This activity was designed for blind learners, but all types of learners can use it to investigate heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures and solutions, identify the differences, and explore the conce

In this activity about afterimages, learners explore what happens when receptor cells called cones in your eye's retina get tired.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Double Dutch), learners will stand twelve feet apart swinging a rope at the slowest tempo possible while someone uses a stopwatch to record

Learners observe a flask with a balloon attached over the mouth and inverted inside the flask.

Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.

In this activity, learners string a line across the room and build cable cars that can move from on end to the other.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Rabbits), learners will visit a zoo, aquarium, or pet store to view a variety of fish.

In this activity, learners discover what happens when they crush wintergreen-flavored candies in a very dark room.

In this activity, learners build unique yo-yos, which spin round and round without moving up and down.

With little more than a plastic bottle, some vinyl tubing, and a length of PVC pipe, make a rocket and a rocket launcher and investigate how rockets fly.

Learners use Benedict’s solution and heat to test for the presence of simple sugars in glucose, sucrose, starch, and starch combined with amylase.

In this activity about phase change and condensation, learners boil water in an empty pop bottle in the microwave.

In this STEAM activity, learners create a "pixel tube" to explore reflections of light and color mixing.

In this fun sticker activity, learners will create a size wheel with images of objects of different size, from macroscopic scale (like an ant) to nanoscale (like DNA).

This kinesthetic science demonstration introduces learners to four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.

In this activity, participants will learn about how gigantic clouds of gas and dust in space, called nebulas, are formed. They'll create their own colorful model nebula using paint and a spinner.

In this activity, learners add different liquids to water and apply their working definition of “dissolving” to their observations.

This is an online exhibit about color perception. Learners set a random background color and then try to mix red, blue, and green light to match.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

In this interactive game, learners listen to the songs of four different thrushes and then try to match each bird with its song.
