Los Momentos de Mixing in Math son actividades de 5 a 10 minutos que mantienen a los chicos ocupados, aprendiendo sobre el mundo, y usando matemáticas por su cuenta.

In this activity, learners will explore their center of gravity.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers use scales and measures when designing a manufacturing process to ensure that final products are uniform in weight or count.

In this activity, learners explore chemical engineering and how the processes of chemical plating and electroplating have impacted many industries.

Take the two-straw challenge and discover how pressure affects vacuums! In this activity, learners experiment with drinking through one and two straws, comparing the amount of liquid they can drink.

In this activity, learners construct wands that play different notes depending on information from light sensors programmed via a PICO Cricket.

In this activity (2nd activity on the page), learners explore how the nose is responsible for part of the flavor we taste in food.

In this activity about olfaction (7th activity on the page), learners use natural ingredients to concoct their own perfume.

In this activity (on page 2), one person "programs" the other like a robot to move through a space, trying to get them to avoid obstacles and reach a goal.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

In this exploratory activity, learners experiment, observe and determine how various toys change from one form of energy to another.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

Have fun with additive mixing! Observe what happens when the three primary colors of light--red, green and blue--are mixed together, resulting in white light.

With a magnet, iron fillings, and a bottle, you can create a cool demonstration about magnetic lines of force: the fillings will arrange themselves within the magnet's magnetic field.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a tower that can support a tennis ball at least 18 inches off the ground while withstanding the wind from a fan.

In this activity, learners explore how composites work by creating and testing their own composite for an imaginary company.

In this activity, learners conduct a waste audit and use their findings to implement a plan for reducing trash.

In this activity (page 12), learners explore how molecules self-assemble and how molecules must fit together, like a lock and key, in order to identify each other and initiate a new function as a comb

Look at pictures through different color filters and you'll see them in a new way. People have used color filters in beautiful photography or sending secret messages.
