In this activity, learners simulate what happens to a human spine in space by making Sponge Spool Spines (alternating sponge pieces and spools threaded on a pipe cleaner).

Learners conduct a "blind" taste-test of several types of enhanced or fitness water drinking water that has commercially added substances like vitamins, sugars, or herbs.

In this outdoor archaeology activity, learners use mathematical skills and scientific inquiry to generate and process information from their own excavation site.

Learners smell balloons filled with different scents to guess what's inside. From this, they infer the presence and motion of scented molecules.

This activity (on pages 16-23) lets learners measure each other's vital signs—the signs that help doctors understand what's going on in a patient body.

In this environmental science activity, learners research what is essential for plant life and the necessary components of soil to support plants.

In this activity (on page 134 of the PDF), learners explore reaction time.

In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

Millions of organisms can live in and around a body of water.

This is an activity about lung capacity. Learners will measure their own lung capacity using a homemade spirometer.

In this activity, learners explore how salt water freezes in comparison to fresh water.

In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this outdoor activity, learners review the parts of the synapse and their functions by playing a game.

In this activity about light and refraction, learners make a lens and magnifying glass by filling a bowl with water.

This is an activity where learners will compare the different metamorphosis stages of amphibians.

In this drawing/mapping activity, learners design plots of land while incorporating positive strategies for improving water quality.

In this quick optics activity, learners use a dim point of light (a disassembled Mini MagLite and dowel set-up) to cast a shadow of the blood supply in their retina onto the retina itself.

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

In this group activity, learners will mark important developments of life on Earth on a timeline (each foot in length representing 200 million years).

In this activity on page 1 of the PDF, learners compare the relative sizes of biological objects (like DNA and bacteria) that can't be seen by the naked eye.
