In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

In this activity (on page 14 of PDF), learners use a pan full of flour and some rocks to create a moonscape.

This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.

In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.

In this activity, learners carry out a scientific investigation of dust in their classroom. Learners produce an analysis on graph paper of the dust they collect over the course of a few days.

In this activity, learners explore how a hydraulic pump works. Learners work in teams to design and build a unique water fountain that employs a hydraulic pump.

Learners work in groups to construct bridges using stale marshmallows and toothpicks.

In this activity, "space cadets" (learners) use writing and sequencing skills in addition to directional words/ordered pairs to guide Buzz Lightyear (from the movie "Toy Story") through a grid to reac

In this activity, learners explore sports engineering and advanced materials development.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this activity, learners explore the concept of how engineering solved the problem of human/computer interface.

In this activity, learners create a tiny electric, motorized dancer. Learners use the interactions of magnetism and electric current to make a wire spin, while displaying the Lorentz Force in action.

Learners design different shaped bandages for different purposes. First, they draw their designs on paper.

In this activity, learners play a series of simple games to investigate navigation without visual and sound cues.

In this engineering activity, learners design parachutes to give toy figures safe landings. This activity is great for practicing an important STEM skill--changing only one variable at a time.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

Learners compare the properties and solubilities of Styrofoam (TM), ecofoam packing peanuts, and popcorn. First, the solubility of each substance is tested in water.

In this activity, learners explore the many uses of periscopes and how this simple device was designed and is used in many applications.

In this activity about olfaction (7th activity on the page), learners use natural ingredients to concoct their own perfume.
