In this activity about ramps, learners explore and measure the rate at which spherical objects roll down a ramp.

Make a rattle-like musical instrument! Shake it, hit it, spin it any way you want to!

In this activity (located on page 7 of PDF), learners explore how Silly Putty was first invented and then attempt to make a batch of their own.

In this activity, learners will be working with a sort of scientific magic, capillary action! They will set up 3 cups of water of different colors, connect them with paper towels and wait.

In this engineering activity (page 5 of PDF), young learners investigate how materials and design contribute to the strength of a structure, particularly walls.

In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.

In this inquiry-based learning activity, learners design, build, and test their own ramps. They are introduced to a variety of materials and explore putting them together.

In this activity, learners of all ages can become food scientists by experimenting with flour and water to make basic pasta.

In this activity, learners play a game and use pattern blocks to explore mirror images and reflection.

In this group activity, learners will explore the characteristics, functions and uniqueness of the mangrove tree.

In this activity, learners build magnetic towers to explore the forces and properties of magnets.

Learners explore soybeans, soak them in water to remove their coat, and then split them open to look inside. They also make a musical shaker out of paper cups, a cardboard tube, and soybeans.

In this activity, learners create colorful bead bracelets to wear outside while searching for matching colors in plants. Learners will be surprised by the variety of colors in nature.

In this outdoor, nighttime activity, learners gather around a brightly lit, white surface and study the behavior of nocturnal animals attracted to the light, particularly night fliers.

In this sunny day, outdoor activity, learners observe changes in shadows over time. The activity also helps to develop a sense of the Earth's motion.

This activity uses a special paper that can create images with exposure to the Sun. Collect objects of different shapes and sizes and use them to make interesting patterns on your sun print.

In this activity, learners will build ramps and test how the laws of physics apply do different objects. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

In this activity, learners make or use pre-made clay beams to scale and proportion. Specifically, they discover that when you scale up proportionally (i.e.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.
