In this activity (on pages 16-21), learners get a sense of geological time by understanding how big a million is.

In this puzzle, learners investigate the decisions involved in linking a network between houses in a muddy city.

This mirror-tracing activity related to proprioception is a visual and motor test that involves learning a new motor skill.

Put math of measurement into lining up — and make waiting in line fun. Choose a size characteristic that learners can physically compare, such as foot length or hair length.

In this activity, learners build a scale model of the solar system using a roll of toilet paper.

Data in computers is stored and transmitted as a series of zeros and ones. Learners explore how to represent numbers using just these two symbols, through a binary system of cards.

In this activity, learners discover the relationship between temperature and pressure in the lower atmospheres of Jupiter and Earth.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Kites) is a full inquiry investigation into how a kite’s shape affects its performance.

In this space science activity, learners work together to create a human-powered orrery to model the movements of the four inner planets.

¡Este juego de estrategia tiene reglas sencillas pero puede ser un reto! Los jugadores empiezan con una red de hexágonos vacía. En su turno cada jugador pone su inicial en un hexágono vacío.

In this activity related to rotational inertia (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Microgravity), learners will use a bit of scientific experimenting to test if open-faced peanut butter sandwi

This activity (page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Double Dutch) is a full inquiry investigation into whether hearing or seeing has a bigger effect on jump rope performance.

In this math-based activity, learners model the intensity of light at various distances from a light source, and understand how astronomers measure the amount of sunlight that hits our planet and othe

In this activity, learners will plan a snack within a budget. With a $20 limit (theoretical) to spend on snack for everyone, learners look over grocery store circulars and make their shopping lists.

In this activity, learners build a tool called an inclinometer that can find the height of any distant object, from a tree to the North Star.

In this activity, learners will be able to measure themselves in nanometers. A nanometer is a billionth of a meter, a unit of measurement used in nanotechnology.

In this chemistry activity, learners observe a combustion reaction and deduce the components necessary for the reaction to occur.

In this math lesson, learners play a game to identify the properties of prime, composite, abundant, deficient and perfect numbers.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their breathing and pulse rates, and learn how these measurements are affected by physical activity.

In this activity (page 59 of the PDF), learners spin and observe false eyelashes in jars of water (prepared at least 1 day ahead of time) to investigate the effects of different types of motion on the
