This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this activity, learners explore fractions as they help gators share pies.

In this math activity, learners make a set of fraction cards to play a game that will help relieve their fraction frustrations.

In this fun physics activity (page 9 of the pdf), learners take part in a paper airplane design challenge.

In this math game (Page 6 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners examine the probability of rolling sums from 0 to 12 with two dice. The first player to reach the finish line is the winner.

In this engineering activity, challenge learners to construct a paper bridge that can support 100 pennies.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

This activity is about how you form mental images of your body's position in space, independent of vision. Can you take a sip of water from a cup with your eyes closed?

In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.

What causes frost to form on the outside of a cold container? In this activity, learners discover that liquid water can change states and freeze to become ice.

En esta actividad sobre la densidad de los líquidos, los participantes ven si las gotas de colorante se hunden en diferentes soluciones de agua.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

In this activity, learners will explore how animal in cold areas stay warm.

In this activity, learners explore gravity and air pressure as they experiment with holding a glass full of water upside down, without spilling it, using a simple piece of cardstock.

In this two-part activity, learners use everyday materials to visualize one mole of gas or 22.4 liters of gas. The first activity involves sublimating dry ice in large garbage bag.

Learners experiment to see which colors of light will cause a phosphorescent (glow-in-the-dark) material to glow.

In this activity, learners apply a dissolving test to known crystals to identify the unknown. Since the unknown is chemically the same as one of the known crystals, it should dissolve similarly.

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

This activity is on page 3 (continued on page 2) of the pdf, part of the Simple Machines Discovery Box. In this fun activity, learners "create" a complex machine by simulating the parts in action.

In this fun activity about spiders, learners build and design a spider from cardstock, straw, string, and pipe cleaners.
