In this activity, learners explore how nanosized structures can create brilliant color.

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

In this activity, learners will explore the ways natural materials can produce sounds. Appropriate for any age, learners can make individual music or create a symphony with others.

In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

In this activity, learners will dissect a pumpkin or winter squash to learn the parts of the plant. This activity gets your learner hands on with every part of the plant and will be messy.

In this international citizen science activity, learners measure their night sky brightness and submit their observations into an online database.

In this game, learners match descriptions of marine debris (shoes, batteries, paper towels, etc.) to images of these items.

In this activity, learners examine the properties of different seaweeds, investigate what happens when powdered seaweed (alginate) is added to water, and learn about food products made with seaweed.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

In this activity learners will be creating art using a traditional Japanese art style.

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

In this activity, learners participate in several full-body interactive games to model the process of self-assembly in nature and nanotechnology.

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

In this activity, learners assemble large cubes to make nano-related images. Learners discover how different objects are related to nanoscience and nanotechnology.

In this activity, learners will create a home for animal friends in their backyard using recycled materials. Some material suggestions include: pine straw and twigs.

In this activity, learners investigate how some butterfly wings get their color.

Lakes, streams and other freshwater bodies are a habitat for lots of living things, big and small.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

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.

How do scientists measure how clear or murky water in a lake is? How does water clarity (clearness) affect what lives in the lake?
