Can gelatin (like Jell-O ®) change the speed of light?

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

In this activity, learners use a flashlight, a glass of water, and some milk to examine why the sky is blue and sunsets are red.

In this activity, learners work in groups to design a parachute out of household items that keeps an egg secure when dropped from a certain height.

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

In this three-part activity, learners use food to determine the effects of wind, sandblasting and water on regolith (dust) formation and deposition on Earth.

In this yummy earth science activity (page 5 of the PDF), learners use fudge to learn about different kinds of lava.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection by encouraging them to formulate questions that can be answered through scientific investi

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

Just like birds, some dinosaurs had air-filled (pneumatic) bones, which made the dinosaurs' skeletons lighter.

Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

In this outdoor, winter activity, learners find living green plants under the snow and determine the light and temperature conditions around the plants.

This activity features two connected hands-on activities about dinosaur bones.
