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

In this activity, learners discover how frogs' bodies change while growing from a tadpole to a frog. Learners create a simple craft that gives a visual display of the metamorphosis process.

In this activity, learners create three-dimensional shapes by making some origami models of simple boxes and containers.

In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.

Did you know that a Slinky makes a handy model of earthquake waves?

In this activity, learners use pop-beads to understand the characteristics and properties of polymer chains.

In this activity, learners eat a snack and make a model of the plumbing system of a volcano.

In this activity, learners make their own edible DNA double helix out of candy and find out about the shape of DNA.

In this activity, learners explore different types of fossils by making their out of dough and objects from around the house.

In this activity (pages 7-16), learners model various crystal structures with LEGOs. This activity also contains additional links that explain how to create other crystal structures.

In this activity, learners cut a shape into two equal sized pieces and use their knowledge of geometry and space to prove that the two parts are equal.

In this online activity, learners build their own system of heavenly bodies and watch the gravitational ballet.

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

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Tug O' War), learners will test how many pennies a flat paper index card bridging the gap between two stacks of books is able to supp

In this activity (on page 8), learners model how marble statues and buildings are affected by acid rain.

In this simulation, learners explore how ocean currents spread all kinds of pollution—including oil spills, sewage, pesticides and factory waste—far beyond where the pollution originates.

This is an activity about motion, power, air and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Cactus Activity), learners will develop their own version of a tool used by biologists, a dichotomous key, by collecting all their left shoes.

This activity demonstrates liquefaction, the process by which some soils lose their solidity during an earthquake.

In this activity, learners create a model of a neuron by using colored clay or play dough. Learners use diagrams to build the model and then label the parts on a piece of paper.
