This lab activity has learners create a pendulum with a one-second period.

In this activity (located on pages 23-24 of the PDF), learners are introduced to structural engineering and encouraged to practice goal-oriented building.

The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

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

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this activity, learners will perform various investigations to understand the vestibular-ocular reflex and learn about the importance of visual cues in maintaining balance.

In this activity, learners carry out a scientific investigation of dust in their classroom. Learners produce an analysis on graph paper of the dust they collect over the course of a few days.

In this activity, learners set up an experiment to investigate the effects of hot air on the path of a laser beam.

In this activity, learners observe colors in the flame of a burning candle to explore connections between matter, light, color and temperature -- basic concepts of matter and energy.

Learners build and investigate pendulums of different lengths. They discover that the longer the string of the pendulum, the longer the time it takes to swing.

Learners investigate stress and strain by designing, building, and testing beams made from polymer clay.
