In this laboratory activity, learners design an experiment to evaluate how environmental factors influence the growth of molds.

In this activity, learners conduct a scientific investigation involving decomposition and discover that the life cycle of trash is affected by its organic or inorganic nature.

In this physical sciences activity, learners use science to solve a "crime." Learners collect trace evidence (glitter) and explore its characteristics, such as color, size, shape, and light reflection

In this demonstration, learners explore a variation of a Foucault pendulum, but upside down.

In this activity, learners use cooperation and logical thinking to find solutions to network problems on the playground.

This exercise can be used to stimulate the investigative nature of learners as they use forensic plant pathology techniques to prove the learners' innocence in a mock murder investigation.

In this activity (on page 1), learners role play as atoms to explore how atoms can be rearranged to make different materials.

In this activity, learners follow clues to find five puzzle pieces, then assemble them. This activity works well with a whole group, individuals, or families.

In this activity, learners are challenged, using everyday objects, to create simple machines to complete specific tasks.

In this activity, learners overlap the three primary colors to see how all other colors are made.

In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook

This activity puts a mathematical twist on the familiar “guessing jar.” No guesses allowed, estimates only.

In this technology activity, learners explore digital imaging and pixels. Learners "transmit" an image to a partner by creating an image on grid paper.

In this activity, learners design unique tiles and make repeating patterns to create tessellations. This activity combines the creativity of an art project with the challenge of solving a puzzle.

In this activity, learners will learn how to knit using only their hands. Learners will explore patterns and fabrication as well as develop fine motor skills and patience through this activity.

Learners attach an egg to a rubber-band bungee cord and drop the egg.

In this activity, learners build a model roller coaster to help the Mummy entertain the Atom's Family monsters. Learners assemble the roller coaster between two chairs using vinyl ceiling molding.

In this activity, learners discover the principles of edible glass by making a supersaturated sugar solution.

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.

In this quick activity, Dracula has a hole in his house and learners help solve the problem by using a mirror and protractor to reflect incoming light out of his house.
