In this activity, learners of all ages will experiment with paint and printmaking.

In this activity, learners will make their own slushies and learn some of the science behind how the process works.

Make a rattle-like musical instrument! Shake it, hit it, spin it any way you want to!

Discover geometry by creating shapes from loops of paper. In this activity, paper loops transform to give you totally new structures when you cut them.

In this activity, learners investigate Scanning Probe Microscopes (SPM) and then work in teams using a pencil to explore and identify the shape of objects they cannot see, just as SPMs do at the nano

In this activity (located on pages 23-24 of the PDF), learners are introduced to structural engineering and encouraged to practice goal-oriented building.

This activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Exercise and Memory) is a full inquiry investigation into the effects of exercise on short term memory.

In this activity, learners will design a protective package for an egg that will allow the egg to withstand a fall without cracking.

In this activity about soil (page 7 of the PDF), learners will use their sense of touch as well as sight to understand how soil is classified based on texture and other details.

In this activity, learners discuss and investigate how cameras, telescopes, and their own eyes use light in similar ways.

In this activity, learners will build a simple electromagnet. They will test variables that would make the electromagnet stronger.

In this outdoor archaeology activity, learners use mathematical skills and scientific inquiry to generate and process information from their own excavation site.

In this physics activity, learners will explore the concept of buoyancy, especially as it relates to density.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Extreme Sounds) is a full inquiry investigation into sound.

In this genetics activity, learners extract DNA from an onion, using detergent solution, a food processor, and rubbing alcohol. They will also discuss genetic engineering of plants.

In this activity, learners experiment and observe how the color of materials that cover the Earth affects the amounts of sunlight our planet absorbs.

Learners apply their knowledge from a previous study to identify different liquids--water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil.

Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

In this activity, learners will explore pendulum motion through scientific trials by using household items with different length strings.

Learners conduct an experiment to determine the rate at which two materials, sand and water, heat up and cool down.
