In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this four-part activity, learners will discover the exciting world of light--the most important form of energy in our world--and be able to identify and describe different types of light.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 8 of PDF), learners estimate average daily baseline energy (Calorie) needs and energy needs for different levels of activity.

In this food science activity, learners conduct an experiment that demonstrates the importance of light to plants.

Learners mix a solution of luminol with hydrogen peroxide to produce a reaction that gives off blue light.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 5 of PDF), learners conduct an experiment to compare how much energy is released as heat from two different foods.

In this activity about the relationship between food and energy (page 1 of PDF), learners observe and quantify the growth of yeast when it is given table sugar as a food source.

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

Visitors mix urea with water in one flask and mix calcium chloride with water in another flask. They observe that the urea flask gets cold and the calcium chloride flask gets hot.

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