This activity provides an opportunity for learners to observe and examine how carbon dioxide, water, and light produce glucose/starch through a process called photosynthesis.

In this activity, learners identify different classes of matter based on physical properties.

In this activity (pages 42-49), learners discover the methods and challenges of building nanoscale structures with macroscale equipment.

Learners drop a magnet through a coil of wire to create electric current in a circuit. LEDs in the circuit allow learners to detect the direction of current flow.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

In this activity, learners use edible models of the DNA molecule to transcribe an mRNA sequence, and then translate it into a protein.

In this activity, learners build edible models of DNA, while learning basic DNA structure and the rules of base pairing.

This guided inquiry three-part activity engages learners in thinking about the mechanism of natural selection through data collection and pattern recognition.

In this activity (pages 32-41), learners learn how the atomic and molecular arrangement of matter are related to physical properties.

In this activity (pages 8-9), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

This simulation helps learners understand what happens to food as it passes through the digestive system.

In this activity, learners use gelatin as a lens to investigate the properties of laser light.

Learners measure irregularly shaped bones using a variety of measurement methods and tools. Then, they measure again using standard conventions and metric tape measures.

This chocolate chip cookie recipe includes templates for baking night sky constellations of the season right on top! Two templates are included, one for 9pm mid-April, and one for 10pm mid-July.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering and principles behind working elevators.

This laboratory exercise is designed to show learners how DNA can easily be extracted from yeast using simple materials.
