Learners investigate how drag affects the falling rate of objects.

In this activity, learners build a simple electrolysis device. Then learners use an indicating solution to visualize hydrogen and oxygen molecules in water.

This activity focuses on interactions within Earth systems and the effects of human activities. In this activity learners build a biomass pyramid.

This PDF contains 12 calendars (12 months). Each month contains activities about math. Things to do on familiar holidays (like July 4), less common holidays (like Backward Day), and any day.

In this activity, learners plan and create a 24-foot long, two-dimensional model of our solar system, and compare and contrast the differences between planets and the sun.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

In this activity, learners identify different plastics in a mystery bag. Learners discover that plastics are classified #1 through #7.

In this activity, learners investigate convection by using food coloring and water of different temperatures.

In this outdoor activity, learners use a mapping technique to become oriented to the major features of an outdoor site.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

In this activity (page 89 of the PDF), learners compare and contrast pitch and roll motions by using a Magic Carpet maze similar to one that was used for Neurolab investigations about microgravity.

In this outdoor, windy day activity, learners "fly" and race leaves along a line to discover which types of leaves catch the most wind. Which leaves are the best fliers? Why?

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

In this weather activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will construct their very own anemometer to measure wind speed.

In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.

In this activity, learners use aluminum trays and wooden blocks to form stream tables to investigate river formations in two different landscape scenarios.

In this outdoor activity, learners search for the warmest and coolest, windiest and calmest, wettest and driest, and brightest and darkest spots in an area.
