In this activity, learners explore why frost forms. They create their own frost using a solution of ice water and salt in a glass.

In this forensics activity, students will explore the methods that investigators use to confirm the authenticity of handwriting.

In this activity, learners use UV light to transfer a pattern onto a plastic board. The pattern is transferred by placing a mask (a transparency sheet with the pattern) on a plastic board.

In this activity about global climate change, learners will conduct an experiment and collect data to compare the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in four different sources of gases.

Learners create a tool to measure how well they grip a wet object when their fingers are smooth versus wrinkly. Are smooth or wrinkly fingers better at holding on to the object?

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

In this multi-station lab, learners conduct a series of experiments to explore the processes and effects of weathering and erosion.

Learners construct and launch paper helicopters.

In this activity, learners determine whether thermal energy can be used for work.

In this activity, learners investigate how increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from the burning of fossil fuels is changing the acidity (pH) of the ocean and affecting coral reefs and other marin

In this demonstration, learners can observe a number of small convection cells generated from a mixture of aluminum powder and silicon oil on a hot plate.

In this activity, learners explore chemiluminescence and fluorescence. Learners examine 3 different solutions in regular light, in the dark with added bleach solution, and under a black light.

In this activity, learners observe the water cycle in action! Water vapor in a tumbler condenses on chilled aluminum foil — producing the liquid form of water familiar to us as rain and dew.

From the Weather Watchers featured theme on the CYBERCHASE website. Learners will conduct experiments to discover how air temperature and humidity work together to make condensation, dew, and fog.

In this activity on page 24, learners perform experiments to examine whether or not trash can float, blow around, or wash away.

In this nutrition/food science activity, learners conduct an experiment and record data to compare the amount of fat in different foods.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore how similar magnetic poles repel one another. They will rely on linear induction to race magnets around a simple course.

In this experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

This lesson focuses on molecular motion in gases. Learners compare the mass of a basketball when it is deflated and after it has been inflated.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.
