In this activity, learners measure and calculate the amount of cubic feet various containers contain. Next, learners investigate cubic feet per second (cps), by carrying jugs in one second.

Spin in an office chair holding milk jugs! Plus, learn physics. Very fun (but stay safe) activity from the Exploratorium Science Snacks series.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (fourth activity on the page). One learner stands behind a see-through barrier like a window or wire screen.

In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.

In this activity, learners balance chemical equations and discover the law of conservation of mass. Learners use coins to model molecules to balance the equations.

In this online interactive simulation, learners will add different salts to water and then watch the salts dissolve and achieve a dynamic equilibrium with solid precipitate.

In this activity, learners will review the functions of basic digestive organs, understand how diet affects digestion, understand how digestive tracks may differ, and then step outside to compare the

Exponga estos pósteres en el salón o déjelos donde los chicos los puedan explorar. Los chicos buscan las respuestas en línea, en libros de consulta, y en calendarios y almanaques.

This lesson plan revolves around studying the speciation of the Galápagos mockingbirds, which are on display at the California Academy of Sciences.

In this activity, learners make a scale model of an atom to see how big or how small an atom is compared to its nucleus. Learners will realize that most of matter is just empty space!

In this activity related to the famous "Stroop Effect," learners explore how words influence what we see and how the brain handles "mixed messages." Learners read colored words and are asked to say th

In this activity (6th on the page), learners investigate how photoreceptors in the eye (rods and cones) "adapt" to low light conditions.

In this activity, learners use pedigree and jigsaw puzzles to explore how scientists use genetic information from a family to identify a gene associated with a genetic disorder.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this online activity, learners find out whether they are smart enough to survive as a plant.

In this easy demonstration (3rd on the page), learners explore depth perception by conducting a test with two pencils.

In this quick and simple activity about reflexes (at the top of the webpage), learners conduct a simple test to explore pupillary response.

In this activity (7th activity on the page), learners use their sense of touch to identify mystery objects hidden in socks.

This is a quick and simple demonstration about reflexes (second activity on the page).

In this activity, learners will explore trends in Canada goose populations using real data from the National Audubon Society's Christmas Bird Count.
