In this activity about electricity, learners identify closed and open circuits. First, learners examine and label diagrams of open and closed circuits.

This lesson focuses on graphene and its electrical properties and applications.

In this activity, learners construct models of plants that are adapted to living under specific environmental conditions.

In the wild, small crustaceans known as brine shrimp live in marine habitats such as saltwater lakes.

In this activity, learners construct a device that projects images onto a surface, so they can trace landscapes and other sights.

In this activity, learners use a chemical reaction to visualize where moisture forms on the body.

In this activity (page 23 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to determine how the size and mass of a projectile affects the area and the volume of an impact crater.

In this lab, learners experience how dolphins and other echolocating animals use their senses to locate and identify objects without using their sense of sight.

In this outdoor activity, learners plan a simple foot path and create an environmental impact study of the natural area where the path would be.

In this outdoor, sensory activity, learners role play as animals trying to identify their "family's" scent and locate their "territory." Learners mark their territories and sniff out other territories

In this activity on page 4 of the PDF (Behind the Scenes with Chemistry), learners make some special effects, including snow and breaking glass, with supplies found in the home.

The goal of this Star Wars activity is to design and build a balancing device to help an Ewok escape the Imperial Forces by sliding down a tightrope to safety.

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

In this activity, learners explore the work of paleontologists.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.

In this activity, learners construct a simple air pressure launcher for paper rockets.

In this activity about the heart (on page 22 of the PDF), learners examine sheep or chicken hearts to learn about the heart's structure and the flow of blood through the heart.

In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

The Let's Do Chemistry "Build a Battery" activity lets participants learn how batteries work and how materials behave, change, and interact by building their own simple battery out of metal and felt w

In this activity, learners explore how an electromagnet works by making a simple one. Using this knowledge, learners design a diagram to make a working speaker using household materials.
