In this chemistry activity, learners use the lowered freezing point of water to chill another mixture (ice cream) to the solid state.

In this math lesson, learners explore linear patterns, write a pattern in symbolic form, and solve linear equations using algebra tiles, symbolic manipulation, and a graphing calculator.

In this activity, learners compare the number of letters in the names of the people in their families or group of friends.

On the first night, I saw 5 stars in the desert. On the second night, I saw 10… What do you think I saw on the third night? Combine arts and crafts, literacy, and math by making a counting book.

In this design and physics challenge, learners construct a cylindrical wing, fly it, make modifications, and determine how the changes affect flight patterns.

In this activity, learners will measure the length of their shadow from the Sun and compare it three to four months later.

In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

In this activity about cartography, learners work in teams to create two different map projections: a planar (or polar) and a cylindrical (or Mercator) projection.

In this activity, learners explore mammal locomotion by constructing flipbooks.

In this very hands-on lesson, learners will investigate dendrochronology (the study of tree rings to answer ecological questions about the recent past) and come up with conclusions as to what possible

How do you measure a bubble when it's floating? You can't really, but in this activity, learners can measure the diameter of the ring of suds a bubble leaves on a flat surface.

In this activity, learners build and play three math games. In the first game, called "Switcheroo," learners place marbles in holes 1 through 4 and 7 through 10.

In this activity, learners make a device called a phenakistoscope, which displays a continuously looping animation consisting of images drawn onto a spinning disc.

This activity (on pages 15-23) combines interactive role-playing and graphing to introduce learners to the health affects of pollen.

In this activity, learners explore how mirrors reflect light and change the way we see things.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this online activity, learners will explore size estimation in one, two and three dimensions. Multiple levels of difficulty allow for progressive skill improvement.

Learners use a spring scale to drag an object such as a ceramic coffee cup along a table top or the floor.

Jugando a este juego de estrategia, los chicos desarrollan su entendimiento de área y perímetro. En su turno, cada jugador hace una línea entre dos punto contiguos en la cuadrícula.

In this activity, learners arrange triangles together to make patterns to create paper quilts. Learners experiment with arranging the triangles in different ways to make various designs.
