Learners conduct an experiment to determine the rate at which two materials, sand and water, heat up and cool down.

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 math lesson, learners identify, describe, and construct the five regular polyhedra.

In this outdoor activity (on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Baseball Activity), learners will investigate the transfer of energy using sports equipment.

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

In this activity, learners determine the shape of an unseen object by bouncing a ball off the object.

In this interdisciplinary activity, learners create a Space Weather Action Center (SWAC) to monitor solar storms and develop real SWAC news reports.

In this activity, learners explore chemistry and the microbial world by making their own sourdough starter and bread at home using only flour and water.

The purpose of this plant biotechnology activity is to demonstrate the effect of changes in the environment on the growth and fertility of landscape grasses and crop grasses such as wheat and rice.

In this activity, learners measure and calculate the amount of cubic feet various containers contain. Next, learners investigate cubic feet per second (cps), by carrying jugs in one second.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this activity (on page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Soccer Ball Kick), learners will investigate the transfer of energy using sports equipment.

In this health activity, learners explore breathing, lungs and asthma. Learners test their lung capacity by blowing air into balloons.

In this activity, learners "dance" (move back and forth at varying speeds) by reading a graph. This is a kinesthetic way to help learners interpret and understand how motion is graphed.

In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.

In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

In this sports-themed engineering activity, learners create super bouncy balls out of balloons. Learners brainstorm, test their designs, and share results.
