In this demonstration, learners discover that nanoparticles behave differently, in part because they have a high surface area to volume ratio.

Create 3D glasses and use them to explore color, light and optics. Fool your brain into 'seeing' three dimensions on a flat surface!

In this activity, learners use multiple thermometers, placed at different angles, and a lamp to investigate why some places on Earth's surface are much hotter than others.

Fat is a very important component in our diet. It's the most efficient source of energy in our bodies, and plays an important role in the flavor of foods.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners create 3D models of the Earth, Moon and Sun to demonstrate solar and lunar eclipses.

In this activity, learners of all ages will experiment with paint and printmaking.

Using pipe cleaners, straws, and beads, learners explore the building blocks of life by creating their own model of DNA.

In this activity, learners will build a simple electromagnet. They will test variables that would make the electromagnet stronger.

In this yummy biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners participate in a demonstration of natural selection.

This is an activity about lung capacity. Learners will measure their own lung capacity using a homemade spirometer.

In this activity, learners investigate how inkjet printers produce tiny, precise drops of ink.

In this activity on page 1 of the PDF, learners compare the relative sizes of biological objects (like DNA and bacteria) that can't be seen by the naked eye.

Why should we wear masks? Do masks work? Do some masks work better than others? Learners find out in this activity.

In this activity learners will be creating art using a traditional Japanese art style.

In this activity, learners build a tool called an inclinometer that can find the height of any distant object, from a tree to the North Star.

In this physics activity, learners build their own rockets out of film canisters and construction paper.

The goal of this activity is to build a miniature bobsled that is either the fastest or the slowest. Learners use recycled materials to design, build, and test their bobsled on a bobsled track.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners make 3-dimensional models of the Earth and Moon.

In this activity, learners make a model of a one-way heart valve to investigate how a heart controls the direction of blood flow.

In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.
