In this activity (on pages 12-15), learners make a crater model and test the effects of weather (rain) on its surface.

In this activity, learners build edible models of Jupiter and Earth to compare their sizes and illustrate the planets' internal layers.

Learners investigate a pre-constructed mystery tube to determine its interior mechanism.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

Directed by instructional cards, learners kinesthetically model cell communication by acting as components in a cell signaling pathway.

Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

In this activity, learners make a model of the solid Earth's layers that's good enough to eat! Learners use tasty foodstuffs to simulate Earth's inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this activity, learners make a 3-D model of DNA using paper and toothpicks. While constructing this model, learners will explore the composition and structure of DNA.

In this activity, learners make bridges using an oil-based modeling clay (plasticene). The instructions include discussion questions for both before and after bridge building.

Learners explore the Bernoulli effect by building an airfoil (airplane wing) and making it fly.

In this hands-on activity, learners will become familiar with the special adaptations of rainforest plants and discover the conditions needed for tropical trees to survive along with what can impinge

In this activity, learners create a three-dimensional sculpture while examining the characteristics of fish.

Learners work in groups to construct bridges using stale marshmallows and toothpicks.

In this activity, learners build one or more edible coral polyps and place them together to form a colony.

In this craft activity, learners will explore the structure and purpose of antelope horns by constructing their own headband using toilet paper rolls and yarn.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity (located on page 2), learners will construct tiny model geysers out of film canisters, warm water, and antacid seltzer tablets.

In this activity (located on page 5 of PDF), learners work in groups to create dig sites for display.

In this activity, learners will build a roller coaster for a marble to run on using everyday household materials such as paper towel or toilet paper rolls, cups, boxes, books, buckets, chairs, etc.
