In this math activity (Page 12 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "soccer" and analyze the results of the game.

In this activity, learners construct a simple game to test their hand-eye coordination and steadiness of hand.

In this math activity (Page 14 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "basketball" and analyze the results of the game.

In this quick activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Extreme Sounds) about sound vibrations, learners will investigate which small objects, such as coins, hex nuts, or marbles, produce t

Make a kite out of a garbage bag, shower curtain, painting tarp--anything light, thin, flexible and plastic!

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into the forces of gravity and air pressure.

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Luge Activity), learners will construct a model hovercraft out of an empty spool and a piece of cardboard.

In this math game (Page 14 of the Are You Game? PDF), learners determine the probability of getting an even versus an odd product using the numbers on a regular deck of cards.

In this activity, learners create a toy that demonstrates the First Law of Thermodynamics or the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Build a glider that uses the same physics as a curve ball, for less than a dime.

Using paper, paper clips, an index card, and tape, teams of learners design flying devices to (1) stay in the air as long as possible and (2) land as close as possible to a given target.

In this math activity (Page 17 of the Play Ball! PDF), learners play a game of "baseball" and analyze the results of the game.

In this activity (15th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners use glue and cardboard to construct a maze they use with their eyes closed.

Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

In this activity, learners will experiment with the physics of forces - kinetic energy and friction while making a moving toy woodpecker.

In this activity, learners with explore the gases present in air. They will then build their own wind cannons and challenge family and friends to a friendly competition.

Learners follow the template to build and fly a paper helicopter.

Learners build pan pipes out of drinking straws by cutting them to different lengths. Then, learners make music by blowing across the straws and playing some well-known songs.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this physics activity, learners use square blocks to explore how towers fall. Learners attach a piece of string to the side of a block and then construct a tall tower on top of this base block.
