This is an activity in which learners will find that they can detect differences in concentration better with their nose (smelling) than with their eyes (seeing).

In this activity, participants will learn how stars form from the dust and gas that exists in space clumping together.

In this game, learners explore the different sizes of things in the world. In this Twister-like game, learners must place a hand or foot on a circle of the right scale - macro, micro, or nano.

In this activity, learners create a necklace of wheat germ DNA. Learners add alcohol to wheat germ so that the DNA clumps together.

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.

In this activity, learners will use their five senses to explore a nature-based area around them.

In this activity, learners will experiment to find how long it takes to compost paper. They will create their own compost container and test different variables.

In this activity, learners will explore how different colors of lights interact with objects around them. Will a blue object stay blue with a red filter?

In this game, learners try to find nano-related objects on a game board. Learners investigate the different ways nano is in the world around us.

Exponga estos pósteres en el salón o déjelos donde los chicos los puedan explorar. Los chicos buscan las respuestas en libros de consulta, explorando el salón, y usando su creatividad.

This activity models the way Landsat satellites use a thermal infrared sensor to measure land surface temperatures.

In this card-based personal choice activity, learners review and sort COVID-19 and vaccine science information.

In "Chemistry Makes Scents," participants use their noses to distinguish between chemicals with very similar structures.

In this activity, learners will investigate and compare the root systems of plants. Explore how weed and edible plant roots differ, and take a closer look inside with the careful use of a knife!

Learners make self-assembled polymer spheres as a model for the lipid nanoparticles found in COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.

"Sublimation Bubbles" allows learners to explore how some solid materials, such as dry ice, can phase change directly from their solid to gaseous form.

"What's in the Water" lets participants use tools to solve the mystery- what chemicals and compounds are in a sample of water?
