Number Sense and Computation: Money Counts
Source Institutions
In this math lesson, learners count and compare amounts of money less than or equal to one dollar.

Soap Bubble Shapes
Source Institutions
Learners explore three-dimensional geometric frames including cubes and tetrahedrons, as they create bubble wands with pipe cleaners and drinking straws.

Where Will It Go?
Source Institutions
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.

Ramps 1: Let it Roll!
Source Institutions
In this activity about ramps, learners explore and measure the rate at which spherical objects roll down a ramp.

Digit's Cyber-Dough
Source Institutions
In this fun hands-on activity, learners whip up a batch of cyber-dough (play dough) using math for measurements.

Sled Kite
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a sled kite that models a type of airfoil called a parawing.

How to Learn Basic Shapes by Making a Shape Mobile
Source Institutions
In this activity, caregivers and young learners work together to craft and talk about shapes and relative positions of such shapes by creating a mobile.

Animal House
Source Institutions
The goal of this activity is to design, build and test a house or toy for an animal.

Parabola Basketball
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build mini-basketball courts and explore the laws of physics. Learners discover that everything you throw or shoot on earth travels in a parabola.

Dr. Vet: Noses, Ears, Legs and Eyes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners practice counting and multiplication as they figure out how many animal body parts they have to examine as "Dr. Vet."

Stereoscope
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners construct a device that allows them to view 2-D images in 3-D.

Magnetic Marble Run
Source Institutions
Learners explore magnetism and motion as they build a simple marble run. Learners test different arrangements of plastic and cardboard tubes, bottles, and cups on a magnetic board.

Silly Putty Investigation
Source Institutions
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.

Strike 'em Down & Add 'em Up!
Source Institutions
In this activity, reuse two-liter bottles to create bowling pins. Learners practice math skills and develop a concept of verifying answers, while bowling and keeping score.

Marble Drop Game
Source Institutions
Build your own version of a favorite carnival game, in which a marble races down a maze consisting of rows of nails.

That's the Way the Ball Bounces: Level 1
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners prepare four polymer elastomers and then compare their physical properties, such as texture, color, size, and bounce height.
Some Sums
Source Institutions
In this math game, learners solve a mind-twisting puzzle using dominoes. Use this activity to help learners practice counting, adding, and solving problems.

Full of Hot Air: Hot Air Balloon Building
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a model of a hot air balloon using tissue paper and a hairdryer. Educators can use this activity to introduce learners to density and its role in why things float.

Straws and Airplanes
Source Institutions
Create airplanes from straws and geometric shapes. Test them out to see how far they can fly, or how accurately they can be aimed.

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