In this activity, learners predict where a ball will go after it bounces off another object. Learners discover that the motion of objects is predictable based on laws of motion.

In this activity, learners make a paper model of a polymer, then make Silly Putty, an actual polymer.

In this playful, goopy activity, learners mix two liquids to create a solid (that sometimes acts like a liquid ), using basic household materials such as borax and glue.

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 construct speedy vehicles made out of paper plates and powered by twisted rubber bands.

In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, size, and bounce height.

In this activity about transfer of energy, learners get to build their own catapult using nothing more than a plastic spoon and some tape.

In this activity, learners will create an optical illusion top. Learners will explore color mixing, physics and design through this activity.

In this activity, learners will build thier own balance scale. Learners will explore weight and comparison through this activity.

In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

In this game, learners take turns guessing toy animals from around their house based on the toy's characteristics.

In this hands-on activity, learners build their own kaleidoscopes and explore how light can reflect of off surfaces such as mirrors, to produce beautiful patterns.

In this physics activity (page 12 of the PDF), learners explore potential and kinetic energy by rolling different sized marbles down an inclined plane.

In this activity, learners design a device to solve a problem: how to get a ball out of a drain pipe.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.

In this activity, learners will create their own bubble solution. Learners will explore chemistry, geometry and trial and error through this activity.
