This activity is on page 3 (continued on page 2) of the pdf, part of the Simple Machines Discovery Box. In this fun activity, learners "create" a complex machine by simulating the parts in action.

In this fun activity about spiders, learners build and design a spider from cardstock, straw, string, and pipe cleaners.

This is an activity about waves. Using marbles, paper clips and rubber bands, learners explore how waves behave.

This activity investigates how bark beetles can threaten forests by having learners estimate the number of infected trees from a photo.

This fun and simple hands-on astronomy activity lets learners explore the difference between telescope magnification and resolution.

In this activity about the solar system, learners use various light sources to examine ice with different components to understand how NASA studies planets and moons from space.

In this quick activity, learners explore how blubber protects animals from the cold by making a "blubber mitt." Using cooking shortening, two zip-top sandwich bags, and duct tape, learners simulate bl

In this three part activity, learners explore and experiment with shadows to learn about the Sun's relative motion in the sky.

In this activity, learners model the flow of energy from the sun as it enters a photovoltaic cell, moves along a wire and powers a load.

This online interactive has three activities in the NanoLab (press the upper right button): Build, Zoom, and Transform.

In this activity, learners use sieves with different-sized holes to sort balls by size.

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

This is an online simulation of how sound changes due to environment. How does place--like a cave, a pier, or a forest--affect certain sounds?

This game plays a dozen different sounds, altered to simulate what they would sound like if you had hearing loss.
