In this weather activity which requires adult supervision, learners will get a chance to make a cloud right here on Earth!

In this astronomy activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will examine the effects of gravity on a person’s pulse and explore how gravity can differ from planet to planet.

In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will make a can that will roll back after it has been rolled away to observe the interactions of kinetic and potential energy.

In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

In this colorful activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will make a multicolor density column by using different concentrations of sugar solutions.

In this activity, learners will design a protective package for an egg that will allow the egg to withstand a fall without cracking.

In this genetics activity, learners extract DNA from an onion, using detergent solution, a food processor, and rubbing alcohol. They will also discuss genetic engineering of plants.

In this engineering activity, learners investigate the differences between the strength of bridges made from flat and round building materials.

In this health activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will discover why covering their mouth and nose while sneezing is so important.

This is an activity about waves. Using marbles, paper clips and rubber bands, learners explore how waves behave.

In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will observe a chemical change, specifically what happens to iodine when it is applied to ripe and unripe apples.

In this activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will observe both a chemical and a physical change.

In this Energy and Environment activity (page 9 of the PDF), learners calculate the mass of a piece of gum, compare it to the mass of the gum's packaging, and then create a bar graph of the results.

In this activity (page 7 of the PDF), learners will investigate the contents of owl pellets. Learners will discover how owls digest their food as well as the kind of animals they eat.

In this physics activity, learners will gain a better understanding of how friction, inertia, and mass affect objects.

In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will make their very own working compass.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

In this activity, which requires adult supervision, learners get to explore the awesome power of chemistry.

In this physics activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore how similar magnetic poles repel one another. They will rely on linear induction to race magnets around a simple course.

In this physics activity (page 6 of the PDF), learners will explore how static electricity affects surrounding objects.
