In this experiment with planaria (a type of flatworm), learners will investigate the capability of different body sections to regenerate.

In this activity, learners simulate taking HIV antiretroviral drugs by using Tic Tac mints and Kool-Aid packets.

Learners build a simple aneroid barometer to learn about changes in barometric pressure and weather forecasting. They observe their barometer and record data over a period of days.

In this activity learners observe mold growth on different types of bread by measuring and recording the growth rate.

As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

In this environmental science activity, learners research what is essential for plant life and the necessary components of soil to support plants.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this environmental activity (page 16 of the PDF), learners will calculate the amount of energy they save by recycling paper, plastic, glass, and aluminum materials over the span of a week.

In this activity, learners will train to increase bone strength and to improve heart and other muscle endurance by performing jump training with a rope, both while stationary and moving.

In this fun and in depth hands-on experiment, learners test various liquid samples (distilled water, lemon juice, vinegar, and baking soda mixed with water) to determine their pH levels and identify e

This activity shows you how to make a mold terrarium using a jar and leftover food.

The Ancient Egyptians used a naturally-occurring salt from the banks of the Nile River, called natron, to mummify their dead.

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

In this activity, learners will train to improve lung, heart, and other muscle endurance as they walk a progressive, measured distance.

In this 7-10 day investigation, learners develop an understanding of waves and tides and their motion through discussion, demonstration, and hands-on activities.

In this activity, learners build a plastic emergence chamber (or use purchased "mini mosquito breeder") to observe and analyze the mosquito life cycle.

In this activity, learners train to increase muscular strength and improve upper and lower body coordination by performing the “bear crawl” and the "crab walk.” Learners perform the exercises over tim

In this outdoor activity, learners construct bird feeders and set them up at to investigate bird behavior for one or two weeks. Multiple feeder designs are suggested.

In this activity, learners will train to develop upper and lower body strength in their muscles and bones by performing body-weight squats and push-ups.
