DIY Pasta Rover
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners design and build a NASA rover using raw pasta and candy with a limited imaginary budget.

Bone Identification
Source Institutions
This activity (page 3 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Dinosaurs) is a full inquiry investigation into fossil hunting and identification.

Density Stacker
Source Institutions
In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the property of density.

Beam Me Up!
Source Institutions
This is a quick activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Stained Glass Activity) about the "Tyndall effect," the scattering of visible light when it hits very small dispersed particles.

Our Chemical Senses: Olfaction
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the olfactory system by conducting several experiments.

The Three Basic States (Phases) of Matter
Source Institutions
This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can explore the three states of matter by examining tactile models that illustrate the characteristics of particles in each sta

Conductivity Meter
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a simple qualitative conductivity tester with a battery, bulb and foil.

Breathing Room
Source Institutions
In this health activity, learners explore breathing, lungs and asthma. Learners test their lung capacity by blowing air into balloons.

Circuit Board
Source Institutions
Learners make a circuit board that has questions and answers. When the correct answer is chosen for a question, a circuit is completed and a light illuminates.

Exploring Structures
Source Institutions
This event guide features three related explorations in which learners investigate the following science concepts: how you design and build a structure helps determine how strong it will be; different

Tide Pool Survival
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners observe tide pool animals in a touch tank to consider how they survive.

Cloud Fun
Source Institutions
Learners complete a series of hands-on and investigative activities to explore cumulus clouds.

Exploring the Nanoworld with LEGO Bricks: Structures at the Nanoscale
Source Institutions
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.

Clay Exploration
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the possibilities of clay as a natural material.

From Farm to Table
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners imagine the path their food takes from planting a seed, all the way to sitting on their kitchen counters. Explore concepts for each step food takes to reach your home.

A Hurricane's Storm Surge Affects our Estuaries
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a coastal landmass from sand and add features such as tidal creeks and barrier islands.

Castles Inside and Out
Source Institutions
In this three-day lesson, learners identify two-dimensional shapes used in castle construction, create a castle collage using assorted shapes, and design tapestries using repeated patterns of color, s

Minibot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a mini dancing robot. This engineering activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, switches, conductivity, and motors.

ROV Races
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will work together to create a program to navigate a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) through an obstacle course.

Jitterbugs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct bug models that "jitter" all over the table with just a battery, motor, and counterweight.
