In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.

In this activity, learners create a colorful bookmark using a super thin layer of nail polish on water. Learners discover that a thin film creates iridescent, rainbow colors.

This lesson focuses on how nanotechnology has impacted the design and engineering of many everyday items from paint to fabrics.

This is a hands-on activity exploring how nanoscale particles are used in mineral sunblocks to increase their transparency.

In this activity, learners play a card game that explores the relative sizes of various objects. Learners compete to organize their hand of cards into lists of objects from largest to smallest.

This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

In this activity, learners play a card game that explores different size scales--macro, micro and nano.

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).

In this activity, learners investigate what happens when you build up static electricity on plastic balls.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this movement and measurement activity, learners jump as far as they can three times, and compare their longest jump to the longest jump of their friends, classmates and/or family members.
