Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this creative outdoor activity, learners invent populations of make-believe organisms and then investigate real populations living in the activity site.

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

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this quick activity, learners observe how wind creates ocean currents.

In this activity, learners design a crushing test and discover that identifying and controlling the variables may be difficult.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this chemistry demonstration, learners investigate the rule "likes dissolve likes" by combining three, immiscible liquids to create a colorful density column.

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

This is a highly visual demonstration that illustrates both the effects of density and chemical reactions.

In this activity, learners predict whether a ball on Earth or a ball on the Moon bounces higher when dropped and why.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Forecasting) is a full inquiry investigation into meteorology and forecasting.

Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.

In this astronomy activity, learners create a model of the solar system using beads and string.

In this activity, learners explore the chemical reaction between water and effervescent antacid tablets. This hands-on activity models how a material can act differently when it's nanometer-sized.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

Learners explore the physical properties of a variety of balls and how they bounce.

In this activity, learners use clear nail polish to create a beautiful iridescent pattern on black paper. Learners discover that a thin film creates iridescent, rainbow colors.

In this outdoor activity, learners become beachcombers as they walk on a sandy beach in search of evidence of life.

In this activity, learners will explore light and rainbows with this easy setup! Learners will only need a cup of water, some paper and a flashlight.
