In this activity, learners make "totally tubular" forms of carbon. Learners use chicken wire to build macro models of carbon nanotubes.

This activity demonstrates the specificity of viral vectors for target cells in gene therapy delivery methods using two approaches: 1) STYROFOAM® models demonstrate viral ligand binding to receptor pr

In this activity, learners explore how to protect their skin while applying pesticides to plants.

In this paleontology activity, learners explore the system behind dinosaur nomenclature.

In this chemistry challenge, learners discover that many chemical reactions involve heat loss or gain.

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.

In this activity on page 2 of the PDF, learners discover how color changes can help scientists distinguish between acids and bases.

In this activity, learners use cardboard bases and track tubes to make a ball run to explore the properties of mass, force, and motion.

In this activity, learners investigate how inkjet printers produce tiny, precise drops of ink.

In this lab exercise, learners explore diffusion, cell membranes and particle size using beets and three alcohols.

Learners observe working lava lamps to understand how they work (included in PDF link).

In this activity, learners will turn healthy greens into crispy snacks. Explore concepts of nutrition, dehydration and cooking to create healthy food.

In this activity (p.7-8 of PDF), learners examine fossil formation.

In this activity, learners discover how a piece of fruit can act as an electrolyte, conducting electricity between two different metals.

In this activity, learners discover the relationship between temperature and pressure in the lower atmospheres of Jupiter and Earth.

In this activity, learners make their own bath bomb fizzies and experience what happens when they mix a base and an acid.

In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

Learners observe and discuss a simple model of a wet scrubber, a device for cleaning industrial air pollution.

In this activity, learners experiment with their voices and noisemakers to understand the connections between vibrations and the sounds created by those vibrations.

In this activity, pairs of learners model how scientists use craters to determine the ages of lunar surfaces. One partner keeps time while the other creates a painting for the other to interpret.
