Create beautiful spirals by drawing a straight line. This sounds crazy, but you can with a turntable (a record player or lazy susan), paper, and pen.

In this activity, learners will examine various world data maps to combine the information and predict which areas could be tropical rainforests.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Luge Activity), learners will construct a model hovercraft out of an empty spool and a piece of cardboard.

In this activity, learners investigate just how small a billionth of a meter is by attempting to cut a paper ruler down to a nanometer-sized sliver.

Learners place an M&M candy in water and observe what happens. The sugar-and-color coating dissolves and spreads out in a circular pattern around the M&M.

Learners mix a variety of substances with red cabbage juice. The juice changes color to indicate whether each substance is an acid or a base.

In this group activity, learners will mark important developments of life on Earth on a timeline (each foot in length representing 200 million years).

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 optics activity, learners create flip books by drawing an image like an eye opening and closing on 24 small pages of paper.

In this activity, learners help a poor cartographer color in the countries on a map, making sure each country is colored a different color than any of its neighbors.

This demonstration activity models how Venus appears from Earth.

In this activity, learners discover that one way to cool an object in the presence of a heat source is to increase the distance from it or change the angle at which it is faced.

In this demonstration about momentum, use physics to distinguish between a hard-boiled egg and a raw egg without cracking them open.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners use art supplies to build models of insects, both real or imagined.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the factors that increase the rate of dissolution for a solid.

This game is like regular bingo, except the clues are sounds.

In this math activity (Page 8 of the Dining Out! PDF), younger learners select items from a menu and count out the total amount needed using the fewest bills and coins possible.

In this activity, learners investigate the Earth's rotation and how to tell the time of day without a clock. Thsi simple activity only requires a paper plate, a pencil, and sunshine.

In this activity, learners play an evolution card game to see how selective pressures can affect an organism's evolution.
