Constellation Detective
Source Institutions
In this quick activity, learners practice locating a constellation in a map of very dark skies.

Minibot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a mini dancing robot. This engineering activity introduces learners to electricity, circuits, switches, conductivity, and motors.

Convection
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

Keep it Cool
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how engineers have met the challenge of keeping foods, liquids, and other items cool.

Depth Perception
Source Institutions
In this easy demonstration (3rd on the page), learners explore depth perception by conducting a test with two pencils.

Jitterbugs
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct bug models that "jitter" all over the table with just a battery, motor, and counterweight.

Pupil to Pupil
Source Institutions
In this quick and simple activity about reflexes (at the top of the webpage), learners conduct a simple test to explore pupillary response.

The Braille Alphabet
Source Institutions
In this activity (8th activity on the page) about the sense of touch, learners make their own set of Braille letters. Learners use glue to make raised dots on a Braille Alphabet Sheet.

The Senses of "Unknown Creatures"
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use earthworms as "unknown creatures" from the South American jungle to find out how animals use senses.

Supernova Star Maps
Source Institutions
This fun astronomy activity allows learners to experience finding stars in the night sky that will eventually go supernova. This activity is perfect for a star party outdoors.

Sock It To Me!
Source Institutions
In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

Turning the Air Upside Down: Spinning Snakes
Learners color and cut out a spiral-shaped snake. When they hang their snake over a radiator, the snake spins.

Making Circuits
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore electricity and conductivity to find that many things conduct electricity including copper, pencil lead, fruit, play-doh, and even people!

Keeps on Pumpin': Your Heart
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the great pump in their chests--the human heart!

Cabbage Chemistry
Source Institutions
In this chemistry activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners make an acid-base indicator using cabbage. Learners then explore how various subtances react with this indicator.

Dinosaur Skull and Body Length Predictions
Source Institutions
In this activity (located on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Baby Dinosaurs Activity), learners will look for a relationship between skull size and body length among various dinosaurs.

Sea Turtle Populations
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 2 of PDF under GPS: Sea Turtles Activity), learners will model how a sea turtle population changes over time, from eggs to adults, using puffed rice.

Right Ear/Left Ear
Source Institutions
In this activity (4th on the page), learners conduct a series of tests to find out which of their ears is more dominant.

Jump to It!
Source Institutions
This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (second activity on the page).

Extreme Kicking Machine
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity follow up to "Kicking Machine", learners add a hands-free feature to their Kicking Machine.
