In this activity, learners are challenged to lift a floating ice cube out of a glass of water using just one end of a piece of string.

In this health activity (on page 3 of the PDF), learners will learn about the body‘s defenses against invasion from tiny particles.

In this activity, learners dissect a piece of pizza to learn about nutrients important for health.

In this activity, learners mix ingredients in a plastic bag, and then identify three characteristics of a chemical reaction: production of heat, color change, and production of a gas.

In this activity (on pages 25-31 of PDF), learners soak sponges with different amounts of plaster of paris to simulate different levels of calcification in bone formation.

These two activities (4th on the page) demonstrate the importance of two eyes in judging depth.

In this activity, learners use chocolate to explore how the Sun transfers heat to the Earth through radiation.

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the rule "likes dissolve likes" by combining three, immiscible liquids to create a colorful density column.

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this introductory activity and demonstration, learners are introduced to the concept that different substances react chemically in characteristic ways.

This activity about density provides instructions for making a miniature "lava lite" with just salt, oil, water, and food coloring.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this geology activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners explore how carbonic acid can slowly dissolve limestone and form caves.

In this activity about combustion and energy, learners observe a burning candle in a sealed jar and the burning of white sugar.

Learners write their initials by applying different clear "magic ink" solutions to separate pieces of paper and then "develop" the inks with other clear solutions.

In this physics activity, learners will investigate the strength of egg shells.

In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.

In this activity related to flight, learners build a tiny stream channel to investigate how fluids (air and water) change speed as they flow between and around objects.

Learners use Benedict’s solution and heat to test for the presence of simple sugars in glucose, sucrose, starch, and starch combined with amylase.
