In this activity, learners make "totally tubular" forms of carbon. Learners use chicken wire to build macro models of carbon nanotubes.

In this geology activity, learners create a model using a mixture of salt and sand inside a CD case. When the case is tilted or inverted, the mixture dramatically sorts into a layered pattern.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this activity, learners work in groups to design a parachute out of household items that keeps an egg secure when dropped from a certain height.

In this activity, learners solidify their conceptualization of cells by building a model of a cell in a ziplock bag.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.

In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.

In this activity, learners watch a video to learn about a couple who built a home out of shipping containers in Brooklyn, New York.
