Albert Einstein proved that space bends around anything that has mass. This activity uses Jell-O's ability to bend around objects as a model for space bending around planets and stars.

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

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

Using recycled materials, learners will design a transportation vehicle to carry an egg in an egg toss (a rudimentary model of a shock absorbent transport vessel).

In this activity, participants will learn about how gigantic clouds of gas and dust in space, called nebulas, are formed. They'll create their own colorful model nebula using paint and a spinner.

In this activity, learners investigate what happens when you build up static electricity on plastic balls.

In this activity, learners use pegboard and straws to build a three-dimensional model of the periodic table.

By building a model of a lung and diaphragm, learners discover the function of various parts of the body's respiratory system.

In the wild, small crustaceans known as brine shrimp live in marine habitats such as saltwater lakes.

In this activity, learners create a large film of soap and experiment with what can and cannot pass through it.

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

In this activity, learners use bubbles to investigate the structure and unique properties of cell membranes. Bubbles serve as macroscopic models that mimic the cells' phospholipid bilayers.

In this activity, learners create a freshwater ecosystem in a large plastic bottle. Learners cut and prepare bottles, then fill with water, aquatic plants, snails and fish.

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

In this activity, learners cut, fold, and paste paper representing biomolecules to create a three-dimensional cell membrane with embedded proteins.

In this activity, learners explore how distance can affect the way we perceive the size of an object.

Learners follow directions to construct a water-powered electrical generator using a turbine made from plastic spoons.

In this activity, learners create a working model of a nail clipper. This activity helps learners learn the basic principles of simple machines, engineering design and model building.

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