the Solar System.

In this activity, learners explore how eating unhealthy food can damage a heart and arteries.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: California Fish), learners will build a simple Cartesian Diver in an empty 2-liter bottle.

In this dynamic activity, learners build a catapult that launches projectiles, such as marshmallows.
