In this activity about molecular diffusion (located on page 2 of the PDF under Nanosilver Activity), learners will make predictions and move molecules of iodine through a seemingly solid plastic sandw

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this activity, learners explore fractions as they help gators share pies.

In this activity, learners create a model of a hot air balloon using tissue paper and a hairdryer. Educators can use this activity to introduce learners to density and its role in why things float.

This math challenge, played with two players or a whole group, engages your problem solving skills.

In this math activity, learners make a set of fraction cards to play a game that will help relieve their fraction frustrations.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF) is a full inquiry investigation into mapping the underground “plumbing” of geysers.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Gecko Feet Activity) about modeling a nanoscale phenomenon (gravity-defying gecko feet) with macroscale objects (shoes).

Learners build a pendulum from a yo-yo, and then design their own experiment to determine what affects the pendulum's period of swing.

In this math game (Page 6 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners examine the probability of rolling sums from 0 to 12 with two dice. The first player to reach the finish line is the winner.

En esta actividad, los aprendices usarán la lógica para ganar un juego. Dos personas toman turnos quitando uno o dos "cuerdas" de las estacas en el suelo.

In this activity, learners will explore two-dimensional shapes that are found in three-dimensional shapes. Learners will explore geometry, design, color and tool use through this activity.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

In this activity, learners investigate the movement of water into and out of a polymer. Learners test the diffusion of water through gummy bears, which are made of sugar and gelatin (a polymer).

In this two-part outdoor activity, learners conduct a population census of squirting clams on a beach or mudflat, and investigate the clams' natural history.

In this activity (located on page 9 of the PDF), learners are introduced to Aesop's fable, "The Crow and the Pitcher." In the story, a clever crow drops pebbles into a pitcher to cause the water level

In this math activity, learners play a game and use a variety of strategies to solve a hidden number problem (or missing factor). Learners practice their number and operations skills.

In this activity, learners will decide together on a question about how far, long or high the group could reach together.

This activity shows learners how computers use numbers to represent pictures. A grid is used to represent the pixels (short for picture elements) of a computer screen.

In this health and genetics activity, learners determine whether tasting the bitter compound PTC (phenylthiocarbamide) influences which vegetables a person likes.
