In this activity, learners test how cornstarch and glitter in water move when disturbed. Learners compare their observations with videos of Jupiter's and Earth's storm movements.

In this activity, learners work in teams to investigate the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force as described in Newton's second law of motion.

This is an activity (located on page 4 of the PDF under What's Nano? Activity) about size and scale.

Learners investigate weight by building a spring scale. They observe and record how it responds to objects with different masses.

In this activity, learners model ancient lunar impacts using water balloons.

In this activity, learners conduct a series of hands-on experiments that demonstrate how the working of plants' veins, known as capillary action, enables water to travel throughout the length of a pla

In this activity, learners create a toy that demonstrates the First Law of Thermodynamics or the Law of Conservation of Energy.

Learners turn over a random selection of cards from a larger set. From the words revealed, they try to determine the sentence represented on the larger set of cards.

Learners investigate a pre-constructed mystery tube to determine its interior mechanism.

In this wintertime outdoor activity, learners role play wolves tracking their prey by following scented trails.

In this activity, pairs of learners model how scientists use craters to determine the ages of lunar surfaces. One partner keeps time while the other creates a painting for the other to interpret.

Learners construct and launch paper helicopters.

This activity shows you how to make a mold terrarium using a jar and leftover food.

In this outdoor activity and/or field trip, learners investigate the behavior of hopping animals.

Learners use their knowledge of color changes with red cabbage indicator to neutralize an acidic solution with a base and then neutralize a basic solution with an acid.

In this activity about light and reflection, learners discover that what you see is often affected by what you expect to see.

In this online interactive, learners use fossils to infer temperatures 55 million years ago, at the sites where the fossils were found.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

In this activity, learners construct speedy vehicles made out of paper plates and powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this activity, learners add objects and substances to carbonated water to discover that added objects increase the rate at which dissolved gas comes out of solution.
